WayV, EVAN, A2O LITE join D AWARDS 2027 in Paris as 4th lineup

WayV, EVAN, A2O LITE confirmed for Paris awards show

WayV, EVAN, and A2O LITE are the 4th lineup addition to D AWARDS 2027 in PARIS. The K-pop awards ceremony runs January 15 and 16, 2027 at Plenitude Arena (formerly La Défense Arena) in Paris, France.

D AWARDS is in its third edition and holds the distinction of being the first K-pop and K-content awards ceremony held in the EU. Sports Donga and WSM co-host the event, with WSM and StoryPeak Global co-organizing. Channel A will air it domestically.

The three acts joining the bill

All three 4th-lineup acts stayed busy through 2026. WayV, who debuted in 2019, released their 8th mini album Vision Wings in August. EVAN launched solo activities with debut single Ride or Die in June, then followed up with first mini album DEATH OF ME in September. He handled songwriting, composition, and visual directing on both projects himself. A2O LITE is the newest of the three. The group entered the industry in the second half of this year and dropped debut track NEON this month, charting on domestic and international music charts and appearing on music broadcast programs.

(A2O LITE going from debut single to Paris arena stage in the same month is a fast turnaround by any measure.)

Who's already on the lineup

The first through third lineup announcements filled out a substantial bill. TWICE's Jihyo serves as main host and performer. Tomorrow X Together, Yeonjun, DPR IAN, and P1Harmony are locked in. YENA, KISS OF LIFE, AMPERS&ONE, and RESCENE round out that tier. KickFlip, KiiiKiii, IDID, ALPHA DRIVE ONE, LNGSHOT, and AND2BLE complete the announced roster.

A 5th lineup announcement is still pending. The two-day ceremony's detailed schedule and official ticket reservation dates haven't been revealed yet.
