K-pop group Stray Kids has set a new benchmark for the genre’s live business. Data compiled by Billboard and Touring Data show the eight-member act’s 54-date dominATE World Tour, which concluded on 30 July, sold about 2.15 million tickets and grossed an estimated $260 million. The run, which spanned five continents from August 2024, is now the largest K-pop tour on record in both attendance and revenue, eclipsing previous marks for any male artist in the sector. Separately, The Weeknd capped his three-year After Hours Til Dawn trek with a sixth headline date at Toronto’s Rogers Centre, the most by a male solo performer—and any Canadian artist—in the venue’s history. The Toronto-born singer, who recently received the key to his hometown, drew roughly 220,000 fans across four sold-out shows this week alone, each staged in the 55,000-seat stadium. The final concert doubled as a career retrospective for Abel Tesfaye as he prepares to retire his Weeknd stage name after a 15-year run of chart success.
