The announcement photo may look familiar to fans, as she donned the same glittery attire on the cover of her seventh studio album. Bey also added “Renaissance World Tour” on her Instagram bio, further accenting the news. Last week, Beyonce performed a full concert for the first time in four years at a luxury resort in Dubai in front of influencers and journalists. The 19-song set included a collaboration with her oldest daughter Blue Ivy as the two performed “Brown Skin Girl,” which earned them a Grammy two years ago for best music video.
Crowned a triumphant win by music lovers, Renaissance stormed to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 last year and rattled off two Hot 100 top 10 hits, including her chart-topper “Break My Soul.” The dance-centric album also notched nine Grammy nominations, the most for any nominee for this year’s ceremony. Bey is looking to rack up more trophy wins, as she currently sits at a staggering 28 wins. Nominated for album of the year, song, and record of the year, Bey is facing some stout competition , especially in the former. The R&B juggernaut will tango against Adele, Harry Styles, Kendrick Lamar, Bad Bunny, and more for album of the year. A win in this category would serve as Beyonce’s first. The 65th Grammy Awards will occur Sunday night in Los Angeles at 8 pm EST.

When is Beyoncé’s Renaissance Tour Coming to Australia? Here’s What We Know
Whether you’re a casual listener or a ride-or-die member of the Bey-Hive, there’s no denying that Beyoncé is an expert at captivating an audience.
Despite performing her final concert in October 2023, social media has remained flooded with endless snippets of Beyoncé’s most recent on-stage escapade – the Renaissance World Tour.
Since her first performance in Sweden on May 10, 2023, the former Destiny’s Child star dazzled audiences across Europe and North America with her elaborate costumes, legendary vocals, and captivating Ballroom-inspired performances.
While the North American leg of her tour came to an end in October 2023, the release of her newest album, Cowboy Carter , has left many fans wondering if a second instalment of her tour is on the horizon and, most importantly, if she will finally bring the tour to Australia.

Where can you get tickets?
Tickets for the North American leg of the tour will be available through Ticketmaster's Verified Fan program. Tickets will go on sale Monday, Feb 6, with an exclusive presale to BeyHive members, according to a Live Nation press release.
Verified Fan registration is now open. Once you register, you'll be placed in a lottery system that determines which fans get invited to purchase tickets. Registration alone doesn't guarantee tickets. If you're selected, you'll get an access code the day before tickets go on sale. Everyone else will be placed on a waitlist. According to Live Nation, this process is intended to help Ticketmaster weed out the resellers and verify your account so that actual fans get priority to buy tickets.
Register for Tickets
Citi cardmembers will have a special Citi Presale after the Verified Fan process. Get more details here . Verizon will also offer an exclusive presale through their customer loyalty program Verizon Up .
Will Beyoncé be using Ticketmaster like Taylor Swift to sell tickets?
Yes, but given what happened with Taylor Swift's Eras tour (and the fact it led to Congressional hearings about Ticketmaster ’s practices), it seems very likely both Beyoncé and Ticketmaster would want to avoid repeating that mess. That most likely explains the usage of the Verified Fan system.
Where will Beyoncé be playing?
The Renaissance World Tour will hit 40 cities in North America and across Europe. Stops include Paris, London, Amsterdam, Toronto, Chicago, East Rutherford, Atlanta, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Houston, and many more.
What has Beyoncé said about the Renaissance World Tour?
She just announced it was happening with a post on February 1. Her website didn't immediately contain any more details. But during the Wearable Art Gala in October 2022, she appeared to confirm it would start this summer, as a backstage tour with her mother Tina Lawson was up for auction at the event.
Will Beyoncé be performing at the Grammys (on February 5) and sharing more tour details there?
Not clear yet, but she is the most nominated artist at the ceremony . On January 21, Variety reported that “ talks with show producers are ongoing for a possible onstage appearance ” by Beyoncé.
What can we expect from the tour on stage?
Beyoncé hasn't shared that yet either, but given the artistry she put into her recent Dubai show , it's fair to say we can expect no less than excellence, elaborate costumes, and an incredible experience.
This post will be updated the moment more detail is released.

