This is the first time the power couple will be touring together in an official capacity. The “On The Run” name is a reference to “Part II (On The Run),” a song they collaborated on for Jay Z’s most recent studio album Magna Carta Holy Grail.
A ticket pre-sale will take place tomorrow, April 29 for those who sign up for Beyoncé’s newsletter. A general sale is expected to occur on Friday.
Beyoncé and Jay Z have had numerous collaborations since 2002’s “03 Bonnie & Clyde.” Their most recent was “Drunk In Love” for Beyoncé’s self-titled studio album which dropped in December. The couple have performed the song live together a handful of times, including once at Beyoncé’s “Mrs. Carter Show” in London last month:
It’s safe to assume that the On The Run tour will include songs outside of their collaborations.
