South Korean band BLACKPINK has announced an ‘encore’ extension to their Born Pink North American stadium tour.
So far, the band singers Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa have revealed four additional shows to their sold-out 2022 trek: August 12th at East Rutherford, New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium, August 18th at Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium, August 22nd at San Francisco’s Oracle Park and August 26 at Los Angeles’ Dodger Stadium.
The four venues graced with an additional Blackpink date teased the upcoming shows earlier this week when they gave their Twitter avatars a pink hue, or in the case of Dodger Stadium, bathed the venue in pink light:
On Saturday, Blackpink became both the first girl group and the first K-pop act to headline at Coachella, delivering an almost two-hour-long set of their greatest hits. “This is a dream come true. The reason why all four of us is because all of you.”

The group is known for their powerful performances and catchy pop songs that incorporate various genres such as hip-hop, EDM, and R&B. They have released several hit songs such as “Whistle,” “Boombayah,” “Kill This Love,” and “How You Like That,” among others.
Blackpink has also broken several records, including becoming the first K-pop group to perform at Coachella and the first K-pop group to have a music video with over 1 billion views on YouTube for their hit song “Ddu-Du Ddu-Du.” The group has also collaborated with several international artists, including Lady Gaga, Dua Lipa, and Selena Gomez.
