The Differences Between Beyoncé’s Renaissance Tour Merch Online Vs. In Person

Glow-in-the-dark jackets and metallic tote bags are among the many luxe items for sale.

There’s perhaps no better feeling than wearing concert merch as a subtle humble brag after attending a show, especially if it’s a big-ticket event like Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour . As expected, the 32-time Grammy winner delivered when it came to merch, releasing a slew of luxe items that the Beyhive is currently coveting.

Just like with Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour , wearing Renaissance Tour merch is like a public announcement that you witnessed one of the most buzzed-about and highly coveted events of 2023. But unlike the Eras Tour, which has a complicated merch system that could require waiting in hours-long queues, buying Renaissance Tour merch is a lot easier to snatch (especially in comparison to landing actual tickets from Ticketmaster ).

Here’s your guide to buying all of the Renaissance World Tour merch that your heart desires.

What To Buy At The Renaissance Tour Merch Stand

Keeping in with the Renaissance theme, Beyoncé has an assortment of futuristic, disco-inspired merch that you can only buy in person at one of her tours stops. Similarly to Swift’s Eras Tour, there is a merch truck located outside of each stadium that the general public can sometimes access without a ticket, depending on the venue, as well as multiple merch stands inside the stadium. But thankfully, Bey’s merch lines haven’t been nearly as long as Swift’s, and for the most part, all items seem to be available no matter where you purchase your mementos.

Beyoncé’s tour merch offerings include several Renaissance -inspired T-shirts, including one depicting Reneigh, the mirrorball horse on the album’s cover, and several photos of Bey in robotic garb. There’s also a glow-in-the-dark crew jacket with an outline of her tour stage, black and green sweatsuits, and a luxurious tour program filled with the gorgeous Renaissance visuals the Beyhive has been yearning for. While these items are not currently available online, this might change as the tour goes on.

If you’re wondering why so many attendees are carrying tote bags that aren’t available at the merch stand, VIP package holders receive exclusive totes filled with their own merch, which include baseball caps and battery-operated fans that spell out “fan me off,” nodding to fan-favorite track “HEATED.”

For her five London shows from May 29-June 4, Beyoncé set up a temporary merch store at the stadium as well as a pop-up shop in collaboration with FLANNELS, both of which sold all of the tour merch as well as some London-exclusive items. The singer has yet to announce the same for any of her North American stops, but for big cities like New York and Los Angeles, it’s possible that similar pop-ups will appear closer to the show dates.

What To Buy On The Renaissance Tour Online Store

If you wanted to buy Renaissance merch to prepare yourself before the show, you’re in luck. On June 28, Beyoncé unveiled new Renaissance Tour merch online exclusively on Amazon, in partnership with Amazon Music. While the release does not include anything sold at the shows, it’s just the first of four merch drops that “will come to life” throughout the North American leg of the tour, which kicks off July 7 in Toronto, Canada.

The new unisex range consists of T-shirts, sweatsuits, and an exclusive poster inspired by the Renaissance album cover, featuring Bey in the era’s signature mirrorball cowboy hat and disco garb. All of the new products are priced between $20 and $80, meaning you won’t have to break the bank. In addition, all purchases include a 3-month subscription to Amazon Music for new subscribers, in case you need a way to listen to Renaissance for the thousandth time before her show.

Top Gifts of 2023 | Gifts for Taylor Swift Fans | Best Gifts Under $20

Beyoncé Renaissance T-Shirt

True Bey fans will recognize this image from Renaissance World Tour (RWT) promotion. But if exorbitant ticket prices kept them from experiencing it in person, gift them this tee along with a pair of tickets to see Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé in theaters.

Bumblebee Stud Post Earrings

Her iconic honey bee RWT costume made a great argument for why we all need more bee themed items in our wardrobe. Let these bumblebee studs serve as the first foray into the genre for your giftee. They're dainty and subtle enough to go flawlessly with several outfits.

HEATED Large Concert Hand Fan

When they need to cool down, they'll want to have this on hand to fan themselves off. It's small enough for easy travel and sturdy enough to provide a nice current of air. And if Heated is their favorite song off of the Renaissance album, they'll immediately love it.

Beyoncé Official Renaissance World Tour Sticker Pack

They'll get 16 stickers featuring stunning images of Bey. The best part about a gift like this is, they can be used to decorate their laptop, be put in picture frames to make cool decor or just kept out on the table for people to shuffle through.

