About

The Beyoncé Cowboy Carter Tour (2025) is the concert tour in support of Beyoncé's eighth studio album, Cowboy Carter — a genre-defying exploration of country, blues, R&B, and American roots music that debuted at #1 in 23 countries upon release in March 2024. The tour launched in February 2025 across North America before moving to Europe, South America, Africa, Asia, and Oceania. Spanning 80+ cities and 120 shows, it became the highest-grossing tour by a solo female artist in history, surpassing the record previously held by Taylor Swift's Eras Tour. The production is a 2.5-hour theatrical spectacle designed by Stufish Entertainment Architects — the firm behind Rolling Stones, U2, and Madonna tours. The stage is a 360-degree circular structure surrounded by LED columns and an overhead video ring, requiring 200 trucks and 500 crew per city. The setlist spans Beyoncé's entire catalogue through the lens of Cowboy Carter, reframing tracks from Dangerously in Love, Lemonade, and Renaissance as part of a continuous American musical lineage. Guest collaborations vary by region: Dolly Parton joined for Nashville dates, Post Malone for Houston, and Lizzo for select US cities. Each leg of the tour featured local artists on the opening slot — a deliberate act of platform-sharing by Beyoncé. The tour grossed over $2.5 billion globally, making it the highest-grossing concert tour in history.
