Blackpink is set to make history once again as they embark on a world tour that will see them perform at some of the most iconic stadiums around the globe, including Wembley Stadium in London and Goyang Stadium in South Korea. YG Entertainment officially announced the partial tour schedule, positioning Blackpink as the first K-pop girl group to headline these prestigious venues, further cementing their status as a global phenomenon.
The world tour is slated to commence on July 5 and 6 at Goyang Stadium in Gyeonggi Province, marking the first time a K-pop girl group will headline a concert at this major South Korean venue. From there, Blackpink will journey across continents, performing at high-profile stadiums in North America, Europe, and Asia. Confirmed stops include Sofi Stadium in Los Angeles, Soldier Field in Chicago, Rogers Center in Toronto, and Citi Field in New York. Each venue is known for its massive capacity, underlining the group's unparalleled global appeal.
In Europe, Blackpink will take over legendary arenas such as Stade de France in Paris, Ippodromo La Maura in Milan, the Olympic Stadium in Barcelona, and the iconic Wembley Stadium in London. Their Wembley concert holds special significance, as it marks the first time a K-pop girl group will perform at the stadium and only the second time a K-pop act has headlined there, following BTS’s historic concert in 2019.
The group will also make a much-anticipated return to Japan, performing at the Tokyo Dome, a venue renowned for hosting only the biggest names in the music industry. In total, the announced leg of the tour includes 10 major international stops, with YG Entertainment hinting at additional dates and locations to be revealed in the coming months.
YG Entertainment emphasized the scale and ambition of the tour, stating, "All of the announced venues are stadium-level, capable of hosting tens of thousands of fans. This tour will not only showcase Blackpink's global influence but also set new records in the K-pop industry." The company highlighted how the tour reflects Blackpink's evolution from a breakout K-pop act to an international powerhouse capable of filling some of the world’s largest arenas.
This world tour follows the massive success of Blackpink’s previous tours and headlining performances at major music festivals like Coachella and Hyde Park, further solidifying their reputation as trailblazers in the K-pop industry. Their consistent ability to draw huge crowds across continents underscores their status as cultural icons who transcend language and borders.
Fans around the world are eagerly awaiting ticket sales, which are expected to sell out rapidly given Blackpink's track record. YG Entertainment has promised a series of high-energy performances featuring an expansive setlist, state-of-the-art stage designs, and stunning visuals that have become a hallmark of Blackpink's global tours.
As Blackpink continues to break barriers and set new records, this world tour stands as another testament to their unparalleled influence and the growing global impact of K-pop.
