A BigBang world tour in the year 2026? Wow, fantastic baby.
The legendary K-pop group, comprising current members Taeyang, G-Dragon and Daesung, announced a new world tour during their weekend two set at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival Sunday night. The tour will be in honor of BigBang’s 20th anniversary as group, which they’re celebrating in 2026.
As the group said their goodbyes to the massive crowd gathered at the festival’s Outdoor stage, they teased that Coachella was the beginning point for a new chapter. Daesung promised that the festival wasn’t just a comeback for BigBang but a “reset” for the group. G-Dragon then announced that they’d be embarking on a 20th anniversary tour later this year.
Though few details are known about the upcoming tour, G-Dragon promised the crowd it would be begin this August. The rapper didn’t clarify where the tour would kick off, but nearly all K-pop tours begin in Seoul, or a surrounding city in South Korea, so it’s a safe bet BigBang’s will also.
“Do not miss out, and stay tuned,” G-Dragon told the crowd. After the announcement, the three men performed their song “Still Life” to close out their time at the festival.
BigBang was one of the final acts of the desert-set musical festival, taking the stage after Karol G’s headlining set began at the nearby Coachella main stage. The group kicked off their set with a pair of iconic songs, “Bang Bang Bang” and “Fantastic Baby.”
The set featured a slew of hits and fan favorites, even adding their single “Bae Bae” for weekend two. Coachella marks the first performance of the song in nearly a decade. Each member of BigBang performed a solo song during the set; Taeyang and G-Dragon also performed their legendary duet “Good Boy,” meanwhile Daesung brought the Korean pop genre trot to the Coachella stage.
More details to come.
