Background and production

On June 9, 2025, JYP Entertainment announced that Twice would embark on their sixth world tour, with 23 initial tour dates in 13 cities.[1] On August 27, a second show was added in Kaohsiung due to high demand.[2][3] An additional show in Kuala Lumpur was announced on August 28.[4] After the second concert in Tokyo on September 17, it was announced that Twice will continue the Japan leg of their world tour in Spring 2026.[5] On September 18, a second show was added in Hong Kong.[6] On October 1, the second part of the tour was announced, including North American and European legs and a stop in Taipei, starting with a show in Vancouver, Canada, in January 2026.[7] Additional shows in London and North America were added on October 9,[8] and a further ten shows were added on October 12, including a new stop in Turin.[9] At the second concert in Kaohsiung on November 23, an additional show in Taipei was announced.[10] On December 4, a third show in Taipei was added after all tickets sold out.[11] On December 7, three concerts at the Japan National Stadium were announced.[12]

Twice collaborated with Moment Factory for the stage design, with all venues utilizing a 360-degree stage setup to "create a more immersive concert experience".[13][14][15] Moment Factory has collaborated with global artists like Olivia Rodrigo, Billie Eilish, Ed Sheeran, Madonna, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and U2. The show director, Mukhtar O.S. Mukhtar, worked with Kendrick Lamar and Usher on their Super Bowl halftime show performances.[13] On June 24, 2025, lyric videos were released of the members' new solo songs for the tour.[16][17] Full versions of these songs were released as part of the album Ten: The Story Goes On on October 10.[18]

Reception

The tour received generally positive reviews from critics, who highlighted the tour's large-scale production and the group's sustained performance quality. PEP.ph described the Philippine Arena concert as a "dazzling, high-energy show", noting that the 360-degree stage design created a "vast sea of lightsticks" and enhanced audience immersion.[19] Billboard Philippines reported strong crowd engagement at the group's Bulacan performance, citing extensive fan participation and positive audience response despite Jeongyeon's absence due to health concerns.[20] The Daily Tribune praised the "stunning" stage design and the setlist, calling the Philippine Arena show a "once-in-a-lifetime experience".[21] ABS-CBN News described the concert as a "dazzling feast for the senses", highlighting the production's 360-degree stage, moving platforms, and live band.[22] The Straits Times highlighted the elaborate stage design and Twice's commanding performance.[23]

Commercial performance

The tour achieved significant commercial success, becoming one of Twice's highest-grossing concert tours. According to box-office data submitted to Pollstar, the first 24 reported shows sold 671,888 tickets and generated $93.8 million in gross revenue, averaging 27,995 attendees and $3.9 million per show.[9] In Oceania, the tour achieved record-breaking sales, selling over 50,000 tickets across four arena performances in Sydney and Melbourne, making it the best-selling K-pop arena tour in the region to date.[24]

The tour's Kaohsiung stops marked the first time that Twice performed in Taiwan.[25] The two-day concert reportedly generated over NT$500 million (US$15.9 million) in tourism-related revenue for the city. The event increased pressure on urban infrastructure, and ridership on the Saturday of the concert weekend resulted in the city's metro system recording 350,000 riders, its highest single-day ridership of the year. Local businesses extended hours and reported significantly increased traffic and sales.[26][27]

Twice is set to become the first foreign artist to headline a concert at the Japan National Stadium, with the three shows expected to have a total audience of 240,000.[28]
