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.
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.