Beyoncé Renassiance Sweatpants

The thick material is a huge plus, according to Amazon reviewers. "These are the most comfortable, thick sweatpants I’ve ever had. They wash well and have yet to fade. Well worth the amount of money I spent," one person wrote.

Liberté Egalité Beyoncé

Queen Bey is all about empowerment and girl power. (Who runs the world?) This book takes you on a tour of her most poignant quotes with lovely illustrations. It'll make a great addition to their coffee table.

Beyoncé Renaissance Merch Singer Throw Blanket

Cozy season has arrived, and we're sure they'll want to spend most of their winter days snuggled up under this RWT throw. It features illustrations from each song on the Renaissance album and is super soft.

Everybody on Mute Renaissance Satin Silk Sleep Eye Mask

The mute challenge was definitely a highlight of the RWT. Let them reminisce with this adorable satin sleep mask, which will also remind others not to stir them while they sleep.

Cé Noir EAU DE PARFUM

Beyoncé's newest fragrance Cé Noir just hit the market this year, and boasts a blend of clementine, golden honey, rose absolute and golden amber notes. While this gift will definitely be a splurge for your Hive member, they'll love the fact that Bey said she wore the scent several times throughout RWT. "Gotta keep it fresh. … And that is CÉ NOIR, say no more,” she said in an Instagram video where she unboxed the perfume.

Disco Ball Planter

If they want to bring a little bit of club renaissance home with them, this disco ball planter is the perfect gift. They can fill it with a small live plant (or a fake one) and when it catches the sunlight it'll inspire them to "dance all night."

Beyoncé Renaissance Cross Stitch Ornament

Creative and innovative, these cross stitch ornaments are both. They feature designs inspired by Renaissance album art and the most recognizable costumes from RWT. Gift one or a few to make a complete set that they can adorn their tree with each year.

Beyoncé A Little Golden Book Biography

When it comes to Beyoncé fandom, it's always best to start them early. Gift this illustrated biography to any little ones who are obsessed with her dancing and singing. It outlines her rise to fame, from singing with the girl group Destiny's Child to becoming a superstar.

I Slay - Formation Lyric Poster

Sometimes they may need the reminder that they "slay." Gift them this Formation lyric poster featuring an illustration of Bey's most unforgettable Lemonade look.

Clear Acrylic Horse Christmas Ornament

For another nod to RWT, gift this acrylic horse ornament that mimics the one she brought out for her Summer Renaissance performance. If they outfit their tree with silver tinsel and other cross stitch ornaments, they can create a look fit for an alien superstar.

Masterclass of Makeup with Sir John

Let them learn from celebrity makeup artist Sir John, who has beat the face of Queen Bey herself, and has been her long-time collaborator. In a series of three courses, they'll become a pro at the “No-Makeup” look, the “Everyday” look and the “Icon” look.

She'll be extremely "comfortable" in her skin while rocking this pair of socks that sport the word "cozy," in reference to Beyoncé's song of the same name. Gift them as a stocking stuffer or pair them with the Renaissance throw blanket for the ultimate cozy set.

RENAISSANCE Deluxe Edition Vinyl

We don't doubt that they've had Renaissance on repeat since its release, however with this deluxe edition vinyl, they'll get to experience Queen Bey's latest music in a new way. The vinyl comes with a 36-page booklet of iconic visuals and a collectable 24”x 36” poster that's large enough to be featured on a gallery wall or hung in their bedroom.

Beyoncé Flawless Black Queen Spiral Notebook

The 2013 anthem will never get old, and neither will this notebook with a bold reminder that they are indeed "flawless." They can use it to jot down quick reminders or even to get started on song lyrics of their own.

On 'Til Dawn Mattifying Waterproof Setting Spray

A performer of Beyoncé's caliber is unfazed when things don't go according to plan. And when she had to dance in a downpour of rain during her concert over the summer, her makeup held up thanks to this setting spray. Though it was sold out for weeks following, now is a great time to gift it to the person in your life who needs makeup that won't budge.

I'm That Girl Coffee Mug

Start their morning off with a little reminder of all that they bring to the table. This black and white mug that features the phrase "I'm That Girl," referencing Beyoncé's song, will encourage them to power through whatever tasks they need to complete for the day. It is dishwasher safe and will hold all of their favorite coffees and teas.

Live updates: ‘It’s the unity’: Charlotte shows up for Beyoncé, Renaissance World Tour

Who’s ready for BeyDay in Charlotte?

