ATEEZ kicks off North American leg of world tour! Proving their status as stadium-worthy artists

■Globe Life Field in Arlington is a large stadium with a capacity of over 40,000 people, and ATEEZ will be the first K-pop boy group to perform there!

ATEEZ kicked off the North American leg of their 2024 world tour “TOWARDS THE LIGHT : WILL TO POWER” at the Tacoma Dome in Tacoma, USA on July 14th (local time).

This North American tour is an extension of the 2024 world tour “TOWARDS THE LIGHT : WILL TO POWER” that kicked off in Seoul, South Korea in January. It will kick off in Tacoma, USA on July 14th, and will then go on to Oakland on the 17th, Los Angeles on the 20th and 21st, Phoenix on the 25th, Arlington on the 28th, Duluth on the 30th and 31st, New York on August 3rd, Washington DC on the 6th, Toronto on the 8th, and Rosemont on the 10th and 11th, for a total of 13 performances in 10 cities.

Earlier, ATEEZ received an overwhelming response less than a day after tickets for their North American tour went on general sale, and has now announced the addition of a show in Los Angeles, following the additional shows in Duluth and Rosemont. They are responding to the enthusiastic support of fans around the world ahead of their world tour. With this, ATEEZ has proven their status as a “stadium-sized artist” through this North American tour.

While BMO Stadium, where their two shows in Los Angeles will be held, is attracting attention, Citi Field, where their New York show will be held, is known as a venue where world-famous musicians such as Paul McCartney, Beyonce, and Lady Gaga have performed.

In addition, the venue for the performance in Arlington, Globe Life Field, is a large stadium with a capacity of over 40,000 people, and ATEEZ will be the first K-pop boy group to perform there, adding further significance to their status.

ATEEZ’s 10th mini album “GOLDEN HOUR: Part.1” has charted on the Billboard 200 (as of July 13th), the main album chart of the US Billboard, for five consecutive weeks, and has risen 18 places from the previous week. The fact that it has reversed the chart has attracted a lot of attention. In addition, the album was selected as one of the “20 Best K-Pop Albums of 2024 (So Far)” by the US Billboard, and Billboard praised the album, saying “WORK is one of the most noteworthy singles” and highly praised the other songs, saying “It takes the whole world on a musical journey through a variety of emotions.”

In April, ATEEZ became the first K-pop boy group to perform on the stage at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, and in June they became the first K-pop artists to headline the MAWAZINE festival. With a rich setlist and sensual stage direction, they demonstrated their skills as “performance craftsmen.”

With the North American tour following their performance at such an international festival, the expectations of fans around the world are high.
