STRAY KIDS
A sold-out show in Madrid and a historic milestone for K-pop in Spain.
STRAY KIDS delivered a triumphant solo concert in Madrid, playing to a sold-out crowd and making history with the largest K-pop concert ever held in Spain.
On July 22 (local time), STRAY KIDS performed a solo show at the Cívitas Metropolitano in Madrid as part of their world tour “Stray Kids World Tour <dominATE>.” It marked the group’s first-ever solo concert in the Spanish capital and drew massive attention. All tickets were sold out, proving the group’s overwhelming popularity in the region. The event has now gone down in history as the biggest solo K-pop concert ever staged in Spain.
The venue, Cívitas Metropolitano, is the home stadium of Atlético Madrid and has hosted major events such as the UEFA Champions League Final and Copa del Rey Final. Global stars like The Rolling Stones, Bruno Mars, and Ed Sheeran have all performed there. With this concert, STRAY KIDS became the first-ever K-pop and Asian act to hold a solo concert at the stadium and sell out every seat — further cementing their global stature.
The show kicked off with an explosive performance of “Mountains”, setting the tone for a night of high energy. The group delivered a string of powerful performances, including Billboard 200 No.1 album title tracks, fan-favorite hits, unit stages, and songs from their digital single “Mixtape: dominATE.” The massive stadium pulsed with excitement throughout the night.
As the concert drew to a close, the eight members shared their heartfelt thoughts:
“We’ve always wanted to come to Spain. Thanks to you, we were finally able to visit this beautiful city. Thank you for waiting for us. We promise we’ll be back.”
They ended the night with an emotional encore of “Star lost,” creating unforgettable memories with their fans, known as STAY, on this special summer night.
Currently on the European leg of their world tour, STRAY KIDS will hold eight more concerts in six European cities. Next stop: Stade de France in Paris on July 26 and 27, followed by Stadio Olimpico in Rome on July 30, where the group will bring their largest tour yet, <dominATE>, to a spectacular close.
