The 'MZ Generation's Icon,' IVE, has set off for Germany today to perform at the globally renowned music festival 'Lollapalooza Berlin'.
Following their appearance at 'Lollapalooza Chicago' last year, IVE has been invited to perform at both 'Lollapalooza Berlin' and 'Lollapalooza Paris' this year, further solidifying their presence as global artists.
Starship Entertainment announced, "IVE has been invited as the first K-pop girl group to perform at 'Lollapalooza Berlin', where they will present a solo performance lasting about 55 minutes at the Olympiastadion in Germany on the 12th (local time)."
Last year, IVE captivated the audience at 'Lollapalooza Chicago' with their high-quality performance and explosive live vocals. American music magazine Rolling Stone praised them for "shaking up the stage with live arrangements," and Billboard listed their performance as "one of the most memorable shows of the festival," including them in their 'Top 10 Performances'.
Continuing their impressive trajectory on the global festival stage, IVE recorded 15 music show wins with their third mini-album *'IVE EMPATHY'* in February. They are also scheduled to perform at the halftime show of the '2025 Coupang Play Series' first match on the 30th.
Notably, IVE stands out as the only K-pop girl group to perform at Lollapalooza for two consecutive years, including this year's 'Lollapalooza Berlin' and 'Lollapalooza Paris'. They are the first K-pop girl group to be invited to 'Lollapalooza Berlin'.
IVE expressed through their agency, "It's an honor and thrilling to stand on the global stage of 'Lollapalooza' once again. Last year's performance left us with overwhelming and joyful memories, and we hope to share another memorable time with music fans worldwide this year."
Meanwhile, IVE will continue their global activities, performing at 'Lollapalooza Berlin' on the 12th and 'Lollapalooza Paris' on the 20th.
