Stray Kids has added 23 cities to its ongoing “Run It” world tour, expanding the trek to 46 shows across 31 cities worldwide.
The group announced the additional dates through its official social media channels late Monday, adding stops across Japan, North America and Europe from April through July 2027.
The newly announced leg will begin in Japan with two shows in Yokohama on April 24 and 25, followed by two dates in Osaka on May 4 and 5.
The group will then head to North America for performances in Seattle, Vancouver, British Columbia, and three California cities Santa Clara, San Diego and Los Angeles in May. More performances are scheduled in Arlington, Texas, Houston, Atlanta, Miami, Orlando, Florida, Chicago, Baltimore, Toronto and East Rutherford, New Jersey, in July.
The European leg will begin in Paris on July 9, followed by shows in London, Munich, Vienna, Barcelona, Spain, Arnhem, Netherlands and Milan through July 31.
The latest announcement adds 25 shows across 23 cities to JYP Entertainment’s previous tour notice.
Stray Kids launched the “Run It” world tour in Seoul with five sold-out concerts at Kspo Dome in July and August. The group later performed at Tokyo’s MUFG Stadium, becoming the first overseas male act to hold a solo concert at the venue.
Before Monday’s announcement, the tour comprised 21 shows across nine cities — Seoul, Japan's Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka and Fukuoka, Hong Kong, Taiwan capital Taipei, Bangkok and Singapore.
With the additional schedule, the tour now spans 31 cities and 46 performances, including a number of large stadium venues across North America and Europe.
The expansion follows a busy year for the eight-member boy group.
The group's latest EP, “This & That,” released in August, became Stray Kids’ ninth consecutive album to top the Billboard 200. The album has remained on the chart for 12 consecutive weeks. The group has also appeared at major international festivals recently, including the Governors Ball Music Festival and Rock in Rio.
Earlier this year, Stray Kids also staged five “Straycity” shows across three Latin American cities — Bogota, Colombia, Buenos Aires, Argentina and Mexico City — drawing a combined audience of about 270,000, according to JYP Entertainment.
Meanwhile, Lee Know, the main dancer of Stray Kids, is unlikely to take part in Stray Kids’ newly announced 2027 tour dates, as JYP Entertainment announced Thursday that he will likely begin his military service by March 2027 at the latest. The 28-year-old performer is the eldest of the group's eight members and will be the first to enlist.
