LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Beyhive, are you ready to see the queen?



Beyoncé will be performing at SoFi Stadium this Labor Day weekend and her "Renaissance" tour is truly one of one. The tour includes three shows in Inglewood on Sept. 1, 2 and 4. (Fun fact: Beyoncé turns 42 on September 4, so get ready to celebrate!)



Here's everything you need to know before Queen Bey makes her arrival.



Wear your silver!



Queen Bey has kindly asked her fans to rock their silver in celebration of Virgo season.



The aesthetic of the "Renaissance" tour, based on the footage fans have captured, is more "Alien Superstar" than "Cuff It": Think Afrofuturist cyborgs with impeccable style. But there are moments where Houston-meets-Studio 54, to be sure, including a life-size sparkling silver horse, similar to the steed Bey straddles on the cover of "Renaissance," on which Beyoncé sits suspended in mid-air. So yes, crystal-dripping cowboy hats are more than welcome.



Get there early!



For most shows, Beyoncé has been coming out almost as soon as it gets dark. Give yourself plenty of time to fight traffic if you're driving, get all of your content (videos and photos), and you can stop by the merchandise booth.



Wear comfortable shoes.

Lots of people are wearing incredible cowboy boots and heels. If you think your feet can handle that, then be our guest, but comfortable sneakers are recommended. You're going to be on your feet dancing!



Prepare to see some familiar faces



It's very likely that some A-list celebrities will be attending one of Beyoncé's shows so keep an eye out! On Thursday, DJ Khaled announced he will be opening up for the megastar on Friday and Saturday.



"Thank you @beyonce @jayz for the invite! When the Queen calls ... I run!!" he said in an Instagram post.



MUTE!!!

When Beyoncé sings "Energy" and says, "Look around, everybody on mute," remember to be quiet! It's not that long of a pause.

Get that merch!

There will be several places around the arena to purchase merchandise. The tour dad hats and tote bags went quickly, but they still had some available at the end of the show.



If you have a clack fan, bring it!

You'll want one when Beyoncé sings "Heated." If you decide to bring one, make sure to practice the fan movement to "Heated" in advance. The counts aren't the easiest to follow. There will be clack fans onsite for purchase as well.



Make new friends!

If you feel up for it, make friends with the people in your row. It makes the experience even more fun when your entire section is dancing together.



Have fun ending your summer with Renaissance!
