BigBang Reunites After 9 Years…20th Anniversary Massive World Tour Confirmed, 31 Concerts Across 18 Cities

[Exclusive] The Emperor Returns After 9 Years of Silence… 'BigBang' Confirmed for a 20th Anniversary Massive World Tour to Overwhelm 18 Cities Worldwide

'BigBang,' which established the global standard for K-pop, breaks a long hibernation of 9 years and returns again on the milestone timeline of a 20th anniversary debut. The overwhelming aura of an icon that spans the era has been fully set to shake the world once more.

A major shift in the K-pop scene is coming. The group 'BigBang', known as the very top of the second generation—or even as the group that is K-pop’s history itself—will return to fans around the world with solo concerts after 9 years.

YG Entertainment announced on the 11th that they will open the grand prelude to their 20th anniversary 'WorldTour' at 'Goyang Sports Complex Main Stadium' from Aug. 21 to 23 this August. It marks a historic moment as the emperor’s clock, which had stopped since 2017, starts ticking again.

This tour goes beyond a simple comeback. It is a 'global mega project'. Starting in Korea, they will make stops across 18 cities worldwide—North America, Europe, Oceania, Asia, and more—through February of next year, presenting a total of 31 massive shows.

In particular, the lineup of confirmed tour venues is at an astonishing level. Landmarks that only the world’s top-tier artists can step onto have been picked as the stage for them. This is clear evidence that their status as 'K-pop legends' remains unassailable.

• London, UK 'Tottenham Hotspur Stadium'

• Paris, France 'Stade de France'

• Hong Kong 'Kai Tak Stadium'

• Japan 'Tokyo Dome'

Since debuting in 2006, they have poured out mega hit songs that changed the landscape of popular music history, including 'Lies', 'Day by Day', 'Last Farewell', and 'Loser', laying the foundation for global expansion.

A YG Entertainment official said, "We are building an 'all-time-class scale' worthy of the title of a 20th anniversary debut," and added, "We are putting extreme care into the quality of the stage for the fandom that has felt a long drought, and the additional cities where the shows will take place will also be unveiled sequentially."
