Adele bags £21.5k per day as 2024 earnings revealed after lucrative residency shows

Adele enjoyed much success last year, including the singer having completed residencies in Las Vegas and Munich, and she's said to have earned around £21,500 a day in 2024

Adele earned around £21,500 a day last year to add to her growing £170m fortune.

The global superstar has a range of firms that take in cash from music sales, publishing deals and live performances. In her Melted Stone Publishing Ltd, she has cash deposits of £13.5m, her Melted Stone Ltd had £6m while A. Adkins Touring Ltd has a modest £42,000. Companies House accounts for 2023 revealed that Adele paid £1,549,958 in Corporation Tax across the three firms, pointing to earnings of £7.7m.

Adele, 36, is one of the world's best-selling music artists, with sales of over 120m records worldwide. The cash continues to roll in from record sales and royalties despite her last album, 30, coming out in 2022. As well as the UK best-selling female artist of the 21st century, she was named best-selling artist of the 2010s worldwide.

Despite a tough fitness regime, health issues meant she had to postpone dates of her Las Vegas residency, 'Weekends with Adele'. That run of shows helped her to regain her love of life performing. The residency was also very good for her bank balance.

Each show at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace was performed to sell out crowds and made around $1.75m. The Rolling in the Deep singer also did a run of gigs in Munich, her first in Europe since 2106.

Her UK tax bill has been a source of annoyance in the past. At the time she released her first album 19, she voiced her opposition to the top rate of tax. She said: "I'm mortified to have to pay 50 percent...I can't use the public transport any more. Trains are always late, most state schools are s*** and I've gotta give you, like, four million quid - are you having a laugh?"

The Sunday Times Rich List calculated her wealth at £170m in May, 2024, up from £165m in 2023. It was exclusively reported by the Mirror last month that Adele will release a concert film of her record-breaking residency in Munich and an accompanying documentary. The latter is set to how the custom-built arena was created and how the shows came about.

Insiders said there are plans for it to go out on a streaming service. A source said: "The Munich concerts were so unique that it made sense to release a concert film. There were cameras there every night capturing every magical moment. Fans will be able to see Adele at her best on stage, while also learning about the incredible engineering feat that was needed to build the unique venue."
