Stray Kids successfully opens Rogers stadium in Toronto, wrapping up north american tour.
Stray Kids has successfully wrapped up their North American stadium tour with a historic concert at Rogers Stadium in Toronto, marking the first-ever performance at the newly opened venue. This show was part of their ongoing world tour, 'Stray Kids World Tour' , which spanned 10 cities with 13 total shows.
Held on June 29 (local time), the Toronto concert set a record as the largest K-pop concert ever held in Canada, with Rogers Stadium accommodating up to 50,000 attendees. Stray Kids became the first artist to perform at the stadium since its opening in June. The venue is also scheduled to host performances by Coldplay and Oasis in the future.
The group kicked off the show with “MOUNTAINS,” followed by title tracks from their Billboard 200 No.1 albums, group hits, and unit stages from their digital single 'Mixtape: dominATE'.
“We’re so thrilled to wrap up our North American tour here in Toronto. Seeing so many STAYs fill this massive stadium was deeply moving,” the group shared. “Thanks to our fans, we’ve been able to perform on such big stages. Thank you for lighting up Toronto tonight.”
Starting on May 24 in Seattle, the North American tour culminated in Toronto, solidifying Stray Kids’ position as global stadium artists. They made history as the first K-pop act to perform at several major U.S. stadiums, including Seattle’s T-Mobile Park, Orlando’s Camping World Stadium, Washington D.C.’s Nationals Park, Chicago’s Wrigley Field, and Toronto’s Rogers Stadium. They also became the first artist to hold back-to-back shows at Arlington’s Globe Life Field.
Additionally, they became the first K-pop boy group to sell out Oracle Park in San Francisco, drawing major media attention from ABC, CBS, and leading California dailies. Landmarks like the Empire State Building in New York and Willis Tower’s Skydeck in Chicago lit up in Stray Kids’ signature red in celebration.
Having first performed in a North American stadium in Los Angeles in March 2023, Stray Kids returned less than two years later to fill major stadiums across ten North American cities, proving their incredible momentum and global popularity.
They will next embark on their first European stadium tour, beginning July 11 in Amsterdam’s Johan Cruyff Arena, covering six cities across eight shows.
