Background

[edit]

Beyoncé embarked on the Renaissance World Tour, her ninth concert tour, in 2023, in support of her seventh studio album, Renaissance (2022), breaking the record for the highest-grossing tour by a black artist in history.[3] In 2024, she released her eighth studio album, Cowboy Carter, which led the 67th Annual Grammy Awards with 11 nominations and 3 winning categories, including Album of the Year and Best Country Album.[4] To further support the album, Beyoncé headlined a Netflix special dubbed as the "Beyoncé Bowl", capturing the halftime performance at the 2024 NFL on Christmas Day game at Houston's NRG Stadium, with a short videoclip added to the end of the broadcasting hinting a possible concert tour.[5]

On February 1, 2025, about an hour before midnight eastern time, Netflix tweeted the "Sweet Honey Buckiin'" lyric “Look at that horse” with a link to Beyoncé's “Beyoncé Bowl” performance.[6] Fans quickly noticed that "Cowboy Carter Tour" had been added as a title card at the end of the special, and took to social media.[6] At around midnight on February 2, 2025, Beyoncé posted promotional videos and updated her various social media accounts and website with the title "Cowboy Carter Tour 2025," in all caps, along with a new photo.[6]
