BEYONCÉ KICKS OFF MONUMENTAL COWBOY CARTER TOUR WITH FIVE HISTORIC NIGHTS AT LOS ANGELES’ SOFI STADIUM

Last night, global cultural icon Beyoncé launched her highly anticipated COWBOY CARTER TOUR with a historic sold-out performance at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. The first of five nights at the world-renowned venue captivated fans on opening night.

Over the course of the powerful nearly 3 hour show show, Beyoncé brought to life songs from her groundbreaking album, COWBOY CARTER, including “16 Carriages,” “TEXAS HOLD ‘EM,” and “BODYGUARD,” alongside reimagined versions of fan-favorite hits spanning her entire iconic catalog. The show unfolds across thematic chapters that weave a narrative of resilience, freedom, and heritage, underscored by her signature visually immersive cinematic interludes and dynamic stage production.

Iconic moments include a star spangled banner acapella performance with Jimi Hendrix’s guitar solo, a full feature section of her successful seventh studio album, RENAISSANCEseveral Blue Ivy special guest appearances throughout the show and Rumi Carter’s first ever on stage appearance during “Protector,” multiple moments flying through the audience on a horseshoe and car, a color-changing LED dress during “Daughter” and much more.

Towards the end of the night she declared from the stage

“I have the best fans in the world. I love you so much. We worked so hard to make this as perfect as we could for y’all. I hope y’all had fun.”

Her return through a creative Americana lens kicked off what promises to be one of the most celebrated tours of the year.

Following her record-shattering RENAISSANCE WORLD TOUR, she once again graced the stage in spectacular fashion, starting with a breathtaking custom all white look in Mugler. Collaborations spanning some of the world’s leading fashion houses and emerging designers have resulted in designs that blend Beyoncé’s own pioneering style with luxury and rugged authenticity, creating a modern Western aesthetic.
The spirit of COWBOY CARTER extended beyond the stage, as fans transformed SoFi Stadium into a glittering showcase of Western glam. Rhinestone boots, fringed jackets, and wide-brimmed hats in the audience echoed the bold looks seen on stage, turning the stadium into a full-scale celebration of COWBOY CARTER‘s fearless spirit.
Produced by Parkwood Entertainment and promoted by Live Nation, the COWBOY CARTER TOUR has already broken multiple venue records around the globe. Initially announced with 22 stadium shows, overwhelming demand drove the addition of 10 more performances, solidifying Beyoncé’s ongoing dominance of the live event space.

  • Most shows ever performed by an artist on a single tour at MetLife Stadium.
