BLACKPINK launches its massive world tour, reuniting with fans from around the globe.
The “BLACKPINK WORLD TOUR IN GOYANG”, taking place from July 5 to 7, marks their first tour in approximately 1 year and 10 months since “BORN PINK”, which broke a new record for K-pop girl groups by drawing in 1.8 million attendees. Compared to its first Seoul concert, this opening performance has seen a massive scale-up. BLACKPINK becomes the first K-pop girl group to hold a solo concert at the main stadium of the Goyang Sports Complex, opening a new chapter in its history.
The full group returns at the top of its game… with sincerity and synergy
This moment is particularly meaningful, as BLACKPINK, who has proven its global influence both as a group and through solo activities, comes together once again as a complete unit. Each member has refined her artistry through international projects and returns stronger than ever, reigniting the enduring value of the name BLACKPINK.
Because this is also a reunion with their beloved fans, Blinks, BLACKPINK’s sincerity is embedded in every detail. The members were personally involved in the creation of the setlist, choreography, and stage props, bringing a heartfelt touch to what promises to be a celebratory, immersive experience where every attendee feels like the star.
Bigger scale, fresher energy… A world-class production team comes together
BLACKPINK’s new tour reflects both the breadth of their musical journey and a push for something brand new. At this meaningful starting point, they’ll debut their first new song in 2 years and 8 months, titled “Jump”. The show will also feature the solo stages that previously made waves globally, highlighting each member’s distinct identity and charm.
To support the return of these legendary performers, every production element has been elevated to the highest level. The live band and dancers were newly assembled with top-tier staff who have previously worked with global icons like Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande. The result will be a visually dynamic and refreshing stage, delivering a thrilling, high-energy experience to all in attendance.
A global stadium spectacle begins… The world tour officially kicks off
In true BLACKPINK fashion, the tour launch comes with grand-scale promotions worthy of its global stature. A dedicated website has been launched to track all activities, signaling the start of their comeback. Meanwhile, their “PINK AREA” campaign has turned major Seoul landmarks, like Namsan Seoul Tower, Sevit Island, and Banpo Bridge, into glowing pink tributes to BLACKPINK.
With this momentum, BLACKPINK will begin its world tour covering 16 cities and 31 shows. They will perform at stadiums in Los Angeles, Chicago, Toronto, New York, Paris, Milan, Barcelona, London, Kaohsiung, Bangkok, Jakarta, Bulacan, Singapore, Tokyo, Hong Kong, and more, cementing their status as true global superstars.
This tour has also been designed with sustainability in mind, considering both environmental and social impacts. Efforts include the use of eco-friendly paper-packaged water (“BLACKPINK WATER”), a “YOUR GREEN STEP” booth to measure fans’ carbon footprint from travel and lodging, and awareness booths promoting recycling, helping lead the way in climate action.
