Beyoncé has announced her first world tour since 2018 in support of her latest album Renaissance. The tour will see her play a heap of shows across Europe and North America from May to September. no Australian dates have been announced at the time of writing.
It’s the first time the singer has hit the road since her On The Run II tour with husband Jay-Z in 2018, and is her first headline tour since she circled the globe for Lemonade back in 2016. She didn’t make it down under on either of those occasions.
Beyoncé: ‘Break My Soul’
The last time Beyoncé toured Australia was way back in 2013 for her Miss Carter tour, in which she played 14 shows across the country. While some Beyoncé fan accounts have tipped she might head here in late 2023 or early 2024, at this stage, there’s not much evidence to go on.
Renaissance, Beyoncé’s seventh studio album, landed in July 2022, spearheaded by the single ‘Break My Soul’. The record was a steer in direction, as she paid homage to the Black and Queer artists that created house and techno throughout Chicago and Detroit.
“Creating this album allowed me a place to dream and to find escape during a scary time for the world,” Beyoncé said of the record. “It allowed me to feel free and adventurous in a time when little else was moving. My intention was to create a safe place, a place without judgement. A place to be free of perfectionism and overthinking. A place to scream, release, feel freedom.”
Beyoncé recently played a controversial show at the opening of the Atlantis the Royal resort in Dubai, for which she was paid a casual US$24 million.
