Stray Kids took the stage at SoFi Stadium, turning a symbolic venue into proof of their global power. The group delivered an electrifying setlist across two sold-out nights, thrilling fans from all over the world. Their performance marked a personal dream come true and a defining moment for K-popโs international rise.
Stray Kids and SoFi Stadium Open a New Chapter in Global Pop Music
On May 31 and June 1, Stray Kids held two unforgettable solo concerts at the iconic SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. Originally planned as a one-night event, the concert sold out rapidly, prompting the addition of a second show. The overwhelming response from fans confirmed not only their soaring popularity but also their growing cultural presence on the world stage. Performing at one of the most prestigious stadiums in the world, Stray Kids marked a moment of triumph that resonated far beyond music.
Why SoFi Stadium Matters for Stray Kids and K-pop
SoFi Stadium is more than just a concert venue; itโs a global landmark known for hosting world-class performers and events. As the home stadium of the Los Angeles Rams and Chargers, and the site of the upcoming 2028 Olympic ceremonies, it represents international prestige and massive scale. Iconic acts like The Rolling Stones, BTS, and TWICE have taken its stage before. By joining this exclusive list, Stray Kids proved that their appeal reaches beyond fandom and into the global mainstream. Their presence there wasnโt just a performanceโit was a declaration of their rightful place on the worldโs biggest stages.
Stray Kids and SoFi Stadium Create an Electric Night of Music and Emotion
The concert itself was an exhilarating three-hour journey through thirty songs, spanning their entire career from โDistrict 9โ to โGIANT (Korean Ver.).โ Immense LED screens wrapped around the stadiumโs circular ceiling, amplifying the powerful visuals that accompanied each performance. Fans filled the 60,000-seat venue with endless cheers and passionate singalongs, turning the stadium into a sea of energy. Stray Kids had previously stepped onto a North American stadium stage in 2023 at BMO Stadium, but this time, with triple the capacity, they returned stronger and more confident, fully owning the magnitude of the moment.
Stray Kids Fulfill a Long-Held Dream with Fans Beside Them
The group expressed deep gratitude to their fans, known as โSTAY,โ saying none of it was possible without their support. Hyunjin once shared in 2018 that his dream was to perform in a huge stadium within five years. That dream already came true in 2023 when they held a concert at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles. Still, stepping onto the SoFi stage felt like something even greater. It became a deeper milestone, shared live with tens of thousands of devoted fans. For Stray Kids, the dream didnโt just end with being there. It grew as the audience grew, turning hope into legacy.
Making K-pop History on a Global Stage
After their triumphant Los Angeles shows, Stray Kids will continue their world tour with stops on June 6 and 7 at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. The tour spans 34 cities with 55 scheduled performances and is projected to draw more than 2.2 million attendees worldwide. If achieved, this would set a new record for the largest audience ever drawn by a single K-pop tour. Fans on the Korean online forum theqoo celebrated the milestone, with many praising the group for completely filling the 60,000-seat SoFi Stadium two nights in a row, a feat previously accomplished only by BTS among K-pop idols.