Our top headlines in style, culture, and more, in your inbox, daily, we respect your privacy. all data captured will be used in accordance with our privacy policy, renaissance: a film by beyoncé is heading to australian cinemas sooner than we thought.
All members of the BeyHive will soon be able to bask in the glory that is Beyoncé with her ‘Renaissance’ tour to hit cinemas soon. By Hayley Peppin
BEYONCÉ ABSOLUTELY slayed the 2023 Grammys . She not only won four awards on February 5 for her smash album RENAISSANCE , but broke the record for most Grammy wins of all time with a colossal 32 trophies to her name.
As the “artist of our lives,” as coined by Lizzo in her endearing Grammy win acceptance speech — surely, we’d all want to get in on the Queen Bey action for ourselves? Turns out we can. On October 1, Beyoncé confirmed rumours via Instagram that her hit RENAISSANCE tour will be heading to cinemas globally. The news follows increased speculation she’ll bring her arena spectacular Down Under.
Here’s what we know about Beyoncé’s RENAISSANCE tour film, including its newly announced release date — and whether she’ll actually perform in Australia following her Europe and U.S. dates.

Is Beyoncé’s Renaissance tour film showing in Australia?
Following news of Taylor Swift’s The Eras Tour concert movie, Beyoncé has now announced plans for the BeyHive to enjoy her epic tour in the cinema. The singer unveiled the official first trailer for Renaissance: A Film By Beyonce to her social media accounts on October 1, right after the final Renaissance tour stop in Kansas City, Missouri. She captioned the post: “Be careful what you ask for, ‘cause I just might comply. Tickets on sale now, in theatres 12.01..”
The clip features never-before-seen footage of Queen Bey getting ready for the shows with her children, as well as awe-inspiring atmospheric crowd shots — with two of the September tour stops shot in her hometown of Houston for the film, per Deadline .
According to Variety , the film’s been years in development — and will include “elements of her top-grossing 2023 live shows, parts of the long-gestating visual album Renaissance and a documentary-style account of making the record and building out the tour (Blue Ivy Carter cameos surely to come).”
When will the Renaissance tour film come out in Australia?
Good news: Christmas is coming early, because Beyoncé has announced a global release date of December 1 for her Renaissance tour film, confirming that date for its Australian release as well. International tickets will be available from November 9, including for Australia, via BeyonceFilm.com .
Is Beyoncé’s Renaissance tour coming to Australia in 2023?
Ever since Beyoncé announced her global tour, which spans 57 concerts across 40 cities in North America and 14 across Europe, there’s been chatter amongst Australian fans about a possible Down Under tour. Social media even dubbed an imminent Australian tour announcement after Ticketek have suspiciously uploaded a ‘Beyoncé (Waitlist) ‘ earlier this year.
While nothing has been finalised, the fact fans can already sign up to pre-pre-sale, one could say, suggests it’s a priority for the ticketing website.
If the “Cuff It” singer does make the trek to Australia, it’ll be the first time she’s performed here since her sold-out Mrs Carter tour in 2013. Word of caution therefore to members of the BeyHive, sign up now in case you miss a spontaneous Australian tour drop — like Beyoncé’s known to do on socials.

Beyoncé has announced her much anticipated Renaissance world tour. These charts illustrate her legacy

