BLACKPINK 2023 Coachella Valley Music And Arts Festival - Weekend
(L-R) Rosé, Jennie, Jisoo, and Lisa of BLACKPINK perform at the Coachella Stage during the 2023 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival on April 22, 2023 in Indio, California.

The world's biggest girl band BLACKPINK is back and ready to paint Asia pink. After taking over stages across North America and Europe, the queens of K-pop are heading east for the newly announced Asia leg of their record-shattering world tour.

After a hiatus of almost two years, the ladies are ready to take BLACKPINK and their fans to a new level.

Jennie was the first to go solo, debuting with "SOLO" in 2018, a sleek and confident track that set the tone for her image as a fashion-forward icon and trendsetter. In 2023, she made waves by stepping into the world of acting with her role in The Idol and launching her label, ODD ATELIER.

Meanwhile, Rosé's solo debut with R in 2021 featured the emotional ballad "On The Ground," earning praise for its introspective lyrics and proving her vocal range could hold its own outside the group. Her single with Bruno Mars "ATP" took her to a new level of worldwide recognition.

Lisa, BLACKPINK's Thai rapper and dancer, exploded onto the solo scene in 2021 with LALISA, a bold declaration of identity that broke YouTube records and turned her into a global fashion ambassador. Her fierce style and charisma cemented her as a Gen Z icon, with the single "MONEY" going viral worldwide, and her performance in 'White Lotus', broaden her audience.

Jisoo, the last member to debut solo, unveiled her softer, romantic side in 2023 with "FLOWER," which topped charts in several countries and revealed her potential as a leading actress following her role in the K-drama Snowdrop. T

Kicking off in Taiwan's Kaohsiung this October, the tour will bring Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa to some of the region's biggest cities for multi-night stadium takeovers. From Bangkok and Jakarta to Manila and Singapore, the BLACKPINK takeover will culminate in a two-night finale in Hong Kong on January 24 and 25, 2026, at the brand-new Kai Tak Stadium.

This marks BLACKPINK's first headline run since their massive BORN PINK world tour, which made history as the highest-grossing tour by a K-pop girl group, with over 1.8 million fans attending 66 shows across 34 cities.

And for Hong Kong BLINKs, this is more than a concert — it's a moment. It's been years since the group last performed in the city, and Kai Tak Stadium, a new gem in Hong Kong's skyline, is the perfect setting for their signature mix of ferocity, fashion, and full-scale spectacle.

BLACKPINK's star has only grown since their debut. With global smash hits like "Kill This Love," "How You Like That," and "Pink Venom," the group broke records with their debut studio album The Album and became the first Korean girl group to perform — and later headline — at Coachella. Their second album BORN PINKwent even further, topping charts in both the U.S. and U.K. — a first for any Asian female artist.

Now, they're ready to make history again.

Whether you're a diehard BLINK or just a fan of pop spectacle at its finest, this is one tour that promises glitter, pyrotechnics, dance breaks, and diva energy in spades. The countdown is on.
