Stray Kids' first festival captivates Latin America as 'STRAYCITY' draws 270,000

The birth of 'STRAYCITY', a one-of-a-kind brand that swept across Latin America

The global K-pop landscape is shifting once again. Stray Kids successfully launched 'STRAYCITY' (STRAYCITY), a new music festival built around the group's name, drawing an impressive 270,000 fans across Latin America alone. JYP Entertainment officially announced the achievement on the 28th, reaffirming its strong standing in the global music market.

The tour unfolded across five shows in three key Latin American cities: Bogotá, Colombia, on the 9th (local time); Buenos Aires, Argentina, on the 14th and 15th; and Mexico City, Mexico, on the 25th and 26th.

'STRAYCITY' goes beyond the concept of a traditional solo concert. Planned as a large-scale project by 'JYP Entertainment' and Live Nation, the world's largest U.S. concert promoter, it is a distinctive festival headlined by 'Stray Kids'.

Onstage, the group delivered a succession of global fan favorites, including 'MANIAC' and 'Thunderous', prompting explosive singalongs from local audiences. The group's experience as a headliner at major festivals with worldwide reputations, including 'Lollapalooza Paris', 'Lollapalooza Chicago' and 'The Governors Ball Music Festival', shone through at its own festival.

What's next for 'Stray Kids' after cementing its status as a global headliner

'JYP Entertainment' said, "We plan to continue presenting 'STRAYCITY', infused with 'Stray Kids'' unique creative identity. We will further solidify the group's position as a 'global festival headliner audiences can trust to deliver,' one that anyone can freely enjoy regardless of borders or language."

As the group evolves from a K-pop act into a leading force on the global festival circuit, the music world is watching closely to see what comes next.