Music superstar Beyoncé has announced her first new tour in nearly seven years, in which she will take her latest album, Renaissance, on the road around Europe and North America.
In disappointing news for local fans, Australia isn't on the list — yet.
The Renaissance World Tour will kick off in Stockholm on May 10, travelling across the continent until the end of June.
It will then resume in Toronto in July before wrapping in New Orleans in September.
Beyoncé's last studio tour was in 2016 in support of her album Lemonade .
She released the chart-topping and critically-acclaimed Renaissance , her seventh studio album, at the end of July.
The record — inspired by black and queer dance music culture and pioneers — is in the running for the coveted album of the year prize at this year's Grammy Awards , which will take place on Monday.
In the charts below, see how Beyoncé has built a record-setting solo career across two decades.
Beyoncé has most Grammys of all for a female artist
Beyonce leads the pack here, with 28 wins , followed closely by Alison Krauss , with 27 wins .
That lead widens considerably when we look at Aretha Franklin , who is the third-most awarded Grammy winner with 18 wins .
She's on track to secure most Grammys ever
Right now, the only person ahead of Beyoncé is the late conductor Georg Solti , who won 31 Grammys in his life.
Beyonce's 28 wins means she's currently tied with producer Quincy Jones.
However, she could very well shoot straight to the top come next week as her album Renaissance is leading the 2023 Grammy nominees with nine nods .
Speaking of Grammy nominations, that's another record she holds
When the Grammy nominations were announced last November, Beyoncé wrote herself into the history books by equalling the record of most nominations of all time .
Her additional nine nominations brought her total to 88 — tied for the most-ever nominations with none other than husband Jay-Z .
The winners of this year's Grammy awards will be revealed at a ceremony in Los Angeles on February 6 .
As for when Queen Bey will announce if she's bringing her Renaissance tour down under, we'll have to wait and see.

On Wednesday, the renowned artist announced the official dates for her “Renaissance” world tour, taking to her social media accounts to share the news. For the Instagram promo, in a picture posted to Beyoncé ‘s official page, she can be seen wearing a custom Nusi Quero shimmering piece, which adorned her chest and parts of her torso, almost mirroring armor, but with an alluring twist. She wore a dazzling cowboy hat, seemingly paying homage to her Houston roots. She’s riding on top of a silver, glittery horse.

Beyoncé Announces Additional Dates For Her Highly Anticipated Renaissance World Tour
After much speculation and months of waiting, Beyoncé is finally taking " Renaissance " on tour this summer! Queen Bey made the official announcement on Feb. 1 with a dazzling poster for the Renaissance World Tour posted on Instagram and tour dates listed on her website . The news caused so much excitement among fans that Beyoncé added additional dates the very next day.
Beyoncé's announcement comes a few short months after she first teased her world tour at the fifth annual Wearable Art Gala , at which the Grammy winner was in attendance. On Saturday, Oct. 22, 2022, she raffled off a lavish concert package valued at $20,000, which included first-class plane tickets, a three-night hotel stay, two "Renaissance" concert tickets, and a guided backstage tour from her mother, Tina Knowles-Lawson.
While the exact amount that the package was auctioned off for has yet to be revealed, video footage from the event shows bids reaching $50,000 and more, as reported by Yahoo News . The only thing that's certain is that the first two tickets to the "Renaissance" tour were sold ahead of its wider sale. Now, fans will be able to purchase their own tickets starting on Monday, Feb. 6, beginning with an exclusive presale to BeyHive members, per a press release from Live Nation.
Beyoncé's Parkwood Entertainment-produced tour kicks off on May 10, 2023, at Friends Arena in Stockholm, SE, followed by stops throughout Europe and North America. It comes on the heels of her seventh solo album, act one of a three-part series, which arrived in July 2022, six years after she gave us 2016's " Lemonade ."
The 41-year-old Grammy-winning icon celebrated its release on her website , writing, "We did it!!! Thank you all so much for you love and support . . . This was years of experimentation. This was years of hard work, blood, sweat, and tears. I'm so grateful and it was worth it. I'm thankful that it was received and understood." She also hosted a star-studded Studio 54-inspired dance party at New York City's Paradise Club to mark the album becoming her seventh No. 1 solo album and the biggest debut from a woman artist this year, per Billboard .
Back in August, Beyoncé teased a clip from her first "Renaissance" music video, " I'm That Girl ," and most recently put on a grandiose live performance at the reveal of Dubai's Atlantis The Royal Hotel, which POPSUGAR was on hand to see, in January — marking her first concert in four years. She didn't perform any of her "Renaissance" songs, but now it's clear she's saving it all for her world tour.

