Dream Concert, K-pop’s longest-running and most iconic music festival, has officially announced its first-ever world tour, set to take place in 2025.
Celebrating its 31st anniversary this year, Dream Concert has been held annually since its inception in 1995 without interruption, earning its place as a historic staple in Korean pop culture.
The Korea Entertainment Producers’ Association (KEPA), chaired by Im Baek Woon, confirmed that the Dream Concert will go global to meet international fans who have shown unwavering love for K-pop. KEPA, which organizes the tour, is a nonprofit organization representing 441 domestic entertainment companies and over 5,000 affiliated artists. It plays a key role in developing infrastructure for the music industry and advocating for producers’ rights.
The Dream Concert World Tour aims to create a unique platform for both K-pop’s continued global growth and for artists to reach international audiences. Organizers promise to deliver the kind of grand, dreamlike stage that only Dream Concert can offer.
The tour will be held across September and October, with host cities and schedules to be revealed sequentially. Ahead of the full announcement, the official logo for the 2025 Dream Concert has been unveiled.
The new logo creatively incorporates the Korean consonants from “Dream Concert” and features Korea’s country code (+82), symbolizing the global nature of the tour. For each country on the tour, a localized version of the logo featuring that nation’s international dialing code will be released.
Chairman Im stated, “Dream Concert is not only the longest-running K-pop concert in Korea, but also a living history of K-pop—from its beginnings in the 1990s to its global dominance today. With this world tour, we aim to capture and share the unique value that only Dream Concert can offer.”
