Background[]
On July 6, 2022, YG Entertainment confirmed that Blackpink would release new music and embark on the largest world tour by a K-pop girl group in history later in the year.[3] On August 1, it was revealed that the group's second Korean studio album Born Pink would be released in September, followed by the world tour starting in October.[4]
On August 9, Blackpink announced 36 shows from October 2022 to June 2023 spanning Asia, North America, Europe, and Oceania, with more dates to be added in the future.[5] On September 6, the group unveiled the dates and venues for the North American and European legs of the tour.[6]
On October 6, Blackpink released two teaser images of the tour's visual setup, one featuring a black space with clouds of white smoke, and the other featuring a garden-like setting.
The tour opened with two concerts on October 15 and 16, 2022, at the KSPO Dome in Seoul, South Korea, which were attended by over 20,000 people. On October 28, the group revealed the dates and venues for the Asian leg of the tour.[7] They announced four dome concerts in two cities in Japan, Tokyo and Osaka, on December 7.[8] On January 9, 2023, Blackpink announced four additional shows for the Asian leg of the tour in Singapore, Macau and Kaohsiung.
On January 31, Blackpink announced ticketing details for the concerts in Australia and that the originally announced Auckland concert was no longer feasible due to "unforeseen logistical challenges." It was also announced that Blackpink would tour for the first time in Mexico City.[9]
As part of the encore leg of the tour, Blackpink announced a stadium concert in Paris on March 23, and several stadium concerts in United States on April 16.[10] On June 26, the group announced two shows in Hanoi on July 29 and 30, before their United States encore shows.[7]
