SEVENTEEN tops Pollstar Asia touring chart with $97M revenue, 661K tickets sold

SEVENTEEN climbs from 2nd to 1st on Pollstar's Asia chart

SEVENTEEN topped Pollstar's Asia Focus Chart: Top Touring Artists for August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2026. They logged $97,394,004 in tour revenue—roughly 130 billion won—and sold 661,088 tickets. Last year they placed 2nd, behind Coldplay.

Pledis Entertainment said: "Despite some members being absent, they raised the ranking and proved their sustained presence in the concert market."

The top 10 skewed heavily K-pop. Six of the ten acts were Korean: TWICE at 2nd, Tomorrow X Together at 3rd, BTS at 4th, BLACKPINK at 8th, and ENHYPEN at 9th.

22 shows across Asia's biggest venues

SEVENTEEN WORLD TOUR [NEW_] launched in September 2025. The group played stadiums in Incheon, Hong Kong, Singapore, Bangkok, and Bulacan in the Philippines. Then came Japan's dome circuit—Bantelinドーム Nagoya, Kyocera Dome Osaka, Tokyo Dome, and Mizuho Fukuoka PayPay Dome. Twenty-two concerts total across Asian stadiums and domes.

In Hong Kong, SEVENTEEN became the first K-pop act to sell out all four performances at Kai Tak Stadium, the city's largest venue.

Fan meetings followed the main tour. May brought dates at Kyocera Dome Osaka and Tokyo Dome. June added Incheon Asiad Main Stadium. Across those three stops, roughly 238,000 fans showed up.

Member units keep the momentum going

Solo and unit work ran parallel to the group schedule. HOSHI X WOOZI, ESOUPS X MINGYU, DOKYEOM X SEUNGKWAN, Vernon (V8), and DINO each held standalone shows across major Asian markets.

JEONGHAN and JOSHUA are next. Their JEONGHAN X JOSHUA JOURNEY INTO [DREAMING] tour hits six cities domestically and internationally. The opening run at Incheon Inspire Arena (October 30 through November 1, 2026) sold out the day FC membership pre-sales opened.
