TWICE close 188-concert world tour run with sold-out Seoul encore
TWICE wraps their sixth world tour, 'THIS IS FOR', at Seoul's KSPO DOME starting July 10—188 shows across 59 regions since their first solo tour in 2017.
TWICE are closing out their sixth world tour, THIS IS FOR, with a sold-out encore run at Seoul's KSPO DOME beginning July 10. Every session is sold out.
Since their first solo tour in 2017, the group has performed 188 concerts across 59 regions and 80 venues. Six world tours in total, from TWICELAND: The Opening through THIS IS FOR.
THIS IS FOR alone accounts for 81 of those shows, spread across 44 regions worldwide—their largest-scale tour to date. The run applied a 360-degree full-open stage configuration to every regional stop.
In North America, 35 concerts across 20 regions drew 550,000 audience members. That's the highest figure ever recorded by a K-pop girl group on a North American tour. Thirteen of those cities had never hosted TWICE before. The Japan leg pulled 640,000 across all four of the country's major venues. Tokyo National Stadium alone brought in 240,000 over three days—TWICE were the first K-pop group and the first overseas artist to hold a solo concert there. First-ever solo shows in Macau, Kaohsiung, Hong Kong, and Taipei were also part of the run. The Hong Kong stop at Kai Tak Stadium marked another first for a K-pop girl group.
Earlier tours stacked their own records. The third tour, TWICELIGHTS, produced their debut U.S. solo concert at The Forum in Los Angeles and their first KSPO DOME appearance at home. The fourth tour, Ⅲ, made them the first K-pop girl group to perform at a U.S. stadium, with encore dates at Bank of California Stadium in Los Angeles and three consecutive nights at Tokyo Dome. The fifth tour, READY TO BE, crossed 1.5 million cumulative attendees and included sold-out shows at SoFi Stadium and MetLife Stadium. They became the first female group globally to play both venues, plus the first overseas female artist solo concert at Nissan Stadium in Japan.
TWICE debuted in 2015 and are marking their 11th anniversary this year. The Seoul encore is the final stop of a roughly year-long tour, billed as a career-spanning set covering all 11 years.
