Stray Kids’ Dominate World Tour Sets Boxscore Records Around the World
Stray Kids played the final show of the Dominate World Tour at Rome’s Stadio Olimpico on July 30. The global trek’s 2025 calendar routed through Latin America, Europe and North America, setting Boxscore records for revenue and attendance in each region.
After tearing through Asia (Seoul, Tokyo, Bangkok and more) and Australia (Melbourne and Sydney) in 2024, Stray Kids played eight shows in Central and South America in March and April. Across shows in Brazil, Chile, Peru and more, the group sold 361,000 tickets and brought in $41.1 million. That’s more than any other K-pop artist has sold or earned in Latin America on a single tour.
Then, the Dominate World Tour came to the United States and Canada for a 13-show sweep that included stadiums in Chicago, Seattle, and Washington, D.C., among others. Stateside, Stray Kids played to 491,000 fans, totaling grossed $76.2 million. Here, it’s the bestselling and highest grossing North American leg of any K-pop tour.
Finally, Stray Kids hit Europe for eight final shows, including performances in London, Madrid and Paris. There, the tour added 391,000 tickets and $64.5 million. Just like the two previous legs, it sets records as the biggest European leg among K-pop acts.
The 2025 shows were the first for Stray Kids in Latin America, and basically its first in Europe. The group had one reported show in Berlin in 2019, which grossed $407,000 and sold 3,435 tickets. On average, the European Dominate shows grossed $8.1 million and sold 48,900 tickets – nearly 20 times the earnings of that show at Verti Music Hall six years ago.
Stray Kids have more extensive touring history in the U.S. and Canada, where the Maniac World Tour earned $29.1 million and sold 209,000 tickets in 2022-23 across two separate legs of shows. With just a year separating the end of one and the beginning of the next, Dominate World Tour doubled that gross and attendance — and then some.
Stray Kids broke attendance and revenue records for Korean artists in Europe, Latin America and North America with 2025’s Dominate World Tour, ultimately multiplying their previous tour’s finals five times over. Altogether, the trek’s 31 reported shows – including two in Hong Kong – sold 1.3 million tickets and grossed $185.9 million.
