Beyoncé Struggles to Sell Out London Show Tickets_ Turns to Low-Income Families For Help

  • Beyoncé, a 43-year-old global superstar, kicked off her Cowboy Carter tour at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on June 5 but has failed to sell out any of her six shows.
  • The tour's high ticket prices, including VIP packages up to £950, along with a crowded summer music calendar, contributed to unsold seats and prompted organizers to review prices.
  • To avoid empty sections, Beyoncé reportedly distributed free tickets through London food banks to low-income families, continuing a practice also seen on her 2018 tour with Jay-Z.

  • The ticket giveaways suggest efforts to maintain audience numbers amid sales struggles and indicate possible ongoing price adjustments ahead of the remaining four London shows.
