Beyoncé is setting records and making history with her Renaissance World Tour. According to Billboard, she was the "top-grossing act" of May, earning $67.5 million and selling over 450,000 tickets across nine shows. This makes her the first woman in nearly four years to top the Top Tours chart.
Afrotech ran the numbers, and it is clear that Beyoncé is only competing against herself. She has already outsold the European legs of her two prior tours, Formation and On The Run II. Thus far, the powerhouse singer has entertained a million fans through 21 performances.
Beyoncé has also set new standards for the stadiums she stops at. Her London and Warsaw shows were the highest-grossing for both the Tottenham Hotspur and PGE Narodowy stadiums. Her five-night-run in England alone garnered over $40 million in revenue. Overall, she has completed the first leg of her tour with reported earnings of $154.4 million.
Not only is Beyoncé making headlines for her massive profits, but also for the cultural spectacle her shows have become known for. From celebrity sightings to 11-year-old daughter Blue Ivy’s dance breaks, the Renaissance World Tour is packed with excitement and surprise for attendees.
Currently, Beyoncé is on a brief break as she prepares to commence her North American leg, starting July 12 at the Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. Fans eagerly await to see what the music icon has up her sleeve for this next round of shows.
