O prêmio se baseia principalmente na quantidade de ingressos vendidos para selecionar os vencedores. Apresentações ocorridas entre outubro de 2015 e setembro de 2016 podiam concorrer.
Beyoncé aparece na disputa com a “Formation Tour”, do álbum “Lemonade”; Coldplay com sua Head Full of Dreams Tour; enquanto Bruce Springsteen fez a “River Tour”. Os três disputam nas categorias Top Tour, de turnê mais lucrativa, e Top Draw, de maior quantidade de ingressos vendidos.
Adele, The Weeknd e o Twenty One Pilots concorrem a Breakthrough Tour, que premia a turnê de um artista que começou a fazer grandes apresentações.
A premiação acontece no dia 9 de novembro.
