SEVENTEEN Opens October North American Tour in U.S.
SEVENTEEN will launch the SEVENTEEN WORLD TOUR [NEW_] in U.S. this October, visiting five major American cities. The group continues the strong performance of its U.S. tour from last year, steadily expanding recognition and influence in the region. This series of shows will further strengthen their reputation as one of the most dynamic K‑pop groups performing internationally.
Tour Schedule and Venues for SEVENTEEN North American Tour
The U.S. tour will begin on October 11 at the Tacoma Dome. Performances follow on October 16–17 at LA BMO Stadium, a key highlight of the tour. The journey continues with shows on October 21–22 at Austin Moody Center, October 26–27 at Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise, and October 29–30 at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C. Tacoma will have one performance, while the other four cities will each host two shows, giving local fans multiple opportunities to attend.
SEVENTEEN Achieves Recognition Before North American Tour
SEVENTEEN’s previous RIGHT HERE World Tour in U.S. marked their first North American stadium performances. They became the only K‑pop group listed on Billboard’s year‑end Boxscore Top Tours chart. Their wins at the Billboard Music Awards and MTV Video Music Awards reinforced their competitive position and demonstrated their ability to captivate large international audiences.
New Album Success Adds Energy to North American Tour
The fifth studio album HAPPY BURSTDAY reached second place on the Billboard 200, adding momentum to the upcoming U.S. tour. The title track Thunder appeared on Billboard’s 25 Best K‑pop Songs of 2025, further proving their musical creativity. The NEW_ tour will open in Incheon on September 13–14. After completing the North American leg in October, SEVENTEEN will move to Japan for ten dome concerts in November and December.
Community Interest in U.S. tour Scale
On Korean community theqoo, fans are actively discussing the scale and business details of SEVENTEEN’s North American tour. While LA will feature stadium‑level shows, the other cities will host arena performances. Many fans compare the size of venues, ticket demand, and expected audience response in each city.
Concert Revenue Structure Highlights SEVENTEEN in North American Tour
SEVENTEEN’s U.S. tour operates without the MG (Minimum Guarantee) structure used by many groups. Like BTS, the group recognizes total ticket sales as revenue, which ensures a more direct impact on HYBE’s earnings. Industry observers expect this tour to contribute at least 10–20% of HYBE’s concert and merchandise revenue. This distinctive model demonstrates SEVENTEEN’s strong position among idol groups and their ability to operate at a higher commercial scale.
