Beyonce fans are now up a height with excitement at there being just days to go until the music icon's show in Sunderland And those heading to the Stadium of Light on Tuesday need to be aware of a few rules for entry into the Renaissance tour.
There was near hysteria earlier this year when Queen B announced that she'd be touring her new album, with fans having gone wild for the release of Break My Soul last year. Since then other cuts from Renaissance, like Alien Superstar and Cuff It have been on permanent rotation for many people as the UK leg of Beyonce's tour drew closer and closer.
She kicked off the Renaissance shows in Sweden last week, before UK fans got their first taste of the action in Cardiff on May 17 and, on Tuesday, May 23, it will be the turn of Sunderland to welcome the music megastar, with tens of thousands of fans expected to pack of the Stadium of Light.
Beyonce's Renaissance tour setlist was made public last week, with a few eyebrows being raised at the fact that Single Ladies, Halo and If I Were A Boy weren't on it. But, with it containing a massive 40 songs, there is sure to be at least one song that will get everyone going.
There are some tickets still left for Beyonce in Sunderland on Ticketmaster, with standing, seats and Gold Circle all still available.
