TORONTO — Stray Kids became the first act ever to perform at the newly opened Rogers Centre in Toronto on Sunday, concluding the North American leg of their “dominATE” world tour with a sold-out performance in front of 50,000 fans, according to JYP Entertainment.
The milestone concert marked the finale of the group’s 13-show run across 10 cities in North America, which began on May 24 in Seattle. The band opened the Toronto show with their 2024 hit “Mountains,” delivering a high-energy setlist featuring fan-favorite tracks, unit performances, and selections from their digital single Mixtape: dominATE.
“We’re so happy to close the North American tour here in Toronto,” said the group on stage. “We could feel the love from so many fans — thank you for lighting up the night with us.”
Throughout the tour, Stray Kids made history by becoming the first K-pop act to headline major stadiums including Seattle’s T-Mobile Park, Orlando’s Camping World Stadium, Washington’s Nationals Park, Chicago’s Wrigley Field, and Toronto’s Rogers Centre. The group also achieved another K-pop first with two consecutive performances at Arlington’s Globe Life Field.
In celebration of the group’s achievements, iconic landmarks such as New York’s Empire State Building and Chicago’s Willis Tower were illuminated in Stray Kids’ signature red, further signifying their growing global influence.
Stray Kids will next head to Europe to begin their first-ever European stadium tour, which kicks off on July 11 at the Johan Cruyff Arena in Amsterdam. The group is set to perform eight shows across six cities throughout the region.
