A pre-concert tailgate party was hosted before Beyoncé performed on Sunday at the MetLife Stadium

According to USA Today, a pre-concert tailgate party was hosted on May 24 by Kureé Sheard, who is known for creating the viral Cowboy Carter-inspired sashes. The event featured music, games, food, and giveaways, offering concertgoers a festive lead-up to the show.

This marked Kureé's first time organizing a tailgate party before a Beyoncé concert. She said:

"It's really twofold. We wanted to do this because we wanted to just give back to our community who have supported us throughout this entire process of going mega-viral with these sashes."

Fans also reportedly purchased several accessories at the tailgate party. This was Beyoncé's second performance in East Rutherford, where she is scheduled to perform on five dates at the MetLife Stadium: May 22, May 24, May 25, May 28, and May 29.

Beyoncé is set to cover several cities across the US, including Landover, Houston, Paradise, and Atlanta. Additionally, she is scheduled to perform in European countries, including France and England. The tour began on April 28, 2025, with the first show scheduled in Inglewood. The final show will take place on July 26 in Paradise.

Selena Gomez wasn't the only celebrity in attendance. Celebrities like Oprah, Gayle King, Victoria Monét, Lizzo, and Sheryl Lee Ralph were also present when the tour kickstarted last month.

Beyoncé's family, including her mother Tina Knowles, sister Solange, and nephew Julez Smith, were also seen in the audience supporting her. Selena previously attended the Renaissance World Tour in May 2023 at the Stade de France in Paris.
