Beyoncé Announces ‘Renaissance' World Tour, 2 Shows in DC Area

Beyoncé's Renaissance World Tour comes to FedExField on Aug. 5 and 6, 2023

Beyoncé is going to get “HEATED” in the Washington, D.C., area.

Queen Bey is taking her Renaissance album on a world tour in 2023, and that includes two stops at FedExField in Landover, Maryland on Saturday, Aug. 5, and Sunday, Aug. 6.

She dropped the tour news Wednesday in an Instagram post showing herself in jewel-studded lingerie and a silver cowboy hat riding a shining mosaic horse. The second show was announced Thursday.

The Renaissance tour includes more than three dozen stops starting in Stockholm, then going onto Philadelphia, Louisville, Chicago, New York, Boston and more. And unlike Taylor Swift, who snubbed D.C. in her latest tour announcement, Beyoncé won't break our souls.

It’s the “Single Ladies” singer’s first major tour since 2018’s “On the Run II.”

The first step to getting a ticket is to register using Ticketmaster's Verified Fan tool. Special Verified Fan registration is available to BeyHive Members and Citi Cardmembers. Click here for the registration page.

Registration for the D.C. show is now open until noon ET on Friday, Feb. 3, according to Ticketmaster. Registration does not guarantee a ticket.

"A lottery-style process will determine which registered Verified Fans will receive a unique access code and which will be put on the waitlist," Ticketmaster says.

The next step? Ticketmaster told us to check our emails on Friday, Feb. 10 for details.

Lucky fans who get a unique access code on Friday will be able to access the Verified Fan Onsale starting Saturday, Feb. 11, according to Ticketmaster.

D.C. is in Registration Group A, meaning its registration period closes before most other cities. If you miss out, registration for the Philadelphia and Pennsylvania shows was set to be open until Thursday, Feb. 16 at 11:59 p.m. ET.

The big question remains: Can Ticketmaster handle the BeyHive? The vendor is hoping staggered sales will make a smooth experience.