The Renaissance has finally arrived in the Queen City as Beyoncé is set to perform on Wednesday night at Bank of America Stadium . In preparation, Charlotte has responded with dances , food specials , spectacular outfits and a planned clear night of weather . Fans are over the world for the pop icon’s stop. Here’s how Charlotte reacted to the concert:

5:30 p.m.: Fans wait in merch lines ahead of gates opening

Beyoncé fans waited in multiple lines — some about 50 people deep — about 5:30 p.m. Friday to get their official Renaissance World Tour merchandise.

The merchandise truck, which sat just off the corner of South Mint and South Graham streets outside Bank of America Stadium , offered T-shirts, sweatshirts, keychains and more.

Kim and Meilis White, a mother-daughter duo who came to Charlotte from Rock Hill for the show, said they’d been in line for about 15 minutes.

“We’re just looking,” Kim said.

Meilis - who previously saw Beyoncé when she toured with her husband, Jay-Z — said she’s excited to see her musical idol since childhood again.

It’s Kim’s first time seeing the megastar.

“We’re excited to hear good music,” she said.

– Mary Ramsey

5:45 p.m. | Last minute choice is the best outfit choice for Beyoncé

Rhonda K. Bryant, 35, styled herself and her cousin, Tiffany, 35, for the Beyoncé concert.

She loves pink, so she chose to wear an all-pink ensemble, featuring a pink catsuit, sleeves and pink metallic cowboy boots. She customized her cowboy hat with stickers listing some of Beyoncé’s songs.

She planned her outfit yesterday, she said. She admits her outfit was a last-minute choice.

“That’s when I get my best ideas,” she said.

Tiffany Bryant wore open-toe clear heels, brown scrunched pants and a green and brown marbled sleeveless top. She said her cousin planned her outfit on Tuesday, before Rhonda had planned her own concert attire. Everything she wore she already had in her closet.

A Renaissance in Charlotte: Thousands of fans descend on Queen City for Beyoncé

5:55 p.m. | “I’ve got to bring my A-game”

Kelyn Maynard, 34, was inspired by ballroom for her outfit, which consisted of long, black mesh gloves, a black two-piece and a sparkly bandana.

“It’s Renaissance, so of course you got to go all out,” she said. “So I did look at her tour earlier in London. Everybody was going blinged out. So, I was like, ‘OK, I’ve got to I’ve got to bring my A-game.’”

6 p.m.: Crowds swell uptown ahead of Beyoncé show

Thousands filled the sidewalks and streets outside Bank of America Stadium by 6 p.m., ahead of gates opening for Beyoncé’s show.

Fans were dispersed among gates around the stadium, but some lines still grew to a city block or more.

Doors open at 6:30 p.m., except for VIP ticket holders, who could get in as early at 6 p.m.

7 p.m.: Musicians get the party started outside BofA Stadium

From a violinist to a drummer and a brass band, the music started in uptown even before Beyoncé takes the stage.

Multiple musicians were playing right outside of Bank of America stadium Wednesday evening as concertgoers arrived for the Renaissance World Tour.

Some in line danced along to the tunes and left tips for the musicians.

7 p.m. | Raleigh fan “taking it all in”

Trevor Roberts from Raleigh spent months in preparation for the concert but says it is all worth it.

“I’m seeing Beyonce just perform. She’s an amazing performer, vocalist. I’m just excited to see her, oh my gosh,” Roberts said.

His favorite song from the Renaissance album is “Energy,” but Roberts said he doesn’t care which songs she performs. He’s just happy to see Beyoncé in person.

“I think that I’ll be speechless. And just kind of taking in, I like to sing and all of that, to like perform so I’m just going to take that in, you know, and kind of take in in her expertise,” Roberts said.

– Terry Benjamin

7:15 p.m. | “Anything for Beyoncé”

Alana Abad from Virginia Beach is coming to the concert as a birthday trip from her best friend.

“I’m very excited and just surprised, they were like, ‘You want to go to Beyoncé?’ and I’m like, ‘Who doesn’t want to go to Beyonce?’” Abad said.

Abad said the drive from Virginia to Charlotte was worth it. “We took a little drive, but anything for Beyoncé, am I right?” she said.

The moment she hopes for most is to see a certain special guest.

“I’m hoping to tell everyone that I saw Blue Ivy. That’s probably going to be my most hyped moment, “ Abad said.

