Beyoncé Announces 'Renaissance' World Tour

Beyoncé Announces 'Renaissance' World Tour

The rumors are true, Beyoncé is taking her record-breaking album Renaissance on a tour around the world.

The superstar dropped the news this Wednesday morning on Instagram. In a post, she shared a photo of herself wearing a bejeweled armor-like bodysuit and silver mirrored cowboy hat, and sitting atop a holographic horse. "RENAISSANCE WORLD TOUR 2023," she simply wrote in the caption.

Beyoncé released her seventh studio album in July 29, 2022, after recording it over three years during the COVID-19 pandemic. The singer wrote about the project in an open letter to fans, "Creating this album allowed me a place to dream and to find escape during a scary time for the world. It allowed me to feel free and adventurous in a time when little else was moving. My intention was to create a safe place, a place without judgement, a place to be free of perfectionism and overthinking. A place to scream, release, feel freedom. It was a beautiful journey of exploration."

With Renaissance, Beyoncé has broke Grammy Awards history. For this year's ceremony—which takes place this coming weekend—the star is nominated for nine Grammys, bringing her up to a total of 88 nominations to date. In a romantic turn, this ties her for the most nominated artist in Grammy history with none other than her husband, Jay-Z.

Beyoncé's Renaissance smash "Break My Soul" is nominated for Record Of The Year at the 2023 GRAMMYs. This is her eighth nomination in the category, and makes her the artist with the most ROTY nominations of all time. The track is also up for Best Dance/Electronic Recording, and the album is nominated for Best Dance/Electronic Music Album.

Beyoncé has yet to announce her Renaissance World Tour dates.
