Stray Kids are wrapping up their largest-ever world tour, 'Stray Kids World Tour ', after traveling a total distance equivalent to circling the earth seven times.


The tour began in August 2024 at KSPO DOME in Seoul and spanned 54 shows across 34 cities worldwide, including stops in Asia, Oceania, Latin America, North America, and Europe. The grand finale will take place on July 30 in Rome, marking the end of a 340-day global journey.

Titled 'dominATE', a blend of their mini album 'ATE' and the word "dominate", the tour reflects Stray Kids’ ambition to conquer both domestic and global stages. Expanding their reach across five continents, the group has traveled approximately 285,000 kilometers—equivalent to circling the planet seven times.



Of the 34 venues, 31 were first-time stops for the group, and 27 of them were stadiums—underscoring Stray Kids’ explosive growth as global top-tier artists. For comparison, their previous 'MANIAC' tour in 2023 included just one stadium show (at Los Angeles’ BMO Stadium). In just two years, the group has broken into prestigious charts like Billboard 200 (with six consecutive No.1 entries), won multiple American music awards, and headlined major global festivals.


Now, with their new tour, Stray Kids have performed at stadiums across Latin America, North America, and Europe—reaching 27 stadiums in total.

Stray Kids set a number of records in 13 of the 27 stadiums on this tour. In São Paulo, they became the first K-pop group to perform at Estádio do Morumbi. In North America, they were the first K-pop act to enter six out of the ten stadiums on the tour. Notably, they were the first to hold two consecutive shows at Arlington’s Globe Life Field and the first to perform at Toronto’s Rogers Stadium since its reopening in June.


In Europe, they marked K-pop’s first entry into five of six stadiums: Amsterdam's Johan Cruyff Arena, Frankfurt's Deutsche Bank Park, London’s Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Madrid's Civitas Metropolitano, and Rome’s Stadio Olimpico. Among these, their performances in Amsterdam, Frankfurt, and Madrid were not only K-pop firsts but also the largest solo concerts ever held by an Asian artist in the Netherlands, Germany, and Spain.


Every step of their journey—spanning the equivalent of seven trips around the Earth—has brought Stray Kids closer to becoming one of the most dominant forces in global music. On July 26 and 27, the group will take the stage at Stade de France in Paris, their largest solo concert to date with an 80,000-seat capacity—20 times bigger than the venue of their first show in France. Finally, on July 30, they will make history once again as the first K-pop act to perform at Rome’s Stadio Olimpico, bringing their 'dominATE' era to a powerful close.
