K-POP legend group BIGBANG, who debuted in 2006, has officially announced their 20th anniversary world tour "BIGSHOW: REBORN".

🎤 G-DRAGON Makes Declaration at Coachella

On April 19 (local time), BIGBANG took the stage at Coachella's Outdoor Theatre, the world's largest festival. For the first time since 2017 with all members together, G-DRAGON himself announced "We will begin our world tour in August."

DAESUNG commented to the media that "This is not just a comeback, but a 'reset'." The tour is expected to mark a new musical direction combined with the group's 20th anniversary milestone.

👥 Member Lineup: Why 3-Member Format

This tour will be carried out by G-DRAGON / TAEYANG / DAESUNG (3 members). T.O.P (Choi Seung-hyun) left the group in 2023 and is currently preparing solo album production, so he will not participate.

For fans expecting the original 5-member lineup, this may be disappointing news, but it represents a historic continuation of the group as an entity.

🇯🇵 Japanese Performance Expectations

As of April 20, specific dates and venues for Japanese performances have not been announced.

In past BIGBANG tours, performances at dome-level venues such as Tokyo Dome and Kyocera Dome have been standard. During the 2017 "Last Dance" tour, they set a record with 14 performances across the 4 major domes (Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, Fukuoka), drawing over 660,000 attendees.

Given this is their first tour in 9 years and marks their 20th anniversary, it is highly likely that multiple dome-scale performances will be scheduled in Japan as well. Announcements are expected around June to July.

🎫 Preparation for the Intensely Competitive Ticket Battle

With the group's first tour in 9 years and 20th anniversary significance, the ticket competition for Japanese performances is expected to be extremely fierce.
