SYDNEY, Feb. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Following her historic Grammy Awards triumph, the world is celebrating Beyoncé like never before, and to add to her list of achievements, Queen Bey made her spectacular debut at Madame Tussauds Sydney last week!
“The timing couldn't be more perfect as her stunning figure's unveiling comes fresh off the back of Queen B's show-stopping Grammy Awards appearance, where she further cemented her legacy as the most decorated artist in Grammy history by winning Album of the Year for the first time,” said Georgia Hooper, Executive at Madame Tussauds Sydney. 'She’s been at the top of the guest’s request list, so we're excited to finally welcome the world's biggest superstar to Sydney. Her arrival transforms our Illuminate Sydney zone into the ultimate A-list party – after all, it's not really a party until Beyoncé arrives.'
Sydney’s newest A-list resident brings an unmistakable air of superstardom to the attraction's Illuminate Sydney zone and is wearing a stunning recreation of her iconic 2023 Grammy Awards gown, celebrating the groundbreaking Renaissance era that has redefined modern pop culture.
It’s the first time Beyoncé has taken residence at Madame Tussauds Sydney and now she’s here to stay! The meticulously crafted figure took nine months to create and will take centre stage in the attraction’s A-list zone, Illuminate Sydney, where guests can strike their fiercest pose alongside the music industry’s reigning Queen.
Guests are invited to get in 'formation' and create their own Grammy-worthy moments with one of entertainment's most influential icons. For more information and to book tickets, visit https://www.madametussauds.com/sydney
