& A Four- Night Residence At Encore At Wynn Las Vegas
* * * * *
Pop culture superstar Beyoncé is bringing her 2009 "I AM..." World Tour to North America this summer with a series of full-length concerts launching at New York's Madison Square Garden in June and winding down with a four-night residence at Encore at Wynn Las Vegas July 30-August 2 (please see full itinerary following).
Tickets for Beyoncé's North American concerts will be available as a pre-sale for members of Beyoncé’s Fan Club on Monday, April 20, starting at 10:00 AM local venue time. Tickets will go on sale to the general public through Ticketmaster (Ticketmaster.com/Beyonce) on Saturday, April 25, starting at 10:00 AM local venue time. In order to make her concerts affordable to all her fans, Beyoncé is making 2000 seats available at each venue for $20 (plus applicable service charges).
Tickets for the four-night residence at Encore at Wynn Las Vegas will go on sale at a later date.
Information will be available at www.encorelasvegas.com
Beyoncé is co-sponsoring food drives along her tour itinerary as part of the Show Your Helping HandTM initiative, a national hunger relief campaign created by General Mills’ Hamburger Helper® in partnership with Beyoncé and her Survivor Foundation. The campaign goal is to help Feeding America deliver more than 3.5 million meals to local food banks. Consumers can get involved in the effort by submitting codes on specially marked boxes of Hamburger Helper®, by donating non-perishable food items at Beyoncé’s concerts in select cities across the U.S., or by donating money at www.showyourhelpinghand.com. Beginning April 25, visit www.showyourhelpinghand.com for more information.
The most heavily-anticipated concert event of 2009, Beyoncé's "I AM…" world tour occasions the artist's first full-length concerts since 2007's sold-out "The Beyoncé Experience" shows. Beyoncé's current tour premieres live performances of songs from I AM...SASHA FIERCE, her latest international #1 chart-topping album.
Thierry Mugler, world-renowned designer, is working as creative advisor and costume designer on Beyoncé's "I AM…" world tour. He has designed 71 new costumes for the event, highlighted by his bold signature look.
The "I AM..." world tour production showcases the music and film superstar like you've never seen her before. Beyoncé's extraordinary all-female band will join her again to perform musical hits, classics, and surprises in a newly-created high-tech state-of-the-art concert environment. Winners of Beyoncé's "Single Ladies" Video Dance contest will see themselves on-screen during one of the centerpiece sections of the "I AM..." extravaganza.
L'Oréal Paris, one of the co-sponsors of Beyoncé's "I AM..." North American Tour, is celebrating 100 years of legendary beauty with the iconic superstar. Concertgoers will be invited into the L'Oréal Paris Glam Station where the LP Pro Team will provide mini makeovers and touch-ups. Then, fans will walk out onto the red carpet in front of the L'Oreal Paris Infallible Step and Repeat banner for a VIP photo session and reception of VIP L'Oreal Paris lanyard credentials.
Concertgoers can enter the L'Oreal Paris 100th Anniversary Legendary Beauty Sweepstakes to for a chance to win the grand prize, a fabulous 5 day/4 night trip for two to Paris including a beauty makeover. They could also win one of L’Oréal’s 100 anniversary gift baskets which include L’Oreal Paris products.
The Beyoncé "I AM..." North American Concert Tour is co-sponsored by L'Oreal Paris and General Mills and produced by Live Nation and Music World Entertainment.

go to Beyonce.com and click the Fanclub tab
Being a member of the site is not enough,
You purchase a 1 year membership for $19.99
That's when you know you are a part of it,
I had to click on it a few times before it actually took me to the site to purchase a membership..
and then it will give you your ticketmaster presale code to purchase tickets with on 4/20!
BUT HOW MUCH ARE THE PACKAGES!!!
