It's official, London has Beyoncé fever. Queen Bey arrived in the Big Smoke last week as part of her whistlestop tour of the UK where she's already visited Cardiff, Edinburgh and er… Sunderland. The capital welcomed the pop superstar with open arms: cardboard cut-outs of the singer have been spotted at pubs across north London, and even Beavertown renamed some of its beers after her. 

Bey is in the midst of a mega five-night run of the Renaissance World Tour at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, which concludes on Sunday night. If you were lucky enough to score tickets to the gig of the century, here’s everything you need to know. 

What time will Beyoncé go on stage? 

The doors to Tottenham Stadium open at 5pm. There isn’t an official start time for the concert, but according to reports from her previous shows Beyoncé has been taking to the stage in Tottenham between 7.30pm-8.15pm. The Tottenham Stadium curfew is 10.30pm on weekdays and 10pm on Sundays, and the show should last between one and a half and two hours. 

What’s the setlist for Beyoncé’s Renaissance tour? 

Beyoncé has been changing the setlist slightly from show to show, but you can expect it to look something like this:

  1. ‘Dangerously In Love’
  2. ‘Flaws And All’
  3. ‘1+1’
  4. ‘I Care / I’m Goin' Down’ (Mary J. Blige cover)
  5. ‘I’m That Girl’
  6. ‘Cozy’
  7. ‘Alien Superstar’ / ‘Sweet Dreams’ (Medley)
  8. ‘Lift Off’ (from Jay-Z and Kanye West’s ‘Watch The Throne’)
  9. ‘7/11’ (Interlude)
  10. ‘Cuff It’
  11. ‘Energy’ (ft. Beam)
  12. ‘Break My Soul’
  13. ‘No Angel’
  14. ‘Haunted’
  15. ‘Formation’
  16. ‘Diva’
  17. ‘Run The World (Girls)’
  18. ‘My Power’ (from The Lion King: The Gift)
  19. ‘Black Parade’

  31. ‘Naughty Girl’
  32. ‘Move’ (ft. Grace Jones)
  33. ‘Heated’
  34. ‘Thique’
  35. ‘All Up In Your Mind’
  36. ‘Drunk In Love’
  37. ‘America Has A Problem’
  38. ‘Pure / Honey’
  39. ‘Blow’
  40. ‘Summer Renaissance’

How are the reviews?

It's safe to say Beyoncé has been killing it. Taking her sparkling alien invasion to the stage every night, the BeyHive has not been disappointed, with fans saying they ‘needed 24 hours to process it’ and that she ‘hasn't only raised the bar with this tour – she has obliterated it’.

Grace Beard, Time Out's deputy travel editor, was lucky enough to catch the show last night. She said: ‘How do I summarise seeing the indomitable Beyoncé in the flesh for the first time? From the opening medley of ballads through to the soaring Summer Renaissance finale, I cried, I screamed, and I damn near threw up. The outfits! The Blue Ivy cameo! The voguing!

‘Watching the world's greatest living performer transform a north London football stadium into a glittering, otherworldly celebration of Black queer culture? And during Pride Month? Unreal – even from sky-high nosebleed seats.’

When are her remaining shows in London and the UK? 

Queen Bey has been performing in the capital all week, with her remaining shows at the north London stadium taking place on June 3 and 4. Sadly, those will be the singer’s final UK concerts as she will be jetting off to Barcelona for a performance on June 8. 

Are there any tickets left?

Unsurprisingly, tickets to the Renaissance World Tour sold out in record time, with demand being so high the ‘Cuff It’ singer added three more dates. There are still a few tickets left on Ticketmaster, but before you get your hopes up they are selling for between £100 and £200 and many of the seats have an ‘obstructed view’.
