Beyoncé Launches 'Cowboy Carter' Tour with Blue Ivy, Rumi in LA

Beyoncé launched her Cowboy Carter Tour at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on April 28, 2025, marking the start of a 32-date run across the U.S. and Europe. The opening night featured special appearances by her daughters Blue Ivy, who danced during 'America Has a Problem,' and Rumi, who made her stage debut during 'Protector,' delighting fans with their family moments. Despite the heartfelt performances and Beyoncé's recent Grammy wins for Cowboy Carter, the tour has faced slower-than-expected ticket sales, with many seats still unsold shortly before showtime. The setlist included highlights from the new album as well as classic hits, creating an emotional and celebratory atmosphere. Fans and celebrities, including Vanessa Bryant, attended the show and shared enthusiastic reactions online. Beyoncé expressed gratitude to her fans for supporting her creative evolution and acknowledged those who paved the way for her success.
