Stray Kids just flexed their stadium power at home, selling out every seat for their first-ever stadium concerts in Korea.
The group will take over Incheon Asiad Main Stadium on Oct. 18?19 for solo shows under the banner "Stray Kids World Tour <dominATE : celebrATE>." Tickets vanished fast: after a fan-club presale for STAY 5th members on the 12th, the remaining seats were snapped up in general sales on the 16th.
These dates serve as the encore finale to their biggest tour yet, "<dominATE>," which spanned 54 shows across 34 markets worldwide. True to the title―pairing their July 2024 mini-album "ATE" with the word "celebrate"―the nights will double as a victory lap marking an 11-month run that began in Seoul and stretched all the way to Rome.
With these gigs, Stray Kids make their long-awaited debut on a domestic outdoor stadium stage. After scaling up from KSPO DOME in September 2022 to Gocheok Sky Dome in October 2023, the Incheon Asiad Main Stadium dates cement their status as a bona fide stadium act in Korea.
Their chart performance is equally blazing. "KARMA," the group's fourth studio album released Aug. 22, soared to No. 1 on the Billboard 200―Stray Kids' seventh leader―making them the first act in the chart's 70-year history to debut seven consecutive No. 1 entries.
As of the Sept. 20 chart (local time), the set sits at No. 8, marking three straight weeks in the top tier and underscoring the group's global pull.
