Beyoncé is gearing up to embark on the highly anticipated Cowboy Carter Tour. The music icon took to Instagram to make the official announcement, revealing her plans to showcase her eighth studio album, Cowboy Carter, in live performances later this year.
This announcement follows her recent collaboration with the NFL and Netflix for the groundbreaking Beyoncé Bowl halftime show. While the superstar’s initial social media announcement was succinct—featuring only the caption “COWBOY CARTER TOUR 2025″—it has already generated significant buzz among fans. Netflix joined the conversation with their own post, sharing a clip from the halftime show alongside the caption, “Tonight seems like the perfect night to rewatch Beyoncé Bowl on Netflix.”
As of now, Beyoncé has not disclosed specific tour dates or venues. The timeline for releasing these crucial details remains uncertain.
The tour revelation came strategically timed—less than 24 hours before the 67th Annual Grammy Awards ceremony tonight (Feb. 02, 2025). The artist heads into the prestigious event with an impressive 11 nominations, including potential wins for album of the year and best country album for Cowboy Carter.
Her breakthrough country single “Texas Hold ‘Em” has earned multiple Grammy nominations—song of the year, record of the year, and best country song. Additional nominations include best country solo performance for “16 Carriages,” best country duo/group performance for “II Most Wanted” featuring Miley Cyrus, and best Americana performance for “Ya Ya.”
Cowboy Carter, which made its debut in March 2024, stands as a landmark achievement for the performer and has illuminated the path for other Black artists in country music. The genre previously presented challenges for Beyoncé, who has openly discussed feeling unwelcome after facing criticism during her initial attempts to break into the country music scene years ago.
