Beyoncé fans can finally rejoice, as the artist has announced her first tour in any form since a 2018 co-headlining run with husband Jay-Z and her first solo outing since two years prior. The stadium outing is in support of Beyoncé's 2022 album Renaissance and will begin May 10 in Stockholm. Dates are set through Sept. 27 in New Orleans. Since the 2018 tour with Jay-Z, Beyoncé has only performed live on a handful of occasions, including in 2020 at a Celebration of Life event for late NBA legend Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna, last March at the Academy Awards (where she won the best original song Oscar for "Be Alive" from the film King Richard), and, most recently, a private concert at the opening of the hotel Atlantis the Royal in Dubai. At the latter, Beyoncé played a 17-song set drawn evenly from her six previous studio albums, but did not debut any material from Renaissance, which was her seventh consecutive No. 1 on The Billboard 200. Three songs from her 2019 soundtrack for The Lion King: The Gift, were played for the first time ("BIGGER," "OTHERSIDE," and "BROWN SKIN GIRL," the latter featuring an appearance by daughter Blue Ivy Carter). The timing of the tour announcement comes just a few days before the 65th annual Grammy Awards, at which Beyoncé is up for a leading nine nominations including album of the year for Renaissance and record and song of the year for "Break My Soul." She's now tied with Jay-Z as the most nominated artists in Grammy history with 88.
