Beyoncé continued her record-breaking streak during the recent France leg of her historic Cowboy Carter Tour.

The superstar collected a trio of records from her three-night stand at Stade de France in Paris, which included guest appearances from Miley Cyrus, JAY-Z, Les Twins and The Mayyas.

The 19, 21 and 22 June stint generated over $39.7 million (€34.4m), becoming the highest-grossing engagement in the stadium’s history.

Each night pulled in over $13.2m (€11.4m), setting another record for the stadium’s highest-grossing single concert. And, with more than 215,000 tickets sold, Beyoncé is now the top-selling female artist at Stade de France.

The Paris residency concludes the European leg of the Cowboy Carter Tour, which also saw her break records at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the UK.

Beyoncé drew over 275,000 fans to six concerts on 5, 7, 10, 12, 14, and 16 June at the North London stadium, grossing over £45m ($61.5m). This engagement shattered the stadium’s records for the most tickets sold and for the highest gross of any artist.

The 43-year-old also surpassed the benchmark she previously set with five sold-out nights during her Renaissance World Tour in 2023, breaking her own all-time record for most performances by any artist at the venue.

Prior to the London shows, the superstar rewrote the record books at New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium on 22, 24, 25, 28 and 29 May. She broke the all-time records for the most concerts performed by a single artist (12), most shows on a single tour (5), highest ticket sales on a single run (250,000) and highest grossing shows on a single run and of all-time ($70m).

The Cowboy Carter Tour launched on 28 April at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles with a five-night stand, which earned Beyoncé the record for most overall performances at the stadium by any artist.

The Los Angeles residency sold 217,000 tickets and grossed $55.7 million, making it the biggest reported single-venue engagement by a woman in Billboard Boxscore history. On average, Beyoncé grossed $11.1 million per night, playing to more than 43,000 fans at each show.

The Cowboy Carter Tour will now head back to North America for a second leg starting on 28 June in Beyoncé’s hometown of Houston, Texas.

Total attendance at the 32-date outing is set to eclipse one million, according to promoter Live Nation. By Billboard‘s estimations, Beyoncé’s 2025 run is barreling toward $300 million, which would out-gross all of her previous tours except 2023’s Renaissance World Tour.

Renaissance World Tour, which ran for 56 shows compared to Cowboy Carter Tour’s current routing of 32, was the second highest-grossing tour of 2023 after Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour.
