If the reaction to Beyonce’s new record a little over a week ago wasn’t any indication, the response to the singer’s newly announced tour has everyone looking to get in formation as she preps to make stops across the world in the coming months. Announced literally moments after a showstopping Super Bowl 50 half time show performance, the ‘Formation World Tour’ quickly became a must-attend event for plenty of people across the world. Being a superstar and touring force of Beyonce’s status, it comes as no surprise that the demand for tickets for the tour have been through the roof and have equally left some disappointed due to missing out and some more than elated thanks to scoring tickets. Fortunately enough for Beyonce, if there was any worry as to how she would fair during her first stadium-only world tour, the response has been monumental after it’s been reported that nearly 1 million tickets were sold on the first day of tickets being on sale to the general public.
The highly-anticipated tour, promoted by Live Nation, presented by American Express and produced by Parkwood Entertainment sold nearly 1 million tickets over the weekend and today confirmed that the concerts in London, Sunderland, Manchester, Amsterdam, Dublin & Stockholm as well as her shows in Miami,Dallas, Toronto, Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Los Angeles, and both performances scheduled at Citi Field in New York City are completely sold out.
Due to overwhelming demand, second shows have now been confirmed for May 28 at Soldier Field in Chicago and on July 3 atLondon’s Wembly Stadium. Tickets for the May 28 concert in Chicago will go on sale on Thursday, Feb. 25. Beyhive members will have an opportunity to purchase advance tickets starting Wednesday, Feb. 17 at 10:00 a.m. American Express Card Members can purchase tickets Wed. Feb. 17 at 12:00 p.m. through Sunday, Feb. 21 at 5:00 p.m.
Just to give a further look at just how much the public wants to see Queen Bey, Beyonce went forth to sell out Wembley Stadium in the UK in 26 minutes with 90,000 tickets sold. It’s important to note that this demand is there all before the singer has even announced a new studio album that is expected to drop before the tour starts.If there’s one thing that’s certain, there’s no denying that Beyonce is one of, if not the greatest, performers of our generation. Time and time again, it’s evident that people can’t seem to get enough of Bey’s live showings. Without a doubt, the ‘Formation World Tour’ will be one for the record books. You can still purchase Beyonce tickets on the secondary market.
