Beyoncé opened her Renaissance World Tour in Stockholm in May 2023.
The tour began at Friends Arena in Stockholm, Sweden, on May 10, 2023. It supported Renaissance, Beyoncé's seventh studio album, which had been released in 2022. The album's dance-oriented sound drew heavily from house, disco, funk, and ballroom traditions.
The tour was Beyoncé's first solo concert tour since The Formation World Tour in 2016. Its production used a large stage, extensive lighting, moving platforms, and futuristic visual elements. The set list combined Renaissance songs with material from earlier albums, allowing the show to function as both a new-album presentation and a career-spanning concert.
The Renaissance World Tour continued through Europe and North America before concluding in Kansas City, Missouri, on October 1, 2023. Stockholm is sometimes mistaken for the tour's first North American city, but the opening date was in Sweden.
