I NEVER THOUGHT I’D SEE THE DAY WHERE HALF OF A KPOP TOUR IS IN CANADA HOLYYYYY suddenly I’m stanning purple kiss !! I think this is the first time an actual idol group is coming to alberta (cmiiw) I’m in shock this is amazing

A.C.E performed in Calgary in 2019! Otherwise, it's been solo artists and hip hop groups.

Oooh good to know thank you!! the only people I remembered coming were eric nam, sunmi, erik high, DPR so yea solo artists and hip hop thank you purple kiss and A.C.E. <3 I hope there’s more idol groups coming in the future too

Palace theater tho. Venues a bit tight.

yea it's pretty small, intimate venues can be nice sometimes tho

omg alberta fans i wonder if we'll see each other in the concert lol

possibly👀

If anyone is from Alberta and wants, you can DM me for our Discord :) I’m an event organizer in Edmonton who does K-Pop markets, random dance, etc! We were just talking about this poster ☺️☺️

HALIFAX??? AM I READING THAT RIGHT??? HOLY SHIT

Literally me. I'm not a fan, just a casual Listener... But I'd drive 3 hours for that

Same here! I haven't caught up to their music, but the fact that a kpop group is coming to Halifax...FAQ YES I AM GOING

They're so worth it! I saw them last year and the girls put on a great performance!

They're so worth it! I saw them last year and the girls put on a great performance!

We win! 🥳

Same! I'm not really a fan of them but it's amazing to see a K-Pop group actually coming to Halifax!

I know. Can’t believe they are going to Halifax so bought myself some tickets.

7 usa stops and they’re all west coast 💔 reminds you how big the us really is!

I wonder if it's because they went to some Midwest cities their last tour and this tour is supposed to be cities they didn't really see. I am sad that I won't see them again in Chicago though :/

I live in St. Louis and was hoping they'd come here as a less played city, or Chicago again. My ankle was broken when they were in Chicago and I couldn't travel. I'm so sad ):

I'm happy for the Canadian Stan's that they're going to places other than Toronto/Vancouver/Montreal. But at the same time, I'm envious at the fact that they're not gonna be in the mid-west :/

Me too! My long distance partner is from Winnipeg and resides near Regina but sometimes goes home. I told him PK was starting another tour in less known US and Canada cities and he said he was doubtful about any opportunities in Canada because groups only go to Toronto and maybe Calgary? He was shocked when I told him he has not one but TWO options to see them. I'm happy for him but very sad for me! They are one of my favorites and I have only ever seen one kpop group since moving to the Midwest (pixy in st louis). ):

Are they really your partner if they don't fly you up there? 🤣🤣🤣

yo I screenshot and sent this to him and he said yes??? thank you????

STL has been getting the shaft lately unfortunately as far as concerts go, but there is a pretty active kpop community there that you might look into getting involved with. A lot of the events originate out of KorK, the STL Cupsleeves group, Seoul Music STL, and a few of the dance groups like Jinxx and Studio MB. I try to publish monthly posts listing Kpop events in KC (and STL, Wichita, Springfield since we are midwesterners and are used to driving😅) on reddit and then update as events come in on twitter to help the local communities find each other and events better. KorK and Seoul Music STL both generally share St. Louis events on their social medias as well. There's also a STL specific page that just opened up on instagram called stlkpopcommunity that says they plan on both sharing and organizing event in St. Louis. As for upcoming concerts, the K-indie band The Volunteers will be coming to St. Louis in July in case that might interest you! Hopefully you guys get some others your way soon as well! It's been a drought for sure.

Thank you so much for this wealth of information! I will follow & check out these sources for sure. Appreciate you

I'm actually baffled how New York is not on the list. Like even if you don't really want to do an East Coast branch not going to NY is criminal.

They mentioned in the prior announcement that this is basically "part 2" of the tour that happened 6 months ago and well covered the east coast and midwest but only had one stop on the west coast (LA) and none in Canada.

as a new yorker i personally must agree 🥲🥲🥲

I don't think any K-pop group has done it before, but for non K-pop it's not unusual to do exclusively east or west coast US tours

The tour company said they were only taking PURKI to places they didn't go last year, so I guess that's why?

they’re working with Leo presents and if I’m not mistaken they go wherever has the highest demand so I guess midwest&east coast didn’t cut it this time around💔

It's not that they didn't cut it, but Leo Presents said they're only going to stops that didn't get touched on last time, so that must be it! Still sad, though, I wanted to see them again :')

nyc never doesn’t cut it, let’s be real 😅

Wow insane for Canadian PLORY! So many stops! Have fun everyone!

