Beyoncé has announced her eponymous, much-anticipated Cowboy Carter Tour in support of her Renaissance: Act II project after initially delaying a planned news release Jan. 14 due to the raging Los Angeles wildfires.
The “II Most Wanted” singer — who leads today’s Grammy nods with 11, including for Album, Song and Record of the Year, bringing her career total to 99 — made the announcement via an Instagram video, which features a large neon sign flickering on the words “Cowboy Carter Tour” in all-caps.
That post was followed up by a promotional photo of the most-decorated Grammy winner of all time, with the simple caption: “COWBOY CARTER TOUR 2025.” In the picture, Beyoncé rocks red lipstick, platinum braids and bleached eyebrows.
The long-awaited tour news comes after Beyoncé released a statement Jan. 13 postponing a planned announcement. “The January 14th announcement will be postponed to a later date due to the devastation caused by the ongoing wildfires around areas in Los Angeles. I continue to pray for healing and rebuilding for the families suffering from trauma and loss. We are so blessed to have brave first responders who continue to work tirelessly to protect the Los Angeles community,” she wrote at the time, also announcing her pledge of $2.5 million by the BeyGOOD LA Fire Relief Fund. At the time, fans theorized the announcement was related to a tour or another album release.
Additional details about the tour, tickets and other information have not yet been released.
Many devotees have been clamoring for a tour for the lively country album, especially following the rousing success of the Renaissance World Tour in support of her dance album. The tour announcement also follows her energizing Christmas Day Halftime performance during Netflix’s streamed NFL game, held in Beyoncé’s hometown of Houston.
