This marks BLACKPINK’s first headline tour since their record-breaking Born Pink World Tour, which ran from 2022 to 2023.
It became the highest-grossing tour by a girl group and drew over 1.8 million fans to stages worldwide.
Together, they have redefined global K-POP success, captivating audiences around the world with their dynamic live performances and record-breaking achievements.
They also hold the title for the most-subscribed artist on YouTube, boasting over 95 million subscribers.
Over the past few years, the singers have launched highly successful solo careers, releasing several debut albums, EPs and various chart-topping hits.
Despite launching their solo careers, Lisa previously reassured fans that the South Korean band have no plans to call it quits.
She told ELLE US last August: ‘Of course, we’re continuing, for sure. We’re so proud of BLACKPINK, and I love BLACKPINK. It is not just because of our fans, it’s for ourselves. There was no doubt. This is our life.’
News of a world tour comes just after Jisoo released her debut mini album, Amortage.

Meanwhile, Jennie is set to drop her debut solo album, Ruby, on March 7 and Lisa will share her solo album Alter Ego, on February 28.
Lalisa is currently starring in White Lotus’s highly-anticipated third season.
The star looked stunning as she arrived at the premiere in Los Angeles on Monday evening wearing a chic silver and golden gown.
Gushing about her role in the series, she said: ‘I don’t know what to feel right now. I’m just so excited. I can’t wait for all of you guys to watch this show.’
Speaking to Variety, she continued: ‘It is my first acting [experience]. So I don’t know what to expect on set, but everybody just being so supportive helped me a lot. So thank you, everyone.’
Remarking on her first day of filming, she admitted to feeling ‘so nervous’ and ‘sweating’.
‘I was like, “I can’t remember my lines”,’ she revealed. ‘I’m blanked.’
However, the stage fright may be surprising to hear for fans of Lisa’s music – as she is renowned for her dancing skills, exceptional rapping skills and confident persona.
In the lyrics of one of her latest hit singles – Rockstar – she confidently sings: ‘Been on a mission, boy, they call me catch-and-kill; I’m stealin’ diamonds, make them chase me for the thrill… That’s my life, life, baby, I’m a rockstar.’
The tune – which earned her the coveted Best K-Pop prize at the MTV VMAs in September – is a teaser of her upcoming album, Alter Ego, to be released by her own label, Lloud and RCA Records.
