Seventeen ranked No. 1 on Pollstar’s latest Asia touring chart after generating $97.4 million in tour revenue across the region.
According to data released by the US concert industry publication, the group topped Asia Focus Charts: Top Touring Artists, which covers the period from Aug. 1, 2025 to July 31, 2026. The group also ranked second on the same Pollstar chart in 2025, behind British band Coldplay.
Pollstar said Seventeen sold 661,088 tickets during the period, generating $97.39 million in revenue.
Much of the sales came from the group’s “New_” world tour, which began in September 2025 and wrapped up in April this year. The tour included stadium shows in Incheon, Hong Kong, Singapore, Bangkok and Bulacan, the Philippines.
The group also held four sold-out shows at Kai Tak Stadium in Hong Kong, becoming the first K-pop act to perform four times at the venue, according to Pledis Entertainment.
Including stops at Vantelin Dome Nagoya, Kyocera Dome Osaka, Tokyo Dome and Mizuho PayPay Dome Fukuoka in Japan, Seventeen held up to 22 concerts at major stadiums and domes across Asia.
Between May and June, Seventeen also drew around 238,000 fans through fan meetings held at Kyocera Dome Osaka, Tokyo Dome and Incheon Asiad Main Stadium, marked as the group’s last major collective event before the members’ mandatory military enlistment.
Seventeen’s group activities have continued at a minimized scale as some members remain absent due to military service. Though Jeonghan was discharged in June, Wonwoo, Woozi, Hoshi, Vernon, DK and Mingyu are currently serving, while members Seungkwan and Dino are expected to enlist on Oct. 26.
The remaining bandmates have continued with solo or unit projects, including Jeonghan and Joshua, who released their first EP “Dreamscape” on Monday. The duo is set to hold their “Journey Into (Dreaming)” concert across six cities in Korea and overseas, starting with Inspire Arena in Incheon from Oct. 30 to Nov. 1.
Other Seventeen subunits and members, including Hoshi and Woozi, S.Coups and Mingyu, DK and Seungkwan, Vernon and The8 and Dino, have also held standalone concerts in Korea and other Asian markets over the past year.
