Previous Club Renaissance events were more exclusive

Variety reports that the album’s New York release party in August, which was attended by numerous stars including Chloe Bailey, Normani and Kendrick Lamar, was the first incarnation of the event.

Beyoncé later opened a Paris-based club Renaissance – with artists like Doja Cat and Tyler, the Creator. Additionally, the Parisians reportedly had a chance to win tickets via a social media contest.

Well, for the Los Angeles event, people were actually given the opportunity to get tickets for themselves, although it didn’t really work out for many.

Were you one of the lucky Beyhive members who managed to snag tickets to Club Renaissance? Also, what are your thoughts on the event being such a short notice and being only available in LA?
