The Essentials To Know About Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter Tour In London
If you've been following all things related to Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter tour - from Tina Knowles revealing how Rumi begged to join her mum on stage, to Blue providing viral dancing moments on stage and celebrities dressing up for the tour - then you'll know that Beyonce's London leg commenced on June 5. The global star has made her highly anticipated return to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in June to kick of six London shows in the North London stadium as part of her Cowboy Carter World Tour. Between June 5 and 16, over 62,000 fans will see the singer perform her country album for the first time ever in the UK. If you've already got your tickets secured and want to know how you can plan ahead, below we list all that there is to know about performance times, setlists, what to wear, leaving the stadium, who will be opening for Beyoncé and more... then keep reading below. FIND OUT MORE ON ELLE COLLECTIVE Take a closer look at the full breakdown of the Cowboy Carter Tour setlist for the London dates below. Based on Bey's pervious performances, this list gives you a solid idea of what to expect, but keep in mind that every show has its own flair, so the lineup may shift slightly on the night. 'Ameriican Requiem' 'Blackbiird' 'The Star-Spangled Banner' 'Freedom' 'YA YA' / 'Why Don't You Love Me' mashup 'AMERICA HAS A PROBLEM' 'SPAGHETTII' 'Formation' 'MY HOUSE' 'Diva' 'ALLIIGATOR TEARS' 'JUST FOR FUN' 'PROTECTOR' 'FLAMENCO' 'DESERT EAGLE' 'RIIVERDANCE' 'II HANDS II HEAVEN' 'SWEET ★ HONEY ★ BUCKIIN'' / 'Summer Renaissance' / 'Pure/Honey' mashup 'Jolene' 'Daddy Lessons' 'BODYGUARD' 'II MOST WANTED' 'CUFF IT' 'TYRANT' 'THIQUE' 'LEVII'S JEANS' 'DAUGHTER' 'I'M THAT GIRL' 'COZY' 'ALIEN SUPERSTAR' 'TEXAS HOLD 'EM' 'Crazy in Love' 'HEATED' 'Before I Let Go' '16 CARRIAGES' 'AMEN' Given that the album country themed, western wear is the dress code for the Cowboy Carter tour. From double denim, to cowboy boots, hats, shorts and gold and silver jewellery, the options of what to wear are endless. Before you can sing your way through the stellar setlist, you'll need to plan how you're getting to the venue. Although Tottenham Hotspur stadium has advised visitors not to drive, there are plenty of other transport options to choose from. Heading to the stadium from central London? The nearest tube stations to the venue are Seven Sisters and Tottenham Hale, both about a 30-minute walk away. Conveniently, both are on the Victoria Line, so they are easily accessible from Oxford Circus, Kings Cross, and Euston stations. Several TFL bus services, including the W3, 149, 259, 279, and 349, stop at or near the venue. However, the stadium advises that on concert days, these routes may experience minor diversions due to road closures for the event. Need to reach the venue from East London? White Hart Lane on the Weaver Overground line is the nearest station to the Station, offering a direct connection from Liverpool Street. See more information from the Tottenham Hotspur stadium at the link here. The stadium doors open at 5 pm, with Beyoncé's anticipated to take the stage around 7.30 pm. However, based on her previous Cowboy Carter shows, she often begins her performance closer to 8.15 pm. Whilst nothing has yet been confirmed, given that Beyoncé hasn't had an opening act for her tour so far, there's no indication that this would change in London. However, rumour has it that Sir Paul McCartney may join Beyoncé on stage for her rendition of the Beatles song 'Blackbird', as well as support from her DJ. Tottenham Hotspur Stadium has a restricted bag policy and requires all bags to be less than A4 in size (21cm long x 30cm high). Everyone knows that one of the best parts of going to a concert, is the pre-show itself. From getting ready with your friends, while blasting all of songs ahead of the gig, there's nothing quite like it. Whether you've already got a dedicated Cowboy Carter playlist or are still adding the finishing touches to your carefully curated playlist, Spotify are here to enhance that experience. The music streaming platform have created a limited-edition collection of playlist cover art stickers that you can add to your playlist throughout the tour. With designs that include cowboy boots, a Cowboy Carter sash and a 'TEXAS HOLD 'EM' license plate, you can easily access these by clicking the 'Create Cover Art' tool.
