A Historic Full-Group Return After Nine Years

As the definitive leader, main rapper, and creative mastermind behind BIGBANG, G-Dragon has historically been the primary individual responsible for shaping the group’s unique musical direction, boundary-pushing concepts, and multi-platinum discography. This newly announced tour holds an incredibly profound emotional meaning for both music critics and the group’s global fanbase, V.I.P, because it officially marks the very first time in approximately nine years that the legendary group will hit the road together for a full-scale, full-group live concert series.

The grand anniversary tour is scheduled to officially kick off its massive global journey this coming August 2026. According to the initial scheduling posters, the members will open the tour with an explosive weekend of performances in Goyang City, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea, before systematically expanding the tour route to include various major international territories and capital cities across the globe throughout the remainder of the year.

Dominating Pop Culture From Stadium Stages to Beauty Technology

Beyond his highly anticipated return to the concert stage, G-Dragon continues to prove his unmatched commercial influence across the global lifestyle market through unique business partnerships. Most recently, the fashion icon made major headlines in the technology sector by collaborating with global medical tech firm APR and their premium skincare brand, Medicube Age-R.

The partnership resulted in the highly publicized launch of the “Booster Pro X2: ZO&FRIENDS Edition,” a highly sought-after, limited-edition beauty device. The tech product prominently features the adorable animated characters from “ZO&FRIENDS” (조앤프렌즈) a whimsical lifestyle and character brand originally created and developed as a collaborative intellectual property project between G-Dragon and global creative studio IPX (formerly Line Friends). The characters, which include a lazy grey cat named “Zoa” inspired by G-Dragon’s real-life pet feline, have allowed the musician to extend his distinct creative vision far beyond music and into the realms of daily skincare and high-end lifestyle design.

As news of the 20th-anniversary stadium tour continues to dominate trending topics worldwide, international music communities are expressing overwhelming excitement over the rare opportunity to see the boundary-pushing group perform their timeless hits live on stage once more. With the opening dates in Goyang quickly approaching, all eyes are currently focused on the group to see how this historic tour will expand across the globe to celebrate two decades of musical excellence.
