K-pop sensation ATEEZ is set to expand its European tour, adding two more concerts in London and Berlin, bringing the total to 14 performances across the continent, KQ Entertainment announced on Thursday. Initially, the eight-member group planned to visit nine countries for 12 shows as part of their "Towards the Light: Will to Power" tour. The decision to add more dates highlights the growing demand for their performances in Europe.
The European leg of the tour is scheduled to resume in January 2024 in France, following a successful run in North America earlier this year. Over the summer, ATEEZ captivated audiences in 10 cities across the United States and Canada, further cementing their status as one of the most dynamic live acts in K-pop.
Adding to their recent achievements, ATEEZ released their fourth Japanese single album, "Birthday," on October 2, which quickly climbed the charts. The album secured the No. 2 and 3 spots on Oricon’s Daily and Weekly Single Rankings, respectively, a testament to the group's growing international fanbase. The prerelease track "Royal," a collaboration with Japanese boy band Be , also made waves by topping the Weekly Digital Single Ranking.
ATEEZ's relentless momentum in the music industry is not limited to Japan. The group's 10th EP, "Golden Hour: Part 1," released in May, debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200, one of the most competitive music charts in the world. The album maintained its presence on the chart for seven consecutive weeks, marking the longest streak for the group to date.
The tour expansion is seen as a response to the overwhelming support from their European fans, who have eagerly awaited more opportunities to see ATEEZ perform live. The additional shows in London and Berlin are expected to draw massive crowds, as the group’s global fanbase continues to grow.
ATEEZ's ability to captivate audiences with their high-energy performances and diverse musical styles has set them apart in the highly competitive K-pop landscape. With a discography that blends elements of hip-hop, pop, and electronic dance music, the group has consistently pushed creative boundaries while staying true to their roots.
Industry insiders note that ATEEZ's strategic moves, including collaborations with international artists and expanding their tour footprint, signal their intention to solidify their position as global influencers in the music scene. Their collaborations with artists from different genres and regions have opened up new avenues for growth and expanded their reach beyond the traditional K-pop audience.
The group's commitment to connecting with fans worldwide is evident not only in their music but also in their dynamic live shows that often include elaborate choreography, stunning visuals, and powerful vocals. As they prepare for the next leg of their tour, expectations are high that ATEEZ will continue to break new ground and set higher standards in the global music industry.
