Beyoncé is still struggling to sell hundreds of tickets ahead of her first UK Cowboy Carter show at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium tonight
The singer, 43, is playing six nights in London this summer on June 5, 7, 10, 12, 14 and 16 – with the first kicking off this evening.
But at the time of writing on Thursday there are still 539 free seats left in the stadium which holds around 62,000 people for concerts.
Currently the cheapest seats available for tonight are £71 for obstructed view seats while the most expensive are £278 for seated in better areas.
It comes in sharp contrast to ticket sales for her Renaissance world tour in 2023 where UK shows sold out within minutes of being released.
Her UK stint comes after ticket sales for the US part of her tour were also sluggish.
The ticket sales may reflect less interest in her country-tinged Cowboy Carter material compared to her dance-friendly Renaissance material.
The singer–songwriter also may be struggling to get fans who saw her on her whirlwind Renaissance tour to come back just two years later, this time at even higher prices.
Those prices – $200–$300 a ticket for some of the worst seats at her upcoming Chicago shows – may be also turning off fans.
Over the past few months Beyoncé appeared to have drastically slashed prices at some of her shows in order to get fans to buy the unsold tickets.
Some fans who saw her in LA were able to nab tickets as cheap as $35 before Ticketmaster’s fees.
In addition it has been a difficult time for Beyonce and her husband Jay-Z in the last year.
The rapper, real name Shawn Carter, was falsely accused of raping a 13-year-old girl at a 2000 MTV Video Music Awards party alongside Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs in a lawsuit that was filed in December last year.
The unnamed accuser then voluntarily dismissed the case and Carter, 55, has now sued his accuser’s attorney Tony Buzbee, who filed the allegations.
The 99 Problems hitmaker no longer faces legal action.
The Houston-born superstar and her husband Jay-Z became music’s first billionaire couple and are now worth around $3billion.
