As we close another year of content on BizBash, we rejoice in taking a look back at what stories really resonated with our readers in 2024. Not surprisingly, certain tentpole events like Cannes Lions and CES made the top 25 in page views once again, as did (of course) much of our festival coverage from Coachella to Lollapalooza to Dreamville. Major sporting events like the NBA All-Star Weekend in Indy and Super Bowl LVIII (duh) also grabbed readers' attention. See what else piqued the most interest this year...
