Ticket sales in the UK for Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter Tour have been notably slow, with many still available across the six-show run in London.
Beyoncé is set to perform six dates at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London in June. Tickets went on sale over the weekend via Ticketmaster and the stadium’s website. But many fans are displeased with the tickets’ steep prices, and a large amount of seats are still available at a range of prices.
With tickets ranging from £71 (~$90) to £950 (~$1,197) in different sections of the venue, some fans took to social media to express their displeasure. “Those wanting to stand to see Beyoncé in London in June, [it’s] going to set you back £224.85,” wrote one user on X. “Dynamic pricing or not… wow. Count me out.”
Standing room only tickets are still available for around £225 ($283) for the June 5 performance, while seats for the same show in the so-called nosebleed section run about £121 ($152). Some fans claimed Ticketmaster’s UK site crashed during the presales, but a spokesperson for the company says this is not the case.
Besides London, the only other European dates thus far will be in Paris, where Beyoncé will play three shows at the Stade de France on June 19, 21, and 22. But fans in France have had their own share of issues trying to secure tickets, with some complaining of invalid links. “First, ‘emails are not registered’; then ‘the presale is for fans,’ like WTF? And now, the URLs that YOU sent after WE registered on YOUR site are invalid. Fantastic!” one fan sarcastically opined.
Beyoncé announced the highly anticipated Cowboy Carter tour earlier this month following her Christmas Day NFL performance. The dates were postponed due to the wildfires rampaging across the Los Angeles area last month, leading to Queen Bey launching the dates after her record-breaking success at the 67th Grammy Awards.
