After years of waiting, BOYFRIEND fans will finally have the chance to see their idols back on stage in Japan in 2026, with a tour that promises memorable performances and a celebration of the group’s career.
The “2026 BOYFRIEND JAPAN LIVE TOUR” has been officially announced, with confirmed dates in several major Japanese cities. The tour will kick off in Osaka from January 24 to 28, 2026, before continuing in Tokyo from January 30 to February 8, 2026, offering Japanese fans an intense series of concerts at the start of the year. Fan club member pre-sales opened at the end of December 2025, marking the beginning of preparations for these highly anticipated shows.
Formed in Seoul in 2011 under Starship Entertainment, BOYFRIEND is a K-pop group composed of six members: DONGHYUN, HYUNSEONG, JEONGMIN, YOUNGMIN, KWANGMIN, and MINWOO. They debuted the same year with the single “BOYFRIEND” and quickly became known for their energetic performances and catchy songs. The group disbanded in 2019 but reunited in 2021 to celebrate their 10th anniversary, returning to the spotlight with new releases and activities, notably under the shortened name BF.
In Japan, BOYFRIEND has historically maintained a strong relationship with the local audience, with several tours and promotional activities in the country since their debut. Their popularity never truly faded, even during their hiatus, and this 2026 tour represents a valuable opportunity for Japanese fans to relive the group’s live energy and celebrate their return through a dedicated series of concerts.
As the Japanese tour approaches, BOYFRIEND continues to maintain its musical presence through releases and special events. The members have already mentioned various activities planned for 2026, potentially including new singles, television appearances, and additional live performances that will extend this period of revival for the group.
With the “2026 BOYFRIEND JAPAN LIVE TOUR,” the group reaffirms its strong bond with the Japanese audience and opens a new live chapter eagerly awaited by fans.
