BIGBANG

For their first tour since 2017, G-DRAGON, TAEYANG and DAESUNG will reunite for a series of 31 concerts taking them across Asia, North America, Europe and Australia, with the tour set to kick off on Friday 21 August 2026 at Goyang Stadium in Goyang. This historic tour represents one of the most significant musical events of 2026 for fans worldwide and marks a new chapter in the history of one of the most influential groups in modern music.

Twenty years after their debut, BIGBANG remain one of the most influential groups to emerge from Asia. Widely recognised for helping to establish K-pop as a global cultural force, the group has redefined the possibilities for Korean artists on the international stage through pioneering music, record-breaking tours and an influence that extends to fashion, entertainment and popular culture. Their impact is evident in today’s global music landscape, inspiring generations of artists and helping to pave the way for K-pop’s global expansion.

This announcement follows BIGBANG’s historic return to the stage at Coachella 2026, where they delivered one of the most talked-about performances. Forbes hailed their “phenomenal set at Coachella” as “proof that they remain unrivalled”, whilst the Los Angeles Times noted that the group “drew a massive crowd” and described them as “one of the most influential groups in K-pop”, highlighting their enduring global appeal and cultural significance.    

This follows “Still Life”, released in 2022, the group’s first album in four years and a critically acclaimed comeback, which Billboard ranked among the best K-pop songs of the year. The track reaffirmed BIGBANG’s enduring artistic relevance and demonstrated the undiminished enthusiasm for one of the music scene’s most iconic groups.
