Beyoncé's 'COWBOY CARTER' Tour: Chart-topping triumphs and a historic UK tour

Released in March 2024, COWBOY CARTER marked Beyoncé's foray into country music.

The project stands as a testament to her versatility and willingness to challenge musical boundaries. Blending country, rock, R&B, and Americana.

It earned her 11 Grammy nominations and secured wins for Album of the Year and Best Country Album.

This achievement made her the first Black woman to win Album of the Year in 26 years.

The album's lead single, "TEXAS HOLD ‘EM," debuted at number one on both the Billboard Hot 100 and Hot Country Songs charts, a historic first for a Black woman.

Another standout track, "YA, YA," received critical acclaim for its fusion of rock and roll, psychedelic soul, and funk, and was nominated for Best Americana Performance at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards.

'Cowboy Carter' Tour: A record-breaking spectacle

Beyoncé's 'COWBOY CARTER' Tour, which commenced in April 2025, has been a monumental success.

The tour's opening run at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles grossed $55.7 million, setting a record for the highest-grossing single-venue engagement by a female artist.

In the UK, she is set to perform six consecutive shows at London's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium from June 5 to June 16, a feat unprecedented for any artist at the venue.
