In just one week, on April 28, 2025, Beyoncé will launch her highly anticipated COWBOY CARTER Tour at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. Following the monumental success of her Grammy-winning album Cowboy Carter and her record-breaking Renaissance World Tour, this tour promises to be a cultural moment, blending country-inspired artistry with Beyoncé’s unmatched stage presence. Here’s everything you need to know about what to expect from this spectacular stadium run, also dubbed the Cowboy Carter and the Rodeo Chitlin’ Circuit Tour.

A Celebration of Cowboy Carter Groundbreaking Legacy

Beyoncé’s eighth studio album, Cowboy Carter (released March 29, 2024), made history as the first album by a Black woman to top the Billboard Country Albums chart. It earned 11 Grammy nominations and won three, including Album of the Year and Best Country Album in 2025. The tour will bring this genre-defying project to life, celebrating its fusion of country, Americana, pop, and R&B while honoring the legacy of Black artists in country music. Expect the setlist to feature tracks like “Texas Hold ’Em,” “16 Carriages,” “Blackbiird,” and “Sweet Honey Buckiin’,” many of which debuted live during Beyoncé’s electrifying NFL halftime performance on Christmas Day 2024.

A Theatrical, Country-Inspired Spectacle

Beyoncé’s tours are known for their meticulous production, and the COWBOY CARTER Tour will deliver. The NFL halftime show offered a preview: a Western-themed extravaganza with cowboy hats, fringe, and rodeo-inspired energy. The tour’s subtitle, “Rodeo Chitlin’ Circuit,” nods to the historic network of venues where Black musicians performed during segregation, suggesting a show that celebrates resilience and cultural heritage.

Beyoncé’s mother, Tina Knowles, has teased that the tour’s wardrobe will make it “the most exciting night of your life.” Expect bold, country-glam outfits with bedazzled denim, cowboy boots, and platinum blonde aesthetics, as seen in the album’s imagery. The stage may incorporate neon signs, as hinted in the tour’s announcement video, and possibly horses or Western motifs, given Beyoncé’s horseback imagery. Fans can anticipate intricate choreography, innovative visuals, and a larger-than-life atmosphere, building on the Renaissance World Tour’s immersive production.

Potential Guest Appearances and Collaborators

Cowboy Carter features a star-studded lineup of collaborators, and fans are buzzing about possible guest appearances. Artists like Post Malone, Miley Cyrus, Shaboozey, Tanner Adell, Brittney Spencer, Tiera Kennedy, and Reyna Roberts joined Beyoncé for the NFL halftime show, fueling speculation they could appear on select tour dates. Her daughter, Blue Ivy, who danced alongside her mother during the Renaissance World Tour and the halftime performance, might also make cameos, adding a heartwarming family element. While the previous tour had no official opening acts, this one could feature rising Black country artists to amplify the album’s mission.