On the first day of Black History Month, Beyoncé has given fans what they’ve been waiting for — the official Renaissance world tour !
Today (Feb. 1), the Queen Bey dropped an Instagram post with a new pose of her sitting on top of a glitzy stallion, as she dons a matching cowgirl hat and jeweled negligé.
“RENAISSANCE WORLD TOUR 2023,” the post reads with simplicity, although the phrase will be the start of Ticketmaster wars.

Soon after, Bey updated her Instagram bio with a link to tour dates (which are still being added and altered). The New York date was edited to New Jersey’s Met Life Stadium.

Delivering a truly “ once-in-a-lifetime performance ” for special invited guests, Bey took attendees through some of her most timeless hits — although many anticipated to hear Renaissance jams.
However, in just four months fans will be channeling their inner ballroom and disco queen as the “Break My Soul” star heads towards a city (or country) near you.
The seventh studio-album from the mom-of-three has broken records since it’s release back in July 2022. Deemed the “musical highlight of the year,” by Rolling Stone , the album pays homage to Black and queer culture and the dance club era.
Check out U.S. and Canada dates for the Renaissance World Tour below and European dates here .

Everything to Know About Beyoncé’s Renaissance Tour
B eyoncé’s fans have been waiting for this day: the pop megastar finally announced that she will embark on the long-awaited Renaissance World Tour. She uploaded a post to Instagram early Wednesday morning with the caption: “RENAISSANCE WORLD TOUR 2023,” and her official website has been updated to show the tour dates. The tour starts in May in Sweden and will hit Belgium, the United Kingdom, France, Spain, Denmark, the Netherlands, and Poland, before she makes her way to North America. The first date stateside will be in Philadelphia, Pa., in July and the tour will hit the major U.S. cities before wrapping up in New Orleans, La., on Sept. 27.

Following the release of her seventh album, Renaissance , in July, fans have been itching for a tour announcement, in addition to music videos to accompany the songs. Beyoncé’s last solo tour was the Formation World Tour back in 2016 to support her sixth album, Lemonade . Following that, she went on the On The Run Tour with her husband, Jay-Z, in 2018 after releasing their joint project, Everything Is Love . The announcement of a new tour just before the Grammy Awards on Sunday raises suspicion that Beyoncé might be performing or, at the very least, attending the night’s festivities.
The singer is nominated for nine Grammys at this year’s awards ceremony, which are set to take place on Feb. 5 in Los Angeles. This year, she is up against Adele for multiple awards, including Album of the Year, Song of the Year, and Record of the Year. There has been speculation about whether or not Beyoncé would be performing ever since the nominations were announced. The last time fans saw her perform on a major televised stage was at last year’s Oscars ceremony, where she performed “Be Alive” from the King Richard movie for the first time.

Beyoncé most recently took the stage for a private concert at the opening of the Atlantis The Royal resort in Dubai in January. However, she did not perform any songs from Renaissance . Also, given that Beyoncé unveiled the album’s title on Instagram as “act [one],” her dedicated fanbase has been busy theorizing what acts two and three might be. Some have hypothesized that the tour would be act two and then a concert movie would be act three. Others have ventured to guess that this is a three-part album and that Renaissance was just the beginning.
Tickets for the concert will not be an easy get if Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour is any indication. Beyoncé’s fans can click on the date they would like to attend to register for Ticketmaster’s Verified Fan program and will then have to wait to see if they are given an access code to purchase tickets to the event. With Verified Fan and the “unexpected” traffic the pre-sale brought to the site, many Swifties likened the ticket-buying process to a warzone. The disastrous rollout drew ire from Swift’s fans and political officials alike. After the ticketing fiasco, the Senate held a hearing to look into whether Live Nation and Ticketmaster have a monopoly over the ticketing industry. This, coupled with the technical problems that Swift fans faced, have Beyoncé fans worrying that finding their way to an actual concert will be nothing short of an ordeal.

