She’s called the Queen for a reason. 

After wrapping the European leg of her Renaissance tour on Wednesday, Billboard reports Beyoncé has brought in some history-making numbers. The 32-time Grammy winner grossed $154.4 million and sold more than 1 million tickets across 21 shows.

Not only do the numbers top the European legs of BeyoncĂ©’s 2016 Formation Tour and 2018’s On the Run II Tour, which was co-headlined with Jay-Z, the first nine shows of the Renaissance trek made her the top-grossing act of May, per Billboard.

With the U.S. and Canada portions of the tour, which kicks off on July 8 and 9 in Toronto, Billboard predicts that if the numbers hold steady, the North American leg would sell 1.8 million tickets and gross $264 million. That leg, on its own, would surpass the global total of the Formation Tour and become the biggest of BeyoncĂ©’s career.

The Renaissance World Tour continues with 36 shows, including stops in Philadelphia, Chicago, Atlanta and Miami, before its final stop in New Orleans on September 27.
