BLACKPINK, having successfully reached the halfway point of its world tour, is expanding its concert schedule in Asia thanks to the strong enthusiasm of music fans.
On September 19, YG Entertainment posted a new poster for the “BLACKPINK WORLD TOUR <DEADLINE>” on BLACKPINK’s official social media accounts. According to the announcement, the group will hold additional shows in Singapore on November 28 and in Hong Kong on January 26 of next year, meeting local fans through a total of six performances across the two cities.
This decision comes in response to explosive global demand. Tickets for the originally planned shows sold out quickly as soon as sales opened, leading to a flood of requests for additional performances. To answer this overwhelming interest, YG Entertainment decided to expand the tour schedule.
In total, BLACKPINK will now perform 20 concerts across 8 Asian cities. Previously announced shows include Goyang in July, Kaohsiung on October 18 and 19, Bangkok on October 24–26, Jakarta on November 1 and 2, Bulacan on November 22 and 23, Singapore on November 29 and 30, Tokyo on January 16–18, and Hong Kong on January 24 and 25.
Most of the venues BLACKPINK will perform in are stadiums that can hold tens of thousands of people, once again cementing their position as top-tier global artists. Adding to this momentum is the excitement surrounding their new single “Jump”, which has recently dominated charts worldwide, further amplifying their overwhelming influence.
BLACKPINK kicked off the “BLACKPINK WORLD TOUR <DEADLINE>” in July with a historic performance at the Goyang Sports Complex, the first K-pop girl group to headline there. The tour, spanning 33 shows in 16 cities, has already been a success in North America and Europe. Starting in October, the group will continue in Asia, with stops in Kaohsiung, Bangkok, Jakarta, Bulacan, Singapore, Tokyo, and Hong Kong.
