Beyonce broke down in tears as she concluded her Mrs Carter Show World Tour in Lisbon, Portugal on Thursday.

After nearly a year on the road, the star wrapped her successful tour in front of thousands of fans at Lisbon's MEO Arena, and gave an emotional speech thanking all the people who had supported her during the trek.

"If you all don't know, tonight makes 132 shows," she told the crowd.

"Tonight is the last show of the Mrs Carter Show. We started a year ago and I want to say this has been such a journey.

"In the past year, we've been through so much together. The Super Bowl, shooting the videos, all of these shows.

"When I first started the tour, my baby was not even walking yet. I just want you to know that I am so lucky."

As she started to tear up, Beyonce added, "I'm giving y'all an ugly cry. Thank y'all again. Thank you for allowing me to have a career. And when I fall, you lift me up. When I'm hungry, you feed me. And I just want to give you my light. I dedicate this song to you."

Beyonce concluded her final concert with her track XO, from her self-titled album, that was released in December.
