The backdrop: Pent-up demand coming out of the pandemic yielded a boom across all live events, with StubHub's global sales more than doubling in 2022 compared to 2021.

What they're saying: "Bucket-list events are what drive the biggest demand, and we very much saw that was the case this year," StubHub chief business officer Cris Miller tells Axios.

• "They continue to draw even wider sets of audiences as event tourism becomes increasingly popular."
• "F1 and the World Cup — our highest-selling ever — are likely the best demonstration of that."
