Girl group TWICE will be embarking on a new world tour titled “THIS IS FOR” in July, with a scale of “all venues fully open 360 degrees.”

On the 9th at midnight, JYP Entertainment released the poster and teaser video for ‘TWICE 〈 THIS IS FOR 〉 WORLD TOUR’ on TWICE’s official SNS channel and announced the holding of their sixth world tour.Last July, TWICE marked the first time for a foreign female artist to enter the Nissan Stadium in Kanagawa, Japan, and concluded their fifth world tour ‘READY TO BE’.With a total of 51 performances in 27 regions for their tour ‘READY TO BE’, they mobilized 1.5 million audiences and became the first female group in the world to enter the SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles and the MetLife Stadium in New York, which sold out, thereby shining a light on their presence as ‘stadium artists’.

According to JYP Entertainment, TWICE’s new world tour “THIS IS FOR, “ which will be held for the first time in about a year, is expected to be an unprecedented tour as all of the seats at the concert venues will be open 360 degrees and the boundaries between the stage and the audience will be broken down, creating a next-level performance.Through the omnidirectional stage with no specific front of the stage, the audience will be able to watch TWICE’s performance in a three-dimensional and vivid way.

This Twice world tour will be attended by world-renowned multimedia creative studio Moment Factory.Moment Factory is a leader in stage production within the music industry, having collaborated with global artists such as Olivia Rodrigo, Billie Eilish, Ed Sheeran, Madonna, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and U2.

According to the poster for their sixth world tour, TWICE will kick off their sixth tour at Incheon Inspire Arena on July 19th and 20th, followed by Osaka on the 26th and 27th(local time), Aichi on August 23rd and 24th, Fukuoka on the 30th and 31st, Tokyo on September 16th and 17th, Macau on the 27th and 28th, Bulacan on October 4th, Singapore on the 11th and 12th, Sydney on November 1st and 2nd, Melbourne on the 8th and 9th, Kaohsiung on the 22nd, Hong Kong on December 6th, and Bangkok on the 13th and 14th.The phrase ‘MORE SHOWS WILL BE REVEALED SOON’ was added to the poster, signaling that additional locations will be announced.

The teaser video heightened the anticipation for the concert by containing various stage scenes worthy of TWICE’s reputation of ‘moving once with the eyes and once with the ears’.Not only the explosive performance on the largest-scale stage ever, but also the solo stages that showed the charms of each of the nine members, Nayeon, Jeongyeon, Momo, Sana, Jihyo, Mina, Dahyun, Chaeyoung, and Tzuyu, the excitement of the crowd that filled the large stadium, and TWICE’s energetic appearance as they became one with the audience, will give thrilling thrills.
