For most people, going to a concert is a group experience. Over 80% of all ticket purchases are for at least two people, according to data provided on US and Canadian concert-goers to Quartz from the ticket marketplace Vivid Seats. Most often, those tickets are purchased in pairs, but 13% are for four tickets or more.

Yet some concertgoers refuse to miss out, even if nobody can join them. The willingness to buy a single ticket seems to largely depend on the type of concert. Overall, only 16% of purchases on Vivid Seats are for single tickets. That number is much higher for certain genres.
