The Renaissance World Tour, her ninth concert tour in her successful career, began on May 10, 2023 with a show in Stockholm, Sweden.
The European leg took them to Belgium, Scotland, Wales, England, France, Spain, Germany and the Netherlands before ending in Warsaw, Poland on June 28th.
After a short break, the tour then moved to North America and began on July 8th in Toronto, Canada.
The global journey took place largely in stadiums across the United States, until the final show on October 1, 2023 in Kansas City, Missouri; the place where the trailer for the Renaissance film premiered.
The teaser gave fans a glimpse of the pop superstar behind the scenes and on stage. It also features rare backstage clips of the Houston, Texas native with her three children: Blue Ivy, 11, and twins Sir and Rumi, six, all of whom she shares with husband Jay-Z.
“When I perform, I am nothing but free,” you can hear in the clip. “The goal of this tour was to create a place where everyone is free and no one is judged.”
All told, the Renaissance World Tour grossed a staggering $579 million, making it the highest-grossing tour by a female artist in history and the seventh highest-grossing tour overall, according to Entertainment Weekly.
The Renaissance Tour also broke Billboard’s record for highest single-month sales with $127.6 million.

The New York Times estimated that the money generated by the Beyoncé boom brought in about $4.5 billion, representing a huge boost to the U.S. economy, comparable to what the 2008 Olympics brought to Beijing, China, have caused.
As for the album “Renaissance,” Beyoncé (née Beyoncé Giselle Knowles) conceived and recorded all 16 songs, arranged seamlessly like a DJ mix, during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The album was released on July 29, 2022 and eventually debuted at number one on the US Bill Board 200 chart, en route to being certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association Of America (RIAA).
