After completion, MDNA became the tenth highest-grossing tour of all time, grossing $305.2 million from 88 sold-out shows; it also became the second highest-grossing for a female artist behind Madonna's own Sticky & Sweet Tour. Billboard named it the most lucrative tour of 2012, making it Madonna's third time closing a year at the top of the box office heap, the others being 2009 and 2004. The artist also joined the Rolling Stones, the Grateful Dead and Bon Jovi as the only acts to be Billboards highest-grossing tour twice in a three-year span. Madonna was awarded Top Touring Artist at the 2013 Billboard Music Awards.
