Get your white Cowboy boots and hat ready! Beyoncé is taking Cowboy Carter on the road.
The Grammy award winning artist announced the Cowboy Carter tour via video on her Instagram page Feb. 2nd. The video didn’t mention any your dates but featured a large neon sign flickering on the words “Cowboy Carter Tour” in all-caps.
That post was followed up with a promotional photo of Queen Bey rocking platinum braids, bleached eyebrows and red lipstick with the caption: “COWBOY CARTER TOUR 2025.”
The next day Bey dropped the tour cities which includes Los Angeles, New York, Paris and London. Ticket sales have not been released yet.
Country Music Grammy winner
The tour cities dropped shortly after Cowboy Carter won Grammys for Album of the Year and Best Country Album, making her the first Black woman to win in that category in 50 years.
“I think sometimes genre is a code word to keep us in our place as artists, and I just want to encourage people to do what they’re passionate about and to stay persistent,” she said during her acceptance speech for Best Country Album.
Beyoncé Bowl
The original announcement about the tour on Jan. 14 was initially delayed due to the LA wildfires. In response the BeyGOOD LA Relief fund donated $2.5 million to support impacted families and organizations.
Beyoncé recently performed parts of Cowboy Carter at the halftime show between Baltimore Ravens and Houston Texans game on Christmas Day. Dubbed the Beyoncé Bowl, the performance paid homage to Black cowboy and rodeo culture.
Mexican Cowgirl, Melanie Rivera, Bull-riding legend, Myrtis Dightman, Jr., known as the “Jackie Robinson of Rodeo,” Miss Rodeo Texas Princess 2004 and Miss Rodeo Texas 2015, Nikki Woodward, and the first Black Rodeo Queen in Arkansas, Ja’Dayia Kursh and Houston Texans owner, Cal McNair and his wife, Hannah, rode in a caravan during the performance.
The Cowboy Carter Christmas special featured a duet with Black country stars; Tanner Adell, Brittney Spencer, Tiera Kennedy, and Reyna Roberts, and a collaboration with Grammy Best New Artist nominee Shaboozey and Post Malone. Blue Ivy was also among the dancers, performing with her mother.
Giving us a bit of Beychella, Beyoncé also brought out Texas Southern University’s Ocean of Soul Marching Band.
