gate receipts

Admission revenue collected

Gate receipts are the total money collected from admission fees at an event—a concert, sporting match, or other ticketed gathering.

The term comes from the gate where attendees enter and pay.

The charity match generated impressive gate receipts.

Often shortened to just the gate: The promoter takes twenty percent of the gate.
