TicketNews®' top events rankings for the week ending November 25, 2012, remained relatively similar compared to those from the previous week. While there were some shake ups in position, there were only two newcomers.

Leading the pack for the second consecutive week is The Red Tour from Taylor Swift and special guest Ed Sheeran. Tickets for the majority Taylor Swift's The Red Tour went on sale to the general public back on November 16. The 2013 stadium and arena tour saw many of its dates sell out in a matter of minutes from going on sale. There are still a handful of dates that have yet to go on sale including two shows in Los Angeles, CA which will be released on December 7, one in Newark, NJ with an onsale date of December 21, and Charlottesville, VA tickets will be released February 22.

TicketNews Exclusive Rankings and Power Scores are based on ticket sales from the TicketNetwork Exchange™. Two factors are used to calculate a power score: total ticket sales from the given event and total ticket sales within the category. Since the sum of all events' power scores equals 100 in any given category, an individual event's Power Score represents its category-specific significance. Top Event Power Scores should only be used to compare events within a particular category, and not across categories.