7:15 p.m. | “It will represent the queen, Beyoncé”

Torrey Dixon, 45, wore a white cowboy hat, plaid pants and a Beyoncé T-shirt. He got his shirt a couple of days ago, but he’s been thinking about what he was going to wear for weeks. He wanted to combine the ideas of style, comfort and his love of Beyoncé, he said.

“That’s why I mixed these together. I thought, ‘It will be comfortable, it will be cool, it will be sexy and it will represent the queen, Beyoncé,” he said.

7:20 p.m. | “Freedom of expression”

Jamar Holloway, 34, wore an outfit from a fast-fashion retailer. He said his white tank top is an homage to Beyoncé’s “Crazy In Love” music video. His sparkly cowboy hat and sneakers coordinated with his silver holographic nail polish.

Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour is a “freedom of expression,” Holloway said.

7:20 p.m. | “Something outrageous”

Tommy Bennett, 67, is from Danville, Virginia. He said he found pieces of his outfit at a vintage boutique in his hometown. Before deciding on his outfit, he laid out about five different options. He decided to throw on a mix of different styles, paired with an extremely wide-brimmed sun hat.

“I always wear something outrageous,” he said. “When I saw this hat online I said, ‘It’s going to be hot, and I’m going to need some shade.’”

He wore his hat with a newsprint blazer, white cowboy boots and a pair of black and white shorts.

“I wanted to wear something shorter than short, so I decided on hot pants,” he said.

He said it is amazing to see the network of people Beyoncé is bringing to her tour. As the present of his local NAACP branch, he said, this kind of event is what the organization encourages.

“I love it. You can reach out to everybody — everybody’s here,” he said. “It’s fashion, its personality and it sends a message to bring everyone together.”

7:30 p.m. | “Disco alien cowgirl” outfits

Kitty Hear, 23, was styled by her friend Gavin Jambora, 20, who bought their tickets to the show on presale. He created her bedazzled her black cowboy hat and sent her inspiration photos for a concert outfit. The two friends said everyone’s outfits were very disco and 1980s inspired. They described it as, “disco alien cowgirl.”

“I think the concept of Renaissance in 2023 is an Afrofuturism Western theme,” Hear said. “Because with the popularization of (the movie) “Get Out”, that was also another black Afro-American Western. It’s kind of like a reclamation.”

“I don’t really know where (the Western aspect) came from,” Jambora added. “But if Beyoncé tells us to do it, we’re going to do it.”

Hear wore loose-knit knee-high socks that she bought from Amazon. She said the Renaissance tour style has to do with mixing textures just as much as mixing colors. People around the stadium seemed to exemplify that idea as denim was paired with leather, sparkles, pearls and knits.

Jambora paired his silver disco pants with a large tinsel poncho and matching boots. They both carried matching pink paper fans, an accessory many concert-goers brought to fight the intense afternoon sun.

The Renaissance tour aesthetic is Jambora’s favorite of Beyonce’s albums.

“It’s just giving: ‘Be who you want and do what you want,’” he said.

He said he enjoys dressing up for concerts because he can be comfortable knowing everybody is also going to be dressing up, he said.

7:30 p.m. | “It’s the unity”

Keli Green is looking at this concert as something special, seeing everyone from different backgrounds and ethnicities all together.

“It’s the unity — everybody is in their silver and black. I’m seeing all people here just happy and enjoying themselves,” Green said.

Being there in her eyes is something momentous.

“We’re a part of history with actually being here, so I’m excited to be a part of it,” Green said.

7:30 p.m. | Lines dying down as concert start time nears

The lines to get into Bank of America Stadium that once spilled into the street were largely contained in the stadium by 7:30 p.m.

Some groups of fans were still making their way through uptown for the show, stopping to take pictures and making sure their mobile tickets were loaded properly.

7:45 p.m. | A “cultural reset”

Stacy Sprinkles, 21, wore a custom-made bodysuit that she had made overseas in the U.K. She started thinking about her outfit three months ago and wanted to look like a walking disco ball. She spent between $600-$700 on her outfit, she said.

“I wanted to be really shiny and over the top,” she said.

Sprinkles said Beyoncé is combining old school and new school with the Renaissance tour look. She described the tour as a “cultural reset.”

Sparkles was sitting with her friend, Melody Rose, 21. It was Rose’s first time seeing Beyoncé, and Sprinkles’ first concert. They are both big Beyoncé fans, they said, and play her music around the house.

