An aerial view of Carter-Finley Stadium and Lenovo Center in Raleigh, North Carolina. N.C. State Athletics pulled in somewhere between $3.2 million and $3.8 million from two concerts at Carter-Finley Stadium this past July. Live Nation paid the university a $400,000 base license fee per show. The Noah Kahan show on July 25 sold out Carter-Finley Stadium. The model allows Carter-Finley Stadium to become a revenue-producing asset during the offseason months when football isn't happening.
