Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter Tour Becomes the Biggest Country Tour in History With $407.6 Million in Revenue
Beyoncé has made history once again. Her Cowboy Carter Tour has officially become the highest-grossing country music tour of all time, raking in an astounding $407.6 million across just 32 shows.
The tour, which supported her genre-blending album Cowboy Carter, drew over 1.6 million fans in less than four months. On average, each show brought in about $12.7 million, with nearly 50,000 attendees per concert and a typical ticket price of $255. Despite being a relatively short tour, it became the fastest ever to cross the $400 million mark, breaking multiple sales and attendance records in cities across the U.S. and Europe.
Beyoncé shattered Boxscore records at major venues like SoFi Stadium (Los Angeles), MetLife Stadium (New Jersey), Tottenham Hotspur Stadium (London), and Stade de France (Paris). In particular, she set a new high at MetLife Stadium by earning over $70 million in just five shows, the largest single-stadium run reported on a single tour.
The final stop of the tour in Las Vegas featured a surprise reunion of Destiny’s Child, with Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams joining Beyoncé on stage. Their performance added an emotional and nostalgic ending to what many are calling one of the most influential tours of the decade.
Not only did the Cowboy Carter Tour dominate financially, but it also made a powerful cultural statement. By blending country, soul, pop, and R&B while addressing Black identity in a traditionally white-dominated genre, Beyoncé challenged long-standing norms and broadened the scope of country music.
This tour marks Beyoncé’s second tour to cross $400 million, following the success of her Renaissance World Tour, making her the first woman and American artist to achieve that milestone twice.
