How we watched Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter tour without tickets

The Beehive is giving fans a seat for Beyoncé's tour — no ticket needed, just a screen.

The big picture: People are watching Cowboy Carter from home through social media livestreams of fans at the concert.

💭 Analis' thought bubble: I watched the almost three-hour show across at least 10 livestreams on opening night. When one ended, I hopped to another until the show was complete.

To watch on the Tiktok mobile app, type "Cowboy Carter" or "Cowboy Carter Tour" into the search bar and click "LIVE" below the bar. All users who are streaming from their phones will appear and you can switch between streams.

To do this on a desktop, search the same thing here.

Viewing on Instagram is a bit trickier. Search specific user names to see if there is an available live stream to join. (I found user names on Reddit threads, Instagram fan pages and in the comments of various TikTok lives.)

Since there are five shows in SoFi Stadium alone, some users even disclosed where their seats were located so fans knew what their view would be.

Worthy of your time: There are still tickets to see it in-person.
