Beyoncé's Renaissance tour responds to DC trains service delays in style!
Washington DC - Beyoncé had a contingency plan in place for Mother Nature during her Renaissance World Tour stop in the Washington DC area on Sunday night.
Due to stormy weather conditions, FedEx Field in North Englewood, Maryland, issued a shelter-in-place warning on social media before showtime, delaying the massive production by hours.
The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority extended Metro service hours past their scheduled end time to allow fans to use public transit to get home.
And Queen Bey picked up the tab for the extra time.
"Metro will extend the last train by an extra hour beyond the extended closing previously announced," the rail system stated in a press release. "The extended time means the #BeyHive can stay for the 'Party' and still get home on Metro."
"The additional hour will be funded by the Tour to cover the $100,000 cost to run more trains, keep all 98 stations open for customers to exit, and other operational expenses," the statement added.
Famous faces attend Beyoncé's DC show
Sunday night's show was the last of two tour stops in the vicinity of the nation's capital.
Vice President Kamala Harris, second gentleman Douglas Emhoff, and former first daughter Malia Obama were among the notable attendees spotted during the Saturday show.
"Thanks for a fun date night, @Beyonce," Harris captioned a photo on Instagram Sunday.
The 43-show jaunt, which kicked off its stateside leg in May in Stockholm, is scheduled to wrap on September 27 in New Orleans.
According to Billboard, the 21-show European leg of the tour has already raked in $154 million.
