Lockn' seems pretty tight with their data, has that info ever been released?
here is an interesting read on festival demographics from the UK, 2017

The question I am left with is: Am I spending more per year on music by getting the records for cheap but paying more for my shows? And, if I am, are the extra experiences worth that difference?
Personally I think this is a better dynamic because the music is effectively free online which allows me to listen to so many more artists without having to take a risk on a shitty album. That in turn opens me up to new acts I can see live for $30. Coachella and it’s ilk are more about being seen than seeing, so if people want to pay for that, I guess that is their prerogative.

edit:
They actually lose money on concerts but make it up on tickets and sponsorship. Can't really see how they account for the revenue/loss of concerts, I guess that means just the money they make on site, tickets excluded? not sure.

Of course, there were exceptions for the show bands like Alice Cooper, Elton John, but even the Stones, as well as Deep Purple, Charlie Daniels, Jethro Tull, were basic.
And the tickets ran $5 to $8. Now with basic tickets at what, $50 minimum? up to $300 and that's box office, the bands have to give more than their music, and then have to charge more.
Wouldn't it be nice if they'd get together for reverse price fixing, drop the price, eliminate the stage show, play the music and be done with it? I for one won't pay arena prices; the cost for one night's recreation isn't worth it to me and so I stick with the small venues. And recently Bill Reid, who's been in the business forever, told me he thinks the 700 seat venues are the future of the business, and he's done plenty of arena shows.
