Steven J. Horowitz Senior Music Writer “It’s more than a concert,” says Beyoncé near the beginning of her sprawling concert movie “Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé.” “It’s a culture, it’s a state of mind, it’s a release, it’s a fantasy come true.” For fans who were able to catch the record-breaking Renaissance World Tour before its conclusion in early October, they know that all too well. Throughout the trek, Beyoncé created a community among her admirers — affectionately known as the Beyhive — for a tour that ended up becoming a coup for the superstar, finishing as the highest-grossing tour by a Black artist and the eighth-highest-grossing tour of all time.
In the end, she made $579 million worldwide. It’s easy to see why. Beyoncé handled the production with precision and care, spending a painstaking four years putting together the aural spectacular and battling a knee injury that required surgery in the run-up to the tour’s start.
She describes the tour as a “machine” and goes into detail on how it came to life, from the women in harnesses who built the screens panel by panel to the nurses, editors, tailors, choreographers, catering, and more who ensured it went smoothly. To put it into perspective, she goes into detail about the brick-by-brick process to architect the stages. “In order to perform as many times as we perform, we have three stages,” she says.
