STRAY KIDS’ first-ever stadium concert in Korea will take place at full capacity.
The group will hold its solo concert, “Stray Kids World Tour <dominATE : celebrATE>”, on October 18 and 19 at the Incheon Asiad Main Stadium. Following the exclusive presale for 5th-generation members of their official fan club STAY on September 12 at 8 PM KST, and the general sale on September 16 at 8 PM KST, both shows sold out, once again proving the group’s overwhelming ticket power.
This concert carries special meaning as it serves as the encore and grand finale of the group’s largest world tour to date, “<dominATE>”, which included 54 shows across 34 regions worldwide. The name of the concert combines its July 2024 mini album “ATE” with the English word “celebrate,” symbolizing a major celebration. True to its title, STRAY KIDS, who, from August 2024 in Seoul to July 2025 in Rome, filled massive venues around the globe for nearly 11 months while setting numerous K-pop “firsts” and “bests”, will host a spectacular ceremony to commemorate the journey.
With this encore concert, STRAY KIDS will also make its first-ever solo appearance in an outdoor stadium in Korea. They previously performed at the KSPO DOME in September 2022 with “Stray Kids 2nd World Tour ‘MANIAC’ Seoul Special (UNVEIL 11)” and at the Gocheok Sky Dome in October 2023 with “Stray Kids ‘5-STAR Dome Tour 2023 Seoul Special (UNVEIL 13)’.” Having continuously expanded the scale of its venues, the group will finally step onto a national stadium stage this October, leaving another milestone in its career.
Meanwhile, with its 4th full-length album, “KARMA,” released on August 22, STRAY KIDS set new records across global music charts, further cementing their reputation as true “K-pop record makers.” They reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200 for the seventh time, becoming the first artists in the 70-year history of the chart to have seven consecutive works debut directly at No. 1. As of the latest chart dated September 20 (local time), the album ranked at No. 8, remaining in the top tier for three consecutive weeks and showcasing its long-running popularity.