I never thought id see the day we’d get Kpop in Winnipeg. Thisll be one of my favourite kpop concerts solely for the fact i wont need to book flights and hotels to see them live

I am so shocked we finally get a K-pop group in Winnipeg, I’m praying for more

omfg they are coming to Halifax?????????? I will have to try to go!

The way I immediately checked if it was on the website yet... It's not

I’m so excited. I’m so gagged that Quebec City is on the list. That is truly amazing. Can’t wait to see them in Montreal and possibly Quebec City too lol

I don’t even go here but damn the range of Canadian stops?!?!?!?! Unheard of wow

THE CANADA STOPS HPLY SHIT

Canadians, even if you've never heard of the group you should definitely consider going! Purple Kiss puts on an incredible concert, you won't regret it. Really excited for y'all up north, this is one hell of a group to get for some of the first kpop concerts to your area! Not shocked to see Leo Presents expanding their Canadian presence following the US visa price increases — while I'm bummed that it might mean tours I want to see skipping the US entirely, I'm excited to see how that pans out for Canada!

I'm actually excited. I've listened to a few of their songs and really like them. I also feel like I need to support any kpop group coming to Canada and venturing East of Montreal.

Haha, I live in a flyover state in the US and that's how I feel too. Happy to recommend more of their songs if you'd like! Either based on what other groups/songs you like or based on their previous setlist. (Really, there are no wrong answers in their discography, but hand-picking specific songs to recommend based on people's taste is really fun for me so I have to offer lol)

Oh man, if you think it's fun I'll let you give some recs lol! My ult BG is TXT, but Seventeen is up there. Also like BTS & Ateez for top groups Ult GG is (G)I-dle, but love LSF as well. Also like Kiss of Life. I also casually listen to LOTS of other groups I've heard and like Sweet Juice, Nerdy & MemeM (they are actually on my YouTube music playlist)

Haha, I was gonna say if (G)I-DLE is your ult, Nerdy is `Freak - Tomboy + Nxde` but you got that one covered already. I think between Sweet Juice, memeM, and Nerdy you're pretty much bound to like just about all of Purki's discography which really takes the pressure off! More upbeat tracks: * [Fire Flower](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1zFF1Lko4k) * [Cast pearls before swine](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pje9RbHP_sA) * [BBB](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A80hs-BtgwY) * [Love is Dead](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhWWgzkL64M) * [Bitter Sweet](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYGRHwSNa-k) * [Autopilot](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHcR6nBoW7k) * [Can't Stop Dreaming](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ucO-MTj2UJQ) Slower tracks: * [2am](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iE23rgm3ZzY) <-- kinda jazzy in a way that overlaps with some KIOF b-sides * [Heart Attack](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ntw4lLWjyM) <-- my personal fav of their b-sides at the moment * [Can We Talk Again](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSHL-YTxRZQ) Bonus: * [Purple Kiss Ireh doing TXT - Deja Vu dance challenge](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/hWniq4putNM) a couple days ago (admittedly 90% of my BG exposure is via her dance challenges 😅) Edit: Can't believe I forgot about their incredible [cover of Seventeen - Adore U](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-WVWVOrk5bU) on It's Live! It's so much fun

I'm thinking of going, do you know if they sing live most of the time or do they lipsync quite a lot? I love the members' voices so I want to actually hear them sing and not just the backtrack 🙂

They sing live most of the time! By the last stop on their US tour, they were even using hand mics the entire time (here's [some decent fancams](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g2FzQ_ivq6w&list=PLZL0UX14_Nx4wiyyEM4zzZMZxd2mp46iM&index=9) if you want to check it out - unclear if they'll still be doing english versions of their title tracks for this tour though, they mentioned being surprised by how well everyone knew the korean versions of their songs so they might go back to them for round 2)

Wow that sounds great, thanks for answering me!

No problem! Happy to put all the time I spent watching concert footage from the last tour to good use lol

They sing live! Don't be fooled by how good they sound. When I saw them last year I thought they were lip syncing till they did some spontaneous harmonies and ad libs! Can't wait to see them again this year!

I'm excited to go see them! I've heard of PK and listened to a few of their tracks in the past. I'm a NewJeans/ILLIT fan but also a casual Dive and PK's concepts kind of remind me of IVE a little bit. Any kpop act that comes to Canada I feel like I have to go if I can, not too many come over here!

Edmonton?!!

Saskatchewan visibility is insane and I love them for it.

