Group Achieves First-Ever Two-Day Sellout and Maximum Attendance Record

BLACKPINK has once again made history in the United States, one of the world's two major music markets, launching their North American tour with a powerful opening statement. The group held "BLACKPINK WORLD TOUR 'DEADLINE' IN LOS ANGELES" at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on July 12th. 

Including the July 13th (local time) performance, BLACKPINK is set to achieve a new record as the first global girl group to sell out two consecutive days at the venue and draw the maximum audience capacity of approximately 100,000 attendees.

When powerful live band sounds filled the stadium, fans' cheers echoed throughout, and BLACKPINK responded with explosive energy, delivering a parade of their hit songs. 

The subsequent solo stages showcasing each member's unique color were absolutely spectacular. Jisoo captivated audiences with her dreamy and lyrical sensibility, while Lisa mesmerized with her charismatic and overwhelming performance. Jennie heated up the atmosphere with her confident attitude and distinctive hip-hop vibes, and Rosé warmed the venue with her delicate vocals and cheerful energy.
