Beyoncé’s “Renaissance World Tour” tickets are now on sale. General sale tickets for Beyoncé’s upcoming U.K. tour go on sale later today, at 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday. She’ll be performing in London, Cardiff, Edinburgh, and Sunderland, among other places.

Following the announcement, millions of fans have waited in line at Ticketmaster. The concerts will be Beyoncé’s first solo appearances in the United Kingdom since 2016.

The cost of a seated ticket to Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour ranges from £56 to £2,400 for a VIP “on-stage” front-row experience. In anticipation of their popularity, three additional London dates have already been added. With this many fans already waiting in line, Beyoncé may add more dates.

Tickets for Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour went on sale in the United States last week. As shows quickly sold out, the iconic pop star added shows in Toronto, Washington D.C., Chicago, and Los Angeles, among other cities.

According to a press release from Live Nation, fan demand exceeded available seats by more than 800%. “The majority of interested fans are still expected to be unable to obtain tickets,” they said. “Demand vastly outnumbers supply.”

Fans on Twitter have been complaining about the long lines all morning. “I’m in line for the 6/1 show,” one user wrote. Unless 400k people turned down tickets before me… Beyoncé is driving me insane. “All I want to do is watch the show.” Another was added: “Every time I decide I’ve given up on Beyonce tickets she adds a new date – and then there’s still 150k+ people in the queue in front of me!”

The announcement of Beyoncé’s U.K. tour dates comes after the “Break My Soul” singer broke the record for most Grammy wins ever. She has received 32 Recording Academy trophies over the course of her career. The schedule for Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour in the United Kingdom is available below.
