NEW YORK, Dec. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- European dates have been announced for Beyonce's "I AM..." World Tour, beginning Sunday, April 26 in Croatia and running through Sunday May 31 at the Odyssey Arena in Belfast (please see itinerary following).

The world-renowned top designer, director and photographer Thierry Mugler will work as creative advisor and costume designer on Beyonce's "I AM..." Tour.

Beyonce's new concert production promises to showcase the music and film superstar, along with her extraordinary all-female band, performing musical hits, classics, and surprises in a newly-created high-tech state-of-the-art concert environment.
