IVE to Expand “SHOW WHAT I AM” World Tour to North America and Asia: ‘We Can’t Wait’

IVE is broadening the horizons of their global trek. In an exclusive update shared with Billboard this Wednesday (March 25), the K-pop sensation confirmed that their <SHOW WHAT I AM> world tour will now grace several major cities across North America and include additional stops across Asia.

Following the conclusion of their scheduled dates in Asia, Australia, and New Zealand, the six-member powerhouse—comprising An Yujin, Gaeul, Rei, Jang Wonyoung, Liz, and Leeseo—will shift their focus to the West. Their North American leg is slated to commence in late July, moving through Canadian hubs like Toronto and Montreal before descending into the United States. Fans in New Jersey, Texas, California, and Washington can expect high-energy performances before the group returns north for a final Canadian stop in Vancouver, B.C.

Come September, the group will pivot back to Asia to fulfill highly anticipated engagements in Hong Kong and Taiwan as originally mapped out.

Speaking on the expansion, the group expressed their collective enthusiasm: “Connecting with our international fans through this tour is a dream come true.” They noted that extensive preparation went into showcasing their artistic evolution. “We’ve poured our hearts into presenting our unique identity, and we’re eager to share that growth in person,” the members added. “The setlist features live versions of our latest hits from REVIVE+, and we’ve each curated a special solo segment to reveal sides of us our fans might not expect. We are looking forward to it immensely!”

This expansion follows the February release of their 12-track project, REVIVE+, which soared to No. 3 on the Billboard World Albums chart. This marked a major milestone for the group, arriving nearly a year after their 2023 full-length debut, I’ve IVE. The commercial demand for the <SHOW WHAT I AM> tour remains sky-high; the group’s previous outings were among the most lucrative in the genre, generating over $10.8 million from just ten performances according to Billboard Boxscore data.
