Beyoncé announced her “Cowboy Carter” tour Sunday ahead of the 2025 Grammy Awards.
The “16 Carriages” singer posted a promotional video and photo on Instagram shortly after midnight but has yet to unveil the trek’s dates and stops.
This will be Beyoncé’s first time on the road since her “Renaissance” world tour, which saw her perform 56 two-and-a-half-hour shows across Europe and North America from May to October 2023.
“Renaissance” was her highest-grossing outing to date, bringing in a whopping $579 million at the box office.
Queen Bey, 43, released a concert film chronicling the critically acclaimed tour in December 2023, which grossed an additional $44.4 million worldwide.
Beyoncé’s Grammy-winning “Renaissance” album, which she released in July 2022 as an homage to house and disco music, was the first act of a three-part project that she began working on during the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Cowboy Carter,” which dropped in March 2024, is the second act of the trilogy — and has already created an even bigger buzz than its predecessor, landing 11 Grammy nominations and topping Page Six’s list of the best albums of the year.
The country-leaning LP includes collaborations with legends including Dolly Parton and Willie Nelson as well as Beyoncé’s contemporaries Miley Cyrus and Post Malone.
The “Texas Hold ‘Em” singer, who was born and raised in Houston, shared that she decided to embrace her Southern roots after feeling unwelcome when she performed with the Chicks at the 2016 CMA Awards.
“The criticisms I faced when I first entered this genre forced me to propel past the limitations that were put on me,” she wrote on Instagram last year.
Beyoncé performed songs from the album for the first time on Christmas Day while headlining the halftime show at the Baltimore Ravens vs. Houston Texans game on Netflix.
