From the reading: The Summer Sound: Europe's Biggest Concerts of 2026
Beyoncé has already sold out seven European stadium dates for her 2026 world tour, and tickets disappeared within minutes of going on sale. In Madrid, fans queued outside Estadio Santiago Bernabéu from 4 a.m. the night before. In London, the Wembley Stadium website crashed twice before a single seat was confirmed. The live music industry has not seen demand like this since the Rolling Stones toured in the 1990s.
