The first leg of Beyoncé’s “The Formation World Tour” raked in an impressive $123 million, according to box office numbers submitted by concert promoter Live Nation this week.
Throughout the tour’s first leg, which saw the singer perform in 23 sold-out arenas across the United States and Canada, a total of 972,719 people flocked to watch Queen Bey perform hits from her widely revered catalogue, including her most recent album LEMONADE.
At present, Beyoncé is trekking through Europe for the second leg of the three-part tour. The singer’s August 3 stop at Barcelona’s Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys stadium serves as her final stop on the continent.
As many fans and commentators expected, tickets for the tour have been in huge demand ever since it was first announced back in February. As such, Beyoncé was compelled to add two additional dates to the first and second legs of the tour, with an additional show taking place in Chicago on May 28 and London on July 3.
Beyoncé’s “The Formation World Tour” returns to North America for its third and final leg at the start of September, where the singer will perform in front of crowds in nine different cities across the country. The first performance is scheduled for September 7 at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, while the tour is set to bow out on October 2 at Nashville’s Nissan Stadium.
The financial success of “The Formation World Tour” serves as the latest tour triumph for Beyoncé. The singer’s “The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour” grossed $212 million in 2013-14, according to Billboard Boxscore. A few months later, Beyoncé followed that up with her “On The Run Tour” with husband Jay Z, which hauled in $96 million from just 21 shows across North America and Europe.

and how much of that money will go to the Black Rights Matter movement? You guessed it, $0.
How much of your paycheck do you donate to the cause?
That’s petty. This n*gga probably ain’t even gettin no more than $550 a check..bi weekly at that! Them some crazy #s Beyonce is doing..plus she rides the black lives matter movement’s d*ck like she’d rides Jay Z’s for publicity like she’s actually down..therefore she should contribute to the movement. Why would a struggling nicca donate $ and he can barely take care of himself? While these people are living in homes with 5000 bedrooms? She can contribute to the movement she “Supports”
So you want her to announce his much she donated . I did not know the black movement until formation . So shut your mouth. If Beyoncé was a men some white peoples eiykd be claiming sexual abuse. Thank god she is a woman
You need to shut your fuck1n mouth!
How much does Beyonce get after Live Nation, Sony, Travel, Personal Staff, Dan and all the others – that is the question?
