As if we didn’t know, Beyonce is a powerhouse … but we have the receipts to prove it.
The first leg of her four-leg tour which saw Bey make her way through North America and Canada grossed $123 million and attracted more than 970,000 fans to 23 sold out dates based on box office counts submitted during the past week by concert promoter Live Nation.
On August 3, Beyoncé will complete the second leg of her tour, a five-week stint through Europe, before heading back to the States for the third part of the Formation tour and sweep through nine U.S. cities. The first performance will be held in the metropolitan New York/New Jersey area on Sept. 7 with a show booked at MetLife Stadium.
