Beyoncé has shared a preview of the stage for her upcoming ‘Cowboy Carter‘ world tour. Check it out below.
The huge run of gigs kicks off in Los Angeles tonight (April 28) and will see Bey head across the US, before playing shows in the UK and France.
Ahead of the first show, the ‘Cuff It’ singer shared a sneak preview of the stage with fans, taking to Twitter/X to post a snippet alongside the caption: “SHE COMING.”
A video, taken from inside Los Angeles’s SoFi Stadium – where she’s set to play five concerts – shows an elaborate, star-shaped stage that leads to a pointed runway. The singer is known for her high production value, having similarly intricate designs at her previous ‘Renaissance‘ and ‘Formation‘ world tours.
Check out the clip below, as well as a full list of tour dates. You can also find any remaining tickets for US shows here and UK shows here.
The tour is in support of her country-inspired, Grammy-winning latest album, which she released last March.
NME awarded the album five stars, noting: “Even if interpreted only on the grounds of artistic spectacle, it’s an undeniable thrill to see [Beyoncé] swing so big on a project that dares her to be so intimate and vocal-focused, while making way for country’s up-and-comers too.”

Last week, it was reported that the cost of tickets for the tour’s opening nights had been reduced significantly due to low sales, with standard tickets available from $85, while resale tickets had dropped to $35 in some cases.
Live Nation have previously denied reports that Beyoncé is having trouble selling tickets. Last month, in a statement to Billboard, the events company claimed that 94 per cent of tickets for the tour have been sold.
The announcement of the UK dates at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium has had the unexpected consequence of the Rugby Football Union (RFU) threatening to leave Twickenham Stadium. Chief executive Bill Sweeney alleged that licensing restrictions caused them to miss out on hosting a show on the tour.
Beyoncé last hit the road in 2023 in support of her previous studio album, ‘Renaissance’. It was one of the highest-grossing tours of all time, taking in a reported $579million (£455.7million) in revenue.
Earlier this year, Beyoncé finally won the coveted Album Of The Year award at the Grammys 2025 with ‘Cowboy Carter’. With a total of 99 nods, the singer is now the most nominated artist in Grammy history. She also holds the record for most Grammy wins, now with 35. Additionally, she is the first Black woman to have won the Best Country Album prize.
Reneé Rapp is seen as a “huge inspiration” by SZA.
The 25-year-old artist performed SZA’s Good Days in the BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge, accompanied by two acoustic guitarists and a harp player. SZA, 35, was deeply moved by the rendition.
She posted a short video of the moment on Instagram Stories and wrote: “Renee is a HUGE inspiration, energy, voice spirit.”
During her chat with the BBC, Renee shared her thoughts about the track. She said: “I mean, I love SZA. I mean, she was one of my favorite artists in high school. And she's remained one of my favorite artists to this day. I think she's amazing. She's also, I mean, she's an incredible songwriter, but I think because she has so much swag. People don't realize how good of a singer she is. She's a fantastic vocalist and is really, really, really articulate. And I don't cover a lot of songs anymore. So I wanted to cover something that was, like, slightly challenging and also really vocally impressive, and frankly, hard for me to do.”
Renee is currently in the middle of promoting her second album, Bite Me, and opened up about how much more enjoyable it was to create compared to her first project.
She explained: “I mean, I feel like everything was incredibly different. I stopped listening to people that don't make music, because if you don't make music, then why the hell am I listening to you. And I also think the biggest difference, I think I just got a lot better. I think I have just become a better songwriter. I think I understand how to make pop music now in a way that I didn't really before. And I was very sure about what this album was and thematically, what it needed.
“So I felt like I was quite like, headstrong in like, what was gonna work and what wasn't. Because, nobody knows something better than yourself. I think a lot of things were different. I also just, like, had a lot of fun making it, like, I made it with like, three people, mostly, like, it was always like, four of us in the studio all the time, and we got so close, and some of us were already so close. So it was also just like a mess. It was such a mess, like we were just tweaking every day. It was so fun. And I don't think I enjoyed making the first one as much.”
