Laszczyk highlighted that Madison Square Garden is experiencing a strong environment for event bookings at its venues, fueled by both a healthy supply of concert tours and a growing fan interest in live entertainment. This dual factor is positioned to drive notable growth in upcoming events. Notably, there is a particular emphasis on the potential for the Christmas Spectacular, which despite achieving record performance in fiscal 2024, is expected to generate significant revenue in fiscal 2025.
The analyst estimates that revenues from the Christmas Spectacular could reach around $157 million in fiscal 2025, attributing this to an increase in the number of shows, better ticket sales, and higher ticket prices. Laszczyk also projects sponsorship revenues to rise to $286 million for the same period, indicating healthy growth compared to previous years. The recent decline in MSGE’s stock price is seen as a buying opportunity, presenting an attractive investment for those looking to tap into the dynamics of the live event business. As of the latest data, shares of Madison Square Garden entertainment were trading up by 1.10%, reaching $39.40.
