ATLANTA - Beyoncé is bringing a little bit of Texas to Atlanta's Mercedes-Benz Stadium with her Cowboy Carter Tour.
What we know:
Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter quietly announced her 2025 country tour via social media, posting a caption-less video of a sign that said "Cowboy Carter Tour," and a simple portrait of herself wearing ash-blonde box braids and bright red lipstick at midnight Sunday.
This was likely her Jan. 14 announcement that was postponed due to the Los Angeles wildfires devastating Southern California at the top of the year.
The news also comes after her 13-minute Christmas halftime performance at the Texans-Ravens game that reportedly streamed live on Netflix to over 27 million U.S. viewers.
On Monday, the Grammy Award-winning pop star revealed the full line-up of European and American dates for the tour.
The tour will begin on April 28 in Los Angeles before heading across the country and over the ocean.
Atlanta will be the final stop on the "II Most Wanted" singer's agenda. She'll play two nights at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on July 10 and 11.

The singer has received a lot of flack for producing a country album and has vocalized the hate she's gotten from others in the genre.
"Because of that experience, I did a deeper dive into the history of country music and studied our rich musical archive. It feels good to see how music can unite so many people around the world, while also amplifying the voice of some of the people who have dedicated so much of their lives educating on our musical history," the artist posted on Instagram on March 19, 2024.
Cowboy Carter was nominated for the following awards:
- Grammy Award for Album of the Year 2025
