Beyoncé, 43, has performed the song during her record-breaking shows at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in North London.
She posted pictures on Instagram and wrote: 'Thank you, Sir Paul McCartney, for writing one of the best songs ever made. Every time I sing it I feel so honored.
'And it is a full circle moment to wear your beautiful daughter's design.
'Thank you, London, for creating unforgettable memories for me and my family. Holla at 'ya when I come on tour again!'
Blackbird featured on the White Album and has a special poignancy for Beyoncé.
It was written as a protest song against inequality in the US in the 1960s, when The Beatles refused to perform for a segregated audience.
Beyoncé's cover — spelt Blackbiird — features on her Cowboy Carter album.
After its release, Macca said: 'I think she does a magnificent version of it and it reinforces the civil rights message that inspired me to write the song in the first place.'
Beyoncé sold more than 275,000 tickets across her six nights in London, with her gigs grossing more than £45million.
She now holds the record for the most performances by any artist at the stadium, following five sold-out shows there in 2023 during her Renaissance Tour.

Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 3 Myleene Klass poses in a polka dot bikini on holiday Credit: Instagram 3 Radio host Myleene posted snaps from her break in Italy Credit: Instagram 3 Her cossie and matching bandana were from her latest Freemans collection Credit: Instagram Her cossie and matching bandana were from her latest collection with Freemans, who she is a brand ambassador for. Earlier this year Myleene revealed what really gets her in the mood during an appearance on Loose Women. Referencing Brooke Shields' autobiography, in which she details her thoughts on sex as a 59-year-old woman, Jane Moore put the same question to her fellow panelists. Myleene, who shares five-year-old daughter Ava with her husband Graham Quinn, revealed what gets her turned on now she's a busy mum. The model explained that when it comes to getting in the mood for women, it's a' slow burn'. "I think all these ideas of tequila and setting the mood and music, it's not about those five minutes, it's about the whole day," she said. "It's about the cup of tea, it's about kindness, put a shelf up and things are going to look way more promising for the evening." Myleene went on to say that being proactive about tasks in the home and looking after your partner and family is her idea of "foreplay." "It's not just what goes on in the bedroom, it's actually what goes on in your relationship." And while she acknowledged that society doesn't find this idea as "enticing," she said that putting time and effort into a relationship is the biggest turn on.