Rose wore a holographic silver two-piece set with a futuristic pair of platform boots. She based her outfit around the boots, she said.

Her priority with her outfit was to make a statement, she said, which she felt like she accomplished. She was inspired by the Renaissance album song “Alien Superstar,” and channeled that in her outfit.

“She’s making underground culture and making it mainstream,” Sprinkles said.

7:50 p.m. | Beyoncé wore all black, so she wore all black

Annie Hobson, 19, and her friend Kaitlyn Golyski, 19, traveled from Aiken, South Carolina, for the concert.

Hobson and Golyski used social media to find inspiration for their outfits. Hobson said she used Pinterest to find outfits based on what other people wore to previous shows.

Golyski, who used Pinterest, Instagram and TikTok to find outfit inspiration, said she pulled inspiration from a show where Beyoncé wore all black, so she wore all black.

Golyski also attended Taylor Swift’s Eras tour . She said she thinks one similarity between the two tours is that concert-goers channel the style of the artist when choosing their outfits.

She said she doesn’t think the outfits from Beyoncé’s tour are as extreme as Swift’s Eras tour.

8 p.m. | “I feel seen”

Dallan Russell, 22, stood about one foot above the crowd in his platform shoes. The boots were paired with a cowboy hat, an embellished bodysuit and a silver metallic skirt. He said putting together his outfit was stressful because he ordered so much of it online and worried he wouldn’t be able to get all the pieces in time.

He said his outfit is inspired by his favorite song on the Renaissance album, “Alien Superstar.” His outfit had a diamonds-and-pearls theme, he said.

Looking at other people’s concert outfits also helped him choose his look, he said. He used TikTok for inspiration, as well.

“I feel seen,” Russell said. “She acknowledged the LGBT community and ballroom culture.”... “She paid homage to a lot of Queer people.”

He described ballroom culture as, “a group of people in the room showcasing their talents, dancing, showing face and their outfit, being present, being them unapologetically and living their lives.”

Russell has no other chance to dress up like he did for the Renaissance tour — it is his version of the Met Gala, he said.

8 p.m. | “Breathing the same air as Beyoncé”

Antonio Hines said he was raised on Beyoncé’s music and that it is amazing being able to see her live.

“I feel like we’ve been listening to Beyoncé since like elementary school. It’s just a full circle moment,” Hines said.”We will literally be breathing the same air as Beyoncé. I came, I saw, I conquered.”

8:15 p.m. | “Life-changing experience”

Johannah Shelton from Asheville was able to go to see Beyoncé due to her friends having a spare ticket a month prior to the concert. Now, being in Charlotte, she is looking forward to what’s in store.

“I feel like this is about to be a life-changing experience,” Shelton said.

Beyoncé announces 2023 ‘renaissance tour.’ here’s where she’s performing.

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.

The Beyhive is buzzing like never before.

After much speculation, Beyoncé has officially announced her highly anticipated stadium “Renaissance Tour.”

Seven years after her “Formation Tour” and five years after the “On The Run II Tour” with her husband Jay Z, the 28-time Grammy winner (and 88-time nominee!) will embark on her solo headlining “Renaissance Tour” in support of her critically acclaimed chart-topping 2022 album “Renaissance” all summer long.

The international tour will start overseas in Sweden, Belgium, the U.K., France and Germany in May before she returns to North America for 29 huge stadium concerts starting July 8 at Toronto’s Rogers Centre .

And although Queen Bey isn’t coming to the Big Apple on the run — as of now — she will get close to the City That Never Sleeps.

On July 29 and July 30 , Mrs. Knowles is set to touch down at East Rutherford’s MetLife Stadium for two huge back-to-back concerts.

She’s familiar with the venue too. The last show of her “Formation Tour” was at the Giants and Jets’ home stadium on Oct. 7, 2016. That time around, she brought Jay Z and Kendrick Lamar onstage with her.

Who will she bring this time? Will she sing the same songs she did at her recent Dubai concert?

All we know is the best way to find out is live.

Beyoncé opening acts

At the time of publication, Beyoncé does not have any opening acts lined up for her 2023 “Renaissance Tour” although there are rumors that 74-year-old singer Grace Jones will be joining her swirling on Twitter .

We personally can’t get enough of Jones’ seven-minute cover of Roxy Music’s “Love Is the Drug.”

