Beyonce Announces ‘The Formation’ World Tour
by Staff Editor
Immediately following Beyoncé’s incredible Super Bowl 50 halftime show performance alongside Coldplay and Bruno Mars, the queen has announced an upcoming world tour deemed “The Formation.” We don’t have too many details on the show as of yet in terms of when it will start, where it will stop, and if and when we’ll get a new album with it.
Right after the performance, a commercial appeared showing, “THE FORMATION WORLD TOUR. Beyonce. 2016.” Beyonce just released her new single “Formation” a day ago, so we expect announcements of a new album to soon follow.
According to Live Nation, Beyonce’s new tour will help support the tragedy taking place in Flint, MI by giving fans an opportunity to help support. Here’s a statement from the press release:
True to her life’s work of always giving back, fans will be given the opportunity to participate in Beyoncé’s #BeyGOOD initiative supporting local United Way programs and the continued work surrounding the water crisis in Flint, Michigan. United Way of Genesee County has been at the forefront of distributing thousands of filtration pitchers, faucet mount filters, replacement cartridges and truckloads of water to underserved populations to address immediate needs in Flint Michigan. They are also partnering with the Community Foundation of Greater Flint to create a fund that will address long-term developmental, education, nutrition and health needs of the children affected by the Flint Water Crisis.
