Red Velvet drop 5-track summer mini-album 'Velvet Summer' on August 3, their first complete-group release since 'Cosmic' in June 2024.
Red Velvet are coming back. Velvet Summer hits August 3 across online music platforms, with a physical edition the same day.
It's their first full-group album in approximately 2 years and 2 months — Cosmic came out in June 2024. The title track is Surfin' Boy.
Before the album lands, the group holds the 2026 Red Velvet FAN-CON <A Day in Red & Velvet> at Korea University's Hwajung Gymnasium on August 1 and 2. Both dates sold out entirely during the pre-sale phase. Pre-orders for the physical album are already open.
Red Velvet have a documented track record with summer releases. Red Flavor, Power Up, Umpah Umpah, and Queendom all became mega-hits in their respective seasons. (The "summer queen" tag follows them around for a reason.) ReVeluvs have two years of wait behind them — the fan-con sellout suggests demand hasn't cooled.
