Beyoncé looks set to hit the road in the UK again next year, if recent rumours are anything to go by.

The superstar singer thrilled fans on her Renaissance World Tour last year, playing 56 shows, including five sold-out gigs at London's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Across the five shows, a staggering 238,000 supporters attended, and those lucky fans enjoyed a nearly three-hour performance from the pop megastar.

Insiders in the US recently told The Sun newspaper that Beyoncé is planning a return to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for another five dates in 2025, and this could result in the star visiting other cities across Europe to celebrate her recent number one album, Cowboy Carter. 

A music source told the publication: "Beyoncé is about to raise the roof. The demand for tickets is expected to rival that of Oasis, with fans rushing to secure a seat. 2025 is going to be an incredible year for live music."

Beyoncé performed at five London shows and three more UK gigs in Sunderland, Edinburgh, and Cardiff, and her Renaissance Tour is believed to have contributed a staggering £8 billion to the economy.

Aside from London, where else in the UK and Europe could she perform next year?

Bey's Cardiff Comeback

If Beyoncé does go on to announce a series of UK dates next year, then she is likely to head back to Cardiff, the Welsh capital city.

Wales' Principality Stadium was the first UK venue she performed at during her Renaissance World Tour last year, and she is just 1/2 for a Cardiff comeback in 2025. What's more, Beyoncé clearly has an affinity with the north-east English port city of Sunderland. She played there in 2016 on her Formation World Tour and returned in May 2023 for her latest run of gigs.

It's 8/13 that Beyoncé heads back to Sunderland's Stadium of Light next year, while she is 5/4 to perform in Scottish capital Edinburgh, as she did a few days before her Sunderland gig in 2023.

While Beyoncé played in Edinburgh, she missed out on fellow Scottish city Glasgow (13/8), but she did stop off there in 2016, but not Edinburgh, during her Formation World Tour. Beyoncé also visited Manchester and Dublin on that run of shows eight years ago, and it is 11/8 and 6/4, respectively, that she returns to the two cities next year. 

Amsterdam Stop Off Looks Likely

If Beyoncé heads out of the UK and explores some more European cities, then there is one the pop star is sure to rock up at: Amsterdam.

The Texas Hold 'Em hitmaker clearly enjoys playing in the Netherlands city (Evens), after she took to the stage twice at the Johan Cruyff Arena in June 2023.

Aside from London and Amsterdam, the only other time she played more than once in a European city on her Renaissance World Tour was in Warsaw, Poland, and she is 3/1 to head back there next year. It's also Evens for Beyoncé to return to the Spanish city of Barcelona, where she played on both tours, and she is 2/1 to head back to Stockholm.

The Swedish city holds a special place in the star's heart after she kicked off her Renaissance World Tour there in May 2023 with two gigs. If she does head back to Stockholm, then Swedish economists should prepare for a rise in inflation. The country reported a higher-than-expected inflation of 9.7 percent in May 2023, and when looking for reasons why, some pointed towards the superstar singer's pair of shows. This was due to increased demand for hotel and restaurant bookings, which led to companies upping prices.

Economist Michael Grahn told the BBC: "I wouldn't... blame Beyoncé for [the] high inflation print, but her performance and global demand to see her perform in Sweden apparently added a little to it." 

The star also played Brussels (5/2) on both world tours, so the Belgian capital is likely to be on her wish list once again. Other European cities that could get the Beyoncé treatment include Milan (4/1), German 5/1 pair Hamburg and Cologne—both of which she visited on her Renaissance World Tour—and France's Saint-Denis (6/1), which she played on both world tours.

Beyhive's Ticket Odds

But what are the chances that Beyoncé's loyal fanbase, known as the BeyHive, can get their hands on tickets to her potential new tour?

According to the star's 2023 Renaissance World Tour, 2.78 million fans watched the 16 Carriages hitmaker perform across 56 dates from May to October last year, an average of 49,642 people per show.

The epic run of gigs made $579 million from the tickets sold, meaning it was the highest-grossing tour in history by a Black artist. And in 2016, 2.24 million fans watched Beyoncé's Formation World Tour over 49 shows, which averaged out at 45,714 per show.

In February 2023, ahead of the first tickets for the North American leg of Beyoncé's Renaissance Tour going on sale, Ticketmaster explained in advance how its system would work, which included a new idea to divide cities into three groups. But the ticketing giant also warned fans that most would likely miss out because of the huge demand.

An update on the Ticketmaster blog read: "Fan demand exceeds the number of tickets available by more than 800% based on the registration numbers in the Group A cities. It is expected that many interested fans may not be able to get tickets because demand drastically exceeds supply."

This was just a 0.13 percent, or 800/1, chance of landing tickets for the Group A cities: Atlanta, Chicago, Houston, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, New York, Toronto, Vancouver, and Washington. What's more, when Oasis tickets went on sale for their first tour in 15 years, more than 10 million people tried to buy tickets for the initial 17 shows, for which there were around 1.4 million tickets available at an average of 82,352 per show.

While on the face of it, this appears to have given fans just over a 7/1 chance of landing tickets; this number is very much skewed due to the fact there were pre-sales, ballot codes, crashing websites, online queues lasting half a day, and the extreme demand to contend with. And, of course, the fact that most people would've purchased more than one ticket per transaction, with four being the maximum allowed per household for each show.

If Beyoncé does confirm a UK and Europe 2025 tour and the dates are similar to the 2023 Renaissance World Tour and her 2016 Formation World Tour, then there could be an average of around 50,000 tickets for each venue. 

That is far less than Oasis' per-show average, meaning it will be even trickier to obtain tickets. By our calculations, fans should have around a 3.8 percent chance (25/1) of buying pre-sale tickets, but their hopes fall dramatically if they miss out initially.

Depending on how many shows Beyoncé announces, where they are, how much they will cost, how many tickets are available for the general public, and what the demand is like, there could be around a 1.5 percent chance (66/1) of general sale tickets. Good luck, Beyhivers!
