Stray Kids' current activity: dominATE World tour
Stray Kids’ Bang Chan, Lee Know, Changbin, Hyunjin, Han, Felix, Seungmin and IN are currently entertaining fans through their energetic stage performances in the dominATE World Tour. It launched on May 24 at Seattle's T-Mobile Park, where the group made history as the first K-pop act to sell out the stadium. They will perform a total of 13 shows across 10 North American cities, with a stop in San Francisco scheduled for May 28.
The tour is projected to attract a record-breaking 2.2 million attendees, potentially making it the largest K-pop tour in terms of audience size for a single run, as per K-en News. Among their latest notable accolades is last year's American Music Awards (AMAs) for the Favorite Soundtrack award. They secured it for their contribution to the Arcane Season 2 soundtrack album, which included their hit single Come Play, released in October 2024.
