6/23/2026, 12:37:57 PM

Tour Announcement and Core Details

JYP Entertainment announced on June 23 that South Korean boy group Stray Kids will embark on the “Run It” World Tour, beginning with five consecutive performances at the KSPO Dome in Songpa-gu, Seoul, on July 25, 26, 29, August 1 and 2, 2026. The tour will be supported by the digital single “RUN IT,” scheduled for release on June 24 at 13:00 KST, and the mini-album “THIS & THAT,” slated for August 7. The promotional poster includes the phrase “AND MORE,” indicating future dates beyond those currently listed.

Background: From dominATE to Run It

The new itinerary follows the dominATE World Tour, which concluded in October 2025 after 56 shows across 35 regions. That tour marked Stray Kids’ largest-scale global circuit to date. Their recent commercial success includes a No. 1 debut on the Billboard 200 for the album *Do It* in November 2025 and over 2.21 million first-week sales in South Korea, reinforcing the group’s position as a leading act in the international market.

Tour Schedule and Venues

  • Seoul, South Korea – KSPO Dome: July 25-26, 29; August 1-2, 2026
  • Tokyo, Japan – Japan National Stadium (MUFG Stadium): August 29-30, 2026
  • Nagoya, Japan – Vantelin Dome: September 5-6, 2026
  • Osaka, Japan – Kyocera Dome: September 19-20, 2026

The Japanese leg comprises seven concerts expected to attract approximately 370,000 attendees. Additional venues in North America, Europe, and Latin America are anticipated but have not yet been disclosed.

Market Impact and Milestones

Stray Kids will become the first overseas male artist to stage a solo concert at Japan’s National Stadium, a venue traditionally reserved for domestic acts and major sporting events. The projected attendance of 370,000 fans in Japan alone underscores the group’s expanding market reach. The tour’s launch coincides with the group’s first headline performance at New York’s Governors Ball Music Festival, where they performed before more than 45,000 spectators, further evidencing their global appeal.

Official Communications from JYP Entertainment

JYP Entertainment’s official statement, released via Stray Kids’ social-media channels, described the “Run It” tour as a “powerful start” to the group’s next promotional cycle, emphasizing the integration of the new single and upcoming mini-album into the live experience. The company also noted the strategic inclusion of “AND MORE” to signal forthcoming expansions of the itinerary.

Upcoming Festival Appearances

Following the Governors Ball performance on June 6, Stray Kids are slated to close their summer festival circuit at Brazil’s Rock in Rio on September 11, 2026. Later that month, they will headline “STRAYCITY,” a three-city festival across Latin America, further extending their presence in key international markets.

Outlook

The extensive schedule, combined with new music releases and historic venue milestones, signals Stray Kids’ intent to deepen their footprint across Asia, the Americas, and beyond.
