BEYONCE announces New World Tour
February 19, 2016
Just moments after her Super Bowl 50 halftime performance,
Beyonce announced her “Formation” tour. With an average of 115 million
people tuning in to watch the halftime show, Beyonce has started tour
promotion off strong.
Ticket sales will be released Monday, February 15, with costs being
estimated from $65 to over a thousand dollars for prime seats. Beyonce is
set to start touring in April with stops in major U.S. cities as well as
European countries including Italy, Germany and Sweden. More tour
dates will be added once available shows sell out. If Beyonce’s last tour is
any indication of how “Formation” will go, she is in for quite a paycheck.
Her “On The Run” tour with Jay Z in 2014 grossed $96 million.
The “Formation” music video has already been viewed over 20
million times and many expect a new album release sometime before the
tour begins. Her self titled album released two years ago grossed $1
million in the first week of sales. As for now, people everywhere are
getting their bank accounts in formation for coveted tickets.
