The Citi pre-sale for the new date begins at noon on Wednesday at livenation.com.

Bey and her husband are following up on their hugely successful On the Run 2014 joint tour, which grossed nearly $100 million and spawned an HBO special.

Beyonce’s most recent album was the 2017 “Lemonade.” Like Jay-Z’s “4:44” that year, it was Grammy-nominated for album of the year.

The tour kicks off June 6 in the UK with 15 dates across the European continent before heading to the U.S. for 21 scheduled dates.