Beyoncé Announces Renaissance World Tour
Beyoncé has announced that she’s touring in support of her latest album, Renaissance . The tour begins with a European leg in May, followed by dates in Canada and the United States that extend from from early July through late September. It’s her first tour since her 2018 co-headlining On the Run II Tour with Jay-Z behind their collaborative album, Everything Is Love , and her first headlining tour since 2016’s Formation World Tour behind Lemonade . The Renaissance World Tour is produced by Parkwood Entertainment and promoted by Live Nation. See all of the dates below.
Renaissance arrived July 29, rising swiftly to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and marking Beyoncé’s seventh album to summit the albums chart. It is the first act in what will be a three-part series, she has indicated.
Beyoncé hinted at her world tour in late October, during the fifth annual Wearable Art Gala, where the raffle included “ a UNIQUE experience ” to see her on the Renaissance tour. Purported images from the auction featured descriptions of the summer 2023 trek. Valued at $20,000, the package included first-class plane tickets, a three-night hotel stay, two concert tickets, and a guided backstage tour from Beyoncé’s mother, Tina Knowles aka Miss Tina. Beyoncé was reportedly in attendance at the gala. In January, she performed at the opening of a new luxury resort in Dubai, but did not play any Renaissance material at the private concert . It was her first live performance since 2020.
Since sharing Renaissance , Beyoncé has made a few adjustments to the album; she replaced ableist lyrics in “ Heated ,” and removed an interpolation of Kelis ’ “Milkshake” on “Energy” after Kelis said she was not informed by Beyoncé and her team that her music was going to be used on the new album. Beyoncé also dropped Honey Dijon and Madonna remixes of “ Break My Soul .”
In 2019, Beyoncé released Homecoming: The Live Album . The next year, she shared Black Is King , a visual album based on her 2019 soundtrack for The Lion King: The Gift . (Beyoncé voiced adult Nala in the CGI remake film.) On Juneteenth of that year, she surprise-released “ Black Parade ,” which would go on to win the Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance . At the same ceremony, she also won Best Rap Performance and Best Rap Song (for her feature on the remix of Megan Thee Stallion ’s “ Savage ”), as well as Best Music Video (for The Gift ’s “ Brown Skin Girl ”). “ Be Alive ”—her contribution to the King Richard soundtrack—was nominated for an Oscar at last year’s ceremony.
Beyoncé is nominated for nine honors at the 2023 Grammy Awards : Record of the Year , Song of the Year , and Best Dance/Electronic Recording for “Break My Soul”; Album of the Year and Best Dance/Electronic Music Album for Renaissance ; Best R&B Performance for “Virgo’s Groove”; Best Traditional R&B Performance for “Plastic Off the Sofa”; Best R&B Song for “Cuff It”; and Best Song Written for Visual Media for “Be Alive.”

Beyoncé returned to the stage for first time in four years in January
Last month, Beyoncé made her return to the stage and performed at the opening of the Atlantis The Royal hotel in Dubai. Despite the luxury experience, the singer left fans wanting more, as she did not perform any songs from "Renaissance," The Hollywood Reporter reported.
The invitation-only event marked her first concert in more than four years. She last performed at the Global Citizen Festival: Mandela 100 event in 2018.
Beyoncé dominates Grammy nominations
The singer's tour announcement comes days ahead of the Grammys where Beyoncé leads the 2023 lineup with nine nominations, including best dance/electronic album ("Renaissance"), best R&B performance ("Virgo’s Groove") and best traditional R&B performance ("Plastic Off the Sofa").
With 28 wins and 88 total career nominations, Beyoncé now ties her husband, rapper Jay-Z , for the most nominations in Grammy history. If Beyoncé picks up four or more awards this year, she will surpass the late Georg Solti for the most Grammy wins of all time. (The Hungarian-born conductor holds the record with 31.)

Beyoncé and Jay-Z have got "to be the most intense power couple in the history of music," Recording Academy president Harvey Mason Jr. Mason said after the nominations were revealed. "That’s music and Grammy royalty – that’s the royal family."
Their combined 176 nominations are "absolutely a testament to their talent, to their level of excellence, to their work ethic, to their level of greatness over a long period of time. I don’t even know what the next (leading) couple would be, but it’s not anywhere close.”
Beyoncé's 'Break My Soul.' Taylor Swift's 'Anti-Hero.' These are the 10 best songs of 2022, ranked.
Beyoncé noticeably was not nominated in any of the music video categories for the Grammys, having not released any album visuals for "Renaissance" since its debut.

