Twice’s fifth world tour, “TWICE 5TH WORLD TOUR ‘READY TO BE’ in JAPAN SPECIAL,” recently concluded with solo performances on July 27 and 28 at Nissan Stadium in Kanagawa, Japan.

These concerts marked a historic moment, as Twice became the first overseas female artist to perform at this venue. Over a span of 15 months, the tour garnered significant success and attracted approximately 1.5 million fans worldwide.

The tour kicked off in April 2023 at KSPO Dome in Seoul. In May, the group made their first performances in Australia, selling out all four performances in Sydney and Melbourne.

In June and July, Twice achieved a milestone by becoming the first female group to headline major stadiums in the United States, including SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles and MetLife Stadium in New York, both of which sold out, solidifying their status as global stadium headliners.
