Beyoncé announced the dates for her highly-anticipated “Renaissance” world tour on Wednesday, which includes a stop at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Aug. 11, according to the singer’s website.

Fans must register in advance to purchase tickets. However, registration does not guarantee tickets. A lottery process will determine eligible buyers. There are three registration options that are grouped by select cities. Atlanta fans are included in Group A and can register now through tomorrow at 11:59 p.m. The general public can register via Ticketmaster’s Verified Fan program.

The 41-year-old songstress will kick off her 47-city tour in Stockholm, Sweden, in May and end in New Orleans in September. The U.S. leg of the tour starts in Philadelphia on July 12.

Beyoncé last performed in Atlanta in 2018 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium as a co-headliner with Jay-Z for the On the Run II Tour. The Renaissance World tour is her first one as a solo headliner since 2016′s Formation World Tour in support of her sixth studio album “Lemonade”.

Last month, Beyoncé performed a private show for the grand opening of the Atlantis the Royal Hotel in Dubai, though she did not perform any songs from “Renaissance”. It was her first live performance since a tribute for Kobe and Gianna Bryant in 2020.

“Renaissance,” the singer’s seventh solo studio album, was released on July 29. She revealed that the album is the first act in a three-part series. Atlanta-based artists Tricky Stewart, The-Dream and Nova Wav are among the credited producers and songwriters featured on the 16-track LP. The album is nominated for eight Grammy awards at this year’s ceremony, which airs on Sunday, Feb. 5, including album of the year and best dance/electronic album.
