Beyoncé announces 2023 tour dates - but major cities are missing from line-up

Beyoncé has finally announced her full list of dates for her much-anticipated Renaissance world tour - but she could spark some upset from fans by missing out some major cities from the line-up.

The legendary songstress, 41, will be kicking off her first tour in seven years in Europe by travelling to Stockholm on May 10 and then Brussels before making her way to the UK.

Her first stop in the UK will be Cardiff's Principality Stadium on May 17, from where she'll travel to Edinburgh's BT Murray Field Stadium on May 20. Three days later, the BREAK MY SOUL singer will perform at Sunderland's Stadium of Light before jetting across the Channel to Paris' Stade de France on May 26.

She'll be back in the UK on May 29 and 30, during which she'll be performing at Tottenham Hotspur's stadium in London.

Sadly, Manchester, Liverpool and Newcastle will be missing out on welcoming Beyonce to their cities.

Beyoncé will go on to perform in Barcelona, Marseille, Cologne, Amsterdam, Hamberg, Frankfurt and Warsaw throughout June.

Her North America tour will begin on July 8 in Toronto and ends on September 27 in New Orleans.

So far, Beyonce is said to have set out a strict set of rules for any staff on her upcoming world tour, not only implementing a strict no alcohol or drugs policy but also carrying out checks to make sure everyone from her dancers to roadies passes a '#MeToo' test.

It comes after Beyonce performed live for the first time in three years at a "once in a lifetime show" show in Dubai last month.

However, her gig also sparked criticism from some after it was reported she earned an eye-watering $24 million (£19.3 million) for the show, despite the fact that LGBTQ+ people in Dubai face several legal challenges as homosexuality is illegal under Sharia law in the United Arab Emirates.

David Beckham was hit with similar criticism last year at landing a £150million ambassador role at the Qatar World Cup despite concerns regarding workers' rights and LGBTQ+ rights in the country.
