The post 10 Reasons to Get Last-Minute Tickets to Beyoncé’s “Renaissance Tour” appeared first on Consequence.

It’s been half a decade since Queen Bey last graced the States with a tour, and it’s been even longer since her last proper solo outing. But in just a few days, that’s all about to change. The most decorated Grammy winner of all time is finally back, with Beyoncé embarking on the North American leg of her “Renaissance World Tour.”

With the European run now officially in the books, this latest spectacle is already proving to be a monumental force in live music. According to a StubHub report, tickets to Beyonce’s “Renaissance Tour” performances are the second most in-demand of the summer, only coming in behind Taylor Swift’s “Eras Tour.”

But while the initial ticket-buying process for the “Renaissance Tour” was nowhere near as disastrous as that of the “Eras Tour,” the shows still sold out damn near instantly. Luckily, there’s still time to pick up last-minute tickets — and for cheaper than you’d expect. (That’s especially true if you’re willing to go outside your normal market; hello $85 dollar Pittsburgh tickets!) So, in case you need that extra motivation to go see Queen Bey, here are 10 first-hand accounts of just how incredible the tour has been thus far.

It’s Not a Concert, It’s a Spectacle:

I mean, this is Beyoncé we’re talking about — you really think she’d come out and just sing? Hell no. The stage show for this tour is elaborate, exciting, and unpredictable. Broken into seven distinct acts, Beyoncé and her team clearly spent countless hours meticulously designing every aspect of what would appear on the stage, from the audio to the visuals to the underlying themes of the setlist. It’s a level of effort unmatched by most even at her level, and it’s exactly what her music deserves.

And the Outfits, oh, the Outfits:

And what’s a high-quality Beyoncé production without the best, most eye-catching costume design of the year? The outfits the pop star performs in somehow manage to match the extravagance and spectacle of the surrounding show. What’s more, she’s continuously reinventing the look throughout the tour. Only the Queen herself knows what’s in store for North America, but if the European shows were any indication, there will be looks for the books.

Come for Bey, Stay for Blue Ivy:

So far, the “Renaissance Tour” has been a family effort. Her husband — a fairly successful rapper you may have heard of, JAY-Z — has been by her side before and after the performances, and her daughter Blue Ivy has quickly become one of the main highlights of the show. Showing off just how much talent she inherited from her mother, Blue Ivy has been dancing at a number of stops on the tour. As seen in fan videos, the crowds have even begun anticipating it, holding up blue balloons during the concert in Frankfurt to celebrate the young talent.

Even Lizzo is Fangirling Out:

Though the tour is undoubtedly geared towards the general public, that hasn’t stopped the stars from making it out as well. From Tom Holland and Zendaya to Megan Thee Stallion, there’s a good chance you’ll be able to spot a celebrity in the pit at any of these shows. Lizzo, in particular, has to be one of the most excited celebrity fans, as seen in this fan-shot video of her getting hyped during a performance of “Church Girl.” We’re right there with you, Lizzo.

It’s a Celebration in More Ways Than One:

Whether you have a summer birthday or not, why not treat the “Renaissance Tour” as your own little celebration? Hell, call it Christmas in July. Or, you can be like one special fan, who utilized the night to celebrate their recent divorce — a divorce party, if you will. Queen Bey even gave them a shout-out mid-performance as she was dangling from the ceiling — something she does multiple times during the concert, even while riding a diamond horse. Happy divorce party, indeed.

It’s the Only Acceptable Gender Reveal Party:

Happy couples can get in on the celebration, as well. Gender reveal parties may be one of the most tiresome trends of the millennium, but if there’s one way to do it right, it’s surrounded by tens of thousands of strangers and having an iconic pop star tell everyone the good news. That’s what happened with these fans in Cologne, Germany, who received congratulations from the entire stadium as Beyoncé told them who would soon run their world (a girl, of course). They better name that bey-be Giselle.

Learn About the Important Issues:

The mainstream news media has been under fire for what seems like an eternity. As consumers, who can we trust?! Who has our best interests in mind?! Is anyone looking out for the little guy?! Luckily, there’s one news network out there that’s truly for the people: Beyoncé’s KNTY News. Don’t miss their next informative broadcast at an arena near you.

Make Your Granny Jealous:

At this point in her career, Beyoncé is for everyone. No matter what generation you come from, where in the world you’re from, or what style of music you usually listen to, you probably love Beyoncé. Which is to say, attending the “Renaissance Tour” is one of the most efficient ways to make everyone you know jealous beyond belief. From your friends to your grandmother, everyone is going to be kicking themselves that they didn’t tag along with you.

So Good, One Show’s Not Enough:

There is, of course, one primary danger when attending the “Renaissance Tour”: One show might prove to be not enough to quench your Renaissance thirst. Walking out of the arena, you may be filled with motivation to buy tickets to the next three or four dates, tailing the tour bus across the next few states. It’s a common feeling, and not one to be ashamed of, nor one that should be immediately dismissed. Because…

Luckily, It’s Easier to Get Tickets Than You Think:

The resale ticket prices for the North American shows have gone drastically down since the initial craziness of the general on-sale. At StubHub, where you can snag tickets to even a sold-out show knowing that you’re protected with a 100% guarantee through StubHub’s FanProtect program, some dates are even currently going for under face value. Though tour-wide averages come in around $375, you can snag tickets as low as $90 (Charlotte, Seattle), $75 (Atlanta, New Orleans), and even $42 (St. Louis, Kansas City).
