The Wearside date is part of Beyonce's Formation Tour.

The singer will open the European leg of her global tour at the Stadium of Light on Tuesday, June 28, with only a very limited number of tickets remaining online and at the Stadium of Light Ticket Office.

The Formation World Tour concert will be Beyoncé’s first world tour since her Mrs. Carter Show World Tour in 2013, which was a sell out across five continents.

The queue outside Sunderland's Stadium of Light earlier on today.

Bosses at the Stadium of Light say fans can ensure that they get to see the must-see show at the venue as a very limited number of hospitality packages remain available, which guarantee a prime concert ticket.

Hospitality prices start from just Â£183.50 per person plus VAT, including a reserved seat ticket.

SAFC’s commercial director, Gary Hutchinson, said: “There is a huge amount of excitement and interest around this concert, which has been reflected in the unprecedented demand for tickets this morning.

“With only a limited amount of tickets remaining now on sale, we would advise fans to book their tickets as soon as they can as this is set to be a must-see show.”
