Women's Economic Power and Spending

The summer of 2022 showcased the power of women's spending, driven by increased earning potential, delayed childbirth, and the self-care movement. Women are now having more money and agency over how they spend, prioritizing experiences that bring them joy. This was evident in the success of pop culture events like Barbie's box office success ($1.38 billion), Taylor Swift's Eris tour (projected $4.6 billion), and Beyonce's tour ($2 billion). Women-driven mega events are capitalizing on the post-pandemic pent-up spending and resonating with audiences who feel seen and heard by these experiences.