Wondering if Beyoncé is playing a show in your area? Below are the remaining cities the Grammy winner will visit for the 2023 North American leg of the Renaissance tour . Beyoncé previously also added an additional three shows to the tour, including Atlanta (8/14/23), Las Vegas, (8/27/23), and Inglewood, CA (9/4/23).
Not surprisingly, Ticketmaster said it saw a massive demand for the Renaissance tour in a blog on its website. “Fan demand already exceeds the number of tickets available by more than 800% based on the registration numbers in the Group A cities. It is expected that many interested fans may not be able to get tickets because demand drastically exceeds supply.”

It’s a deep-dive into what fans can expect during the concert. In short, you can likely plan to hear everything from deep cuts like opener “Dangerously in Love,” along with Renaissance tracks like “Alien Superstar,” “Cuff It,” and closer “Summer Renaissance.” Plus: “Love on Top,” “Crazy in Love,” “1+1,” and more.

European dates started in May, and Beyoncé embarked on the North American leg of the Renaissance tour over the summer, including stops in Toronto (read our Renaissance tour review ), Los Angeles, Houston, and New Orleans. Though Beyoncé headlined a show in Dubai — her first concert in four years at the time — she didn’t play any songs from Renaissance , Rolling Stone ‘s No. 1 album of 2022 (“the musical highlight of the year”) and a frontrunner at the 65th Grammys .
When Beyoncé dropped Renaissance last summer, Rolling Stone ‘s Mankaprr Conteh wrote that “Beyoncé flung open the doors to a nightclub of her own making, a place where anyone can be the hottest person in the galaxy … the album traverses eras of dance music to conjure the superhuman confidence and deeply human connection of a night out. The thematic triumph of the auteur’s seventh album is this union of the extraordinary and the earthly across it, a duality that lives on the dancefloors Renaissance was inspired by — and in all of us.”
How to Get Beyoncé Tickets With BeyHive Verified Fan Registration
BeyHive Verified Fan Presale started Feb. 6 for those who registered in Group A, followed by Groups B and C.
The first round of the BeyHive presale arrived just one day after Beyoncé made Grammys history on Feb. 5. With 32 wins under her belt, Beyoncé broke the record for the most Grammy Awards in music history, winning the Grammy for Best Dance/Electronic Album for Renaissance .
“I’d like to thank my beautiful husband, my beautiful three children who are at home watching,” Queen Bey said during her acceptance speech. “I’d like to thank the queer community, for your love, and for inventing this genre. God bless you. Thank you so much to the Grammys.”
While Renaissance didn’t win a trophy for Album of the Year , Beyoncé still took home a slew of other awards, including Best R&B Song for “Cuff It,” Best Dance/Electronic Record for “Break My Soul,” and Best Traditional R&B Performance for “Plastic Off the Sofa.”
“You changed my life,” Lizzo told Beyoncé during her Grammys acceptance speech for her Record of the Year win. “You sang that gospel medley, and the way you made me feel, I was like, ‘I want to make people feel this way with my music.’ So thank you so much. You clearly are the artist of our lives.”

Is This Proof That Beyoncé Is Coming to Australia After All?
Beyonce Renaissance Tour · Photo: Courtesy of Beyonce.com
Despite the glaring omission of Australian tour dates, there may still be hope on the horizon for fans Down Under.
Words by Elizabeth McDonald · 02 Feb 2023
Stop everything – Beyoncé has announced her 2023 Renaissance world tour, and fans around the globe are buzzing. But Australian fans are a little confused. Is she coming or not? Ticketek seems to be certain of an imminent tour and have even started a waitlist, but others aren’t so sure .
In classic Beyoncé style, the announcement came without warning via a cryptic Instagram post (remember back in 2013 when she just dropped her self-titled album without a word? Queen) in which she sits atop a mirrored horse in all her disco-cowgirl glory.
The Lemonade megastar will kick off the global extravaganza in Europe this May, before heading to North America from July. According to her website, tickets will be made available to verified fans, with an exclusive pre-sale for the North American stretch going straight to the Beyhive.
If she does come to Australia it would be the first time Beyoncé has toured in Australia since her Mrs Carter Tour in 2013. While dates for the Australian leg of Queen Bey’s tour have not yet been announced, fans can join that waitlist for news and tickets on the Ticketek website.

