RIIZE is set to make history as the first K-pop idol group to perform at the Austin City Limits Music Festival (ACL) in the United States.

The group will take the stage at Zilker Park in Austin, Texas, during the six-day festival held from October 3–5 and 10–12 (local time). RIIZE will present a vibrant performance that blends their signature “emotional pop” sound with dynamic stage presence—heightening anticipation among fans and festivalgoers.

Since its launch in 2002, ACL has grown into one of the largest music festivals in the U.S., drawing up to 450,000 attendees each year. This year’s star-studded lineup includes Sabrina Carpenter, Doja Cat, Doechii, Hozier, Luke Combs, and The Strokes, with RIIZE standing out as the first-ever K-pop idol group to join the bill.

RIIZE previously became the first K-pop act to appear at Mexico’s biggest pop music festival, Tecate Emblema, and has performed at major festivals including Korea’s Busan International Rock Festival, Japan’s Summer Sonic, and Thailand’s Rolling Loud. Their upcoming ACL debut marks yet another milestone as they continue to expand their global footprint.

Meanwhile, RIIZE’s first full-length album 'ODYSSEY' will be released on May 19 at 6 PM KST, featuring 10 tracks available on music streaming platforms and in physical format.
