Beyoncé has done it again. As reported by Billboard, the global icon’s COWBOY CARTER tour officially ranked as the highest grossing tour of 2025 by a solo artist, further confirming her status as one of the most powerful forces in live music. The tour, started in support of her genre crossing album Cowboy Carter, grossed over $400 million across a strictly selected run of just 32 stadium shows. With roughly 1.6 million tickets sold, Beyoncé proved that she doesn’t need an extra tour schedule to control the box office demand alone does the work.
Running from April through July 2025, the COWBOY CARTER tour traveled around North America and Europe, offering a high concept experience that combined country influences, Black Southern roots, and Beyoncé’s signature flawless performance style. Each show was both a musical statement and a cultural moment, drawing huge crowds and constantly selling out big venues.
What makes this success even more impressive is the background. 2025 was a tough year for touring, with many superstar on the road. Yet no other solo artist surpassed Beyoncé’s total revenue. Her tour also set multiple Boxscore records, including becoming the highest grossing country influenced tour in history, a notable achievement given the album’s challenge to traditional genre limits.
While major bands topped overall touring charts thanks to longer global runs, Beyoncé’s COWBOY CARTER tour stood apart for its Effectively, reach, and impact. Fewer dates, bigger numbers a formula only a superstar of her level can pull off.
Beyond the financial success, the tour confirmed Beyoncé’s ability to change genres, reshape touring economics, and set new industry standards more than two decades into her career. COWBOY CARTER wasn’t just a tour it was a statement. As the music industry looks ahead, one thing is clear: when Beyoncé hits the road, history follows.
