From Billboard, 1/25/18, which placed Barclays Center CEO Brett Yormark on its Power 100 list in the business of music, at #97:
Then, on 10/2/18, Billboard ranked Barclays #5 internationally--and fourth domestically--on the 2018 Arena Power List, which covers revenue "during a recent 12-month period."
So that's likely overlapping. The 12-month gross is $80.52 million, which represents a 3.8% downtick.
The listing:
BRETT YORMARK, 51Note of course that gross revenue does not equal net revenue, or profit. That $83.7 million figure does not relate to sports events but rather concerts and, I believe, family shows.
CEO, Brooklyn Sports & Entertainment [it's now BSE Global]
Last Year's Rank: New
ACHIEVEMENT OF THE YEAR: Reopened the Nassau Coliseum on New York's Long Island as NYCB Live after a $180 million renovation.
THE YEAR AHEAD: Through BSE's properties, which will soon include the recently acquired Webster Hall and Paramount Theater, Yormark is creating a pipeline that will allow acts to grow within the family. "It's about connecting with artists early and often in their careers, using smaller venues to do that," he says. Meanwhile, Brooklyn flagship Barclays Center marked its fifth anniversary and was the third-highest-grossing U.S. venue, with $83.7 million in revenue.

12-Month Gross: $80.52 million
While Paul McCartney scored the highest gross of the measurement period ($4.4 million for two nights in September 2017), Brett Yormark, CEO of BSE Global, which runs the arena, says a point of local pride was the Tidal X concert that took place last October, during which Brooklyn’s own Jay-Z joined with New York natives Jennifer Lopez and Cardi B as well as Stevie Wonder to raise $3.7 million to benefit hurricane victims in Puerto Rico, Texas and elsewhere. “The show made a difference beyond the walls of Barclays,” says Yormark. The arena also opened Featured on Flatbush, a space filled with merchandise from performers and local up-and-coming designers, in the past year.
