For the third and final evening of Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood on Monday, Sept. 4, Queen Bey partied it up with more than 70,000 of her closest friends to mark her 42nd birthday.
Fans that got there early in the evening were able to score limited edition “Beyoncé’s B-day Party” T-shirts that were being sold for $55 a pop, but patrons were reporting on X (formerly Twitter) that they were selling fast and the merch lines were extremely long. The BeyHive was buzzing early, too, since outlets like “Extra” reported that music legend Diana Ross would be the one to sing “Happy Birthday to You” to Beyoncé.

The R&B star, who, according to Forbes is the highest grossing tour by any female artist or Black artist in history, asked her fans to dress up for her birthday month.
“Virgo season is upon us,” she wrote to her social media followers. “This tour has been such a joy and as we approach the last month, my birthday wish is to celebrate with you wearing your most fabulous silver fashions to the shows August 23-September 22.”
While she’ll undoubtedly still be partying it up as the tour rolls on and finally wraps up in Kansas City, Missouri, on Oct. 1, only the Los Angeles-area fans get to actually wish Beyoncé a very happy birthday.