Beyoncé announces 2023 ‘renaissance tour.’ here’s where she’s performing.
The Beyhive is buzzing like never before.
After much speculation, Beyoncé has officially announced her highly anticipated stadium “Renaissance Tour.”
Seven years after her “Formation Tour” and five years after the “On The Run II Tour” with her husband Jay Z, the 28-time Grammy winner (and 88-time nominee!) will embark on her solo headlining “Renaissance Tour” in support of her critically acclaimed chart-topping 2022 album “Renaissance” all summer long.
The international tour will start overseas in Sweden, Belgium, the U.K., France and Germany in May before she returns to North America for 29 huge stadium concerts starting July 8 at Toronto’s Rogers Centre .
And although Queen Bey isn’t coming to the Big Apple on the run — as of now — she will get close to the City That Never Sleeps.
On July 29 and July 30 , Mrs. Knowles is set to touch down at East Rutherford’s MetLife Stadium for two huge back-to-back concerts.
She’s familiar with the venue too. The last show of her “Formation Tour” was at the Giants and Jets’ home stadium on Oct. 7, 2016. That time around, she brought Jay Z and Kendrick Lamar onstage with her.
Who will she bring this time? Will she sing the same songs she did at her recent Dubai concert?
All we know is the best way to find out is live.

Where will Beyoncé go on tour in North America?

Beyoncé opening acts
At the time of publication, Beyoncé does not have any opening acts lined up for her 2023 “Renaissance Tour” although there are rumors that 74-year-old singer Grace Jones will be joining her swirling on Twitter .
We personally can’t get enough of Jones’ seven-minute cover of Roxy Music’s “Love Is the Drug.”
In 2016, Knowles was joined by DJ Khaled on the “Formation Tour.” Two years later, she co-headlined with her husband and fellow 88-time Grammy nominee Jay Z on the “On The Run II Tour.”

17.) “Drunk In Love” (from her 2014 album “Beyonce”)
Beyoncé “Renaissance” album
Knowles’ “Renaissance” was the most critically-acclaimed album of 2022 showing up on countless year-end lists as 2022’s best.
The 16-track album, clocking in at just a little over an hour was also extremely popular with fans as well quickly charting at number on the Billboard 200, making it Beyoncé’s seventh album to hit the top spot.
However, the record that brought the world “Break My Soul” may have more to it.
Beyoncé has hinted that the record is part of a three-part series; in a June 28, 2022 announcement she called it “Act I.”
Since the album’s release, it has undergone a few transformations.
According to Pitchfork, Beyoncé “replaced ableist lyrics in “ Heated ,” and removed an interpolation of Kelis ’ “Milkshake” on “Energy” after Kelis said she was not informed by Beyoncé and her team that her music was going to be used on the new album.”
She also reportedly dropped Honey Dijon and Madonna remixes of “Break My Soul.”
Beyoncé Grammys
Beyonce’s seventh studio album “Renaissance,” netted nine Grammy nominations for Album of the Year, Song of the Year, Record of the Year, Best Dance/Electronic Recording, Best Dance/Electronic Album, Best R&B Performance, Best Traditional R&B Performance, Best R&B Song and Best Song Written For Visual Media.
The nine nominations tie Beyonce with her husband Jay Z for most all-time Grammy nominations with 88 apiece.

While a Beyoncé tour announcement may trump all others in terms of hype, there quite a few exciting tours to look out for in the next few months.
Here are just five of our favorite, can’t miss concerts that may be coming to a city near you soon.
