K-pop sensation Stray Kids will perform at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, home to English Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur and its star player Son Heung-min, in July next year, to become the first K-pop act to do so, the band’s agency said Tuesday.

JYP Entertainment said the concert, scheduled for July 18, 2025, is part of the group’s expanded “dominATE” world tour.

The agency announced that there will be 20 new concerts across Latin America, North America and Europe.

The tour, which began in Seoul in August, will kick off its Latin American leg in Santiago, Chile, on March 28, 2025, and continue in four other cities, including Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo in Brazil.

The North American leg of the tour will begin in May in Seattle and continue in nine other cities, including San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York and Toronto.

The eight-member group will visit iconic venues, including Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, New York’s Citi Field and Paris’ Stade de France, during the tour.

The band is currently on an Asian tour with plans to visit Manila, Macao and Osaka until early next month.

The group’s tour expansion comes on the heels of its new album, “SKZHOP HIPTAPE – HOP,” set for release Dec. 13.

The album will feature 12 tracks, including the lead track “Walkin On Water” and “U,” featuring Tablo, the leader of K-pop hip-hop group Epik High. (Yonhap)
