Tickets for the Beyonce’s UK leg of her Mrs. Carter Show world tour have officially sold out just 12 minutes after going on sale as over one million fans tried to get tickets for the 11-date run.
Although some fans tried desperately to get tickets for tickets as they went on sale at 9.30am this morning (Saturday), many were left disappointed as various ticketing websites struggled to keep up with the high demand.
One of the busiest ticket websites, Ticketmaster, took to Twitter to reveal they had no more Beyonce tickets available at 9.43am.
Ticketmaster UK wrote: “And we’re out - All dates for @Beyonce now sold out. Very few tickets were made available for today’s general sale after busy presales”.

Beyonce is set to play 11 UK dates in April and May this year after the star added further live shows after experiencing such high demand for tickets. She will now embark on a totally sold out The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour which will be her first world tour since 2009’s I AM....WORLD TOUR.