In 2016, Knowles was joined by DJ Khaled on the “Formation Tour.” Two years later, she co-headlined with her husband and fellow 88-time Grammy nominee Jay Z on the “On The Run II Tour.”

Beyoncé “Renaissance” album

Knowles’ “Renaissance” was the most critically-acclaimed album of 2022 showing up on countless year-end lists as 2022’s best.

The 16-track album, clocking in at just a little over an hour was also extremely popular with fans as well quickly charting at number on the Billboard 200, making it Beyoncé’s seventh album to hit the top spot.

However, the record that brought the world “Break My Soul” may have more to it.

Beyoncé has hinted that the record is part of a three-part series; in a June 28, 2022 announcement she called it “Act I.”

Since the album’s release, it has undergone a few transformations.

According to Pitchfork, Beyoncé “replaced ableist lyrics in “ Heated ,” and  removed  an interpolation of  Kelis ’ “Milkshake” on “Energy” after Kelis said  she was not informed  by Beyoncé and her team that her music was going to be used on the new album.”

She also reportedly dropped  Honey Dijon  and  Madonna  remixes of “Break My Soul.”

Beyoncé Grammys

Beyonce’s seventh studio album “Renaissance,” netted nine Grammy nominations for Album of the Year, Song of the Year, Record of the Year, Best Dance/Electronic Recording, Best Dance/Electronic Album, Best R&B Performance, Best Traditional R&B Performance, Best R&B Song and Best Song Written For Visual Media.

The nine nominations tie Beyonce with her husband Jay Z for most all-time Grammy nominations with 88 apiece.

Huge concert tours in 2023

While a Beyoncé tour announcement may trump all others in terms of hype, there quite a few exciting tours to look out for in the next few months.

Here are just five of our favorite, can’t miss concerts that may be coming to a city near you soon.

Beyoncé announces Renaissance world tour, as fans brace for ticket rush

• Published 1 February 2023

Beyoncé has announced a 43-date world tour in support of her critically-acclaimed Renaissance album, including five nights in the UK.

The shows will kick off in Sweden on 10 May, before landing at Cardiff's Principality stadium a week later.

Further UK dates will take place in Edinburgh on 20 May, Sunderland on 23 May and London's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on 29 and 30 May.

Ticket demand is expected to be huge for her first solo tour since 2016.

A series of pre-sales for the star's UK shows will begin at 10:00 GMT on Thursday, before tickets then go on general sale on Tuesday.

In North America, fans are being asked to register for Ticketmaster's Verified Fan process - which the company says will filter out touts - before ticket pre-sales open on Monday.

Those who have registered will be entered into a "lottery-style process" if demand outstrips the number of available tickets.

Politicians in the US, who are already investigating Ticketmaster over the fumbled sale of Taylor Swift's Eras tour, will be keeping an eagle eye on how the systems cope with Beyoncé's concerts.

• Ticketmaster sorry for Taylor Swift ticket fiasco
• Buying concert tickets can be hell. Here's how to fix it

Last week, Beyoncé performed her first headlining concert in four years at the opening of a luxury hotel in Dubai, but did not play any of her new material.

She was reportedly paid $24m (£19.4m) for the one-off show, but faced criticism for performing in a country where homosexuality and gender reassignment are outlawed.

Critics said that contradicted the message of her latest album, which explicitly celebrates black and queer dance culture.

Beyoncé conceived the album as "a place to dream and to find escape" during the pandemic, layering her songs with multiple samples and references to club music, from Nile Rodgers' Studio 54 disco grooves and Grace Jones' imperious soul, to less-celebrated movements like bounce and dancehall.

Beyoncé revises Renaissance album after complaints

Exclaim magazine called it "the sound of a once-in-a-generation superstar performing at her peak", while the Guardian described it as "a breath-taking, maximalist tour de force".

Unusually, Beyoncé has avoided making music videos for the album, meaning the Renaissance tour will be fans' first chance to see her visual interpretation of tracks like Break My Soul, Alien Superstar and Cuff It.

The former Destiny's Child star may reveal further details at this weekend's Grammys, where she is up for nine awards, including album of the year.

The singer previously hinted at plans for a world tour in October, when she raffled tickets to a show during the fifth annual Wearable Art Gala.

Images shared from the auction suggested the "unique" prize, valued at $20,000 (£16,200), included first-class plane tickets, a three-night hotel stay, two concert tickets and a guided backstage tour from Beyoncé's mother.