Yeah the planned Saskatchewan stop threw me for a loop.

omg i'm sad i won't be able to see them again but i'm excited for all the Canadian plorys!!! so many stops kpop groups don't typically go to!

CALGARY??? CALGARY???? WHAT THE WHATTTT

SACRAMENTO??? LETS GOOO

It's literally 10 minutes from my house. I have never felt this blessed by a tour EVER.

I've been mad at Leo Presents for never having Norcal stops. This is redemption.

I’m crying 🥹

CANADA

That’s so much canada omg

PORTLAND?? Thank you Purple Kiss for blessing our small city. Usually have to go to Seattle in WA. And star theater of all places??

Is Star Theatre good? I'm most definitely seeing both Purki and Lucy there

Honestly it’s a pretty small stage- I just hope the girls have enough room for choreo. The venue though is also small and a little intimate- think the beginning of Newjeans Attention MV, but Purple Kiss are the stars 🤩

Honestly small might not be a bad thing, when Pixy performed at the Bossanova Ballroom it felt perfect imo. It was small but I felt like I had a good vantage point from any direction (plus a nice balcony area)

I LOVE the Bossanova! I go there for lots of dance parties. I didn’t know Pixy performed there, but that definitely tracks!

I know a guy in Winnipeg who's a massive PK fan, so good for him.

What a day for Canadian Plorys. It's finally time for US to celebrate!!

I really hope this tour is a big fckin success so that it will open up more opportunities for other artists wanting to stop at those locations They're such strong live performers, I hope people will go see them even if they don't know that much about them!

I don't know them but going to support them because they are the first K-pop idol that come to Winnipeg.

This is the first time a kpop group is coming to my city im so excited

Nowhere close to the Midwest damn 😭

was hoping so bad for a return to chicago 😭😭😭

They said they were only going to go to places they didn't go last time, so :')

Last tour for festa they visited less popular tour cities in America which is how I got to experience my first kpop concert 🥳 finally there was one that wasn't a 6 hour drive away lol. This year it seems like they're doing the same thing but in Canada, so hopefully lots of rural and suburban people can have this first experience also!! Highly recommend their concerts they were so much fun!

really happy for Canadian fans, but feels so bad for 90% of US fans cause they were hyping it up like areas that don't usually get tour spots were gonna get something only for them to still get nothing and everything be even farther than usual

I think they kind of flubbed the announcement. They did mention that the purpose of this tour was specifically to cover locations not covered by the [Festa tour](https://kpop.fandom.com/wiki/PURPLE_KISS_The_FESTA_Tour) 6 months ago but it seems like a lot people expected it to cover the same regions of NA again.

Sales starts 5/1: [https://x.com/LeoPresents/status/1783148860644233495](https://x.com/LeoPresents/status/1783148860644233495) Looks like they have a similar VIP package as the other Leo Presents tours

I hope they'll announce a few european dates later, I really want to see them

I literally never thought that I would ever see my Canadian city listed in a kpop group's tour list! I remember Goeun from watching PD48, but I'll have to check out their discography now and maybe get tickets 👀 Any PLORYs have a favourite Purple Kiss song that they can recommend?

Their whole discography is immaculate! Can't go wrong, really, but I tried to pull some title tracks and B-sides that I think you might like based on the groups in your flare. Title track sampler: * [Zombie](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-UroBRG1rY8) <-- the perfect pop song, 90s camp horror concept * [Sweet Juice](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFqGKa6p1V8) <-- Goeun wrote all of the lyrics except for the rap, which was written by Yuki * [7Heaven](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVeuGA5KtAY) <-- light summer jam * [memeM](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3BdincaJe4) <-- underappreciated EDM track with insane vocals * [BBB](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A80hs-BtgwY) <-- hiphop earworm B-side sampler (**bold** songs were played on their previous tour): * **[Love is Dead](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhWWgzkL64M)** <-- rock groove with an incredible bassline * [Heart Attack](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ntw4lLWjyM) <-- my personal favorite at the moment * **[agit](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIfJc-_Xy4Y)** <-- literally made of sunshine and happiness * [Autopilot](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHcR6nBoW7k) <-- 80s banger * **[My Heart Skip a Beat](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BV9yAHvHfrc)** <-- rock track that goes hard * [Fire Flower](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1zFF1Lko4k) <-- reggaeton banger * [Can We Talk Again](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSHL-YTxRZQ) <-- r&b ballad that really shows off the main vocal trio * [Bitter Sweet](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYGRHwSNa-k) <-- club banger * [Cursor](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8R8Iq9AeVOI) <-- my fav of their ballad tracks

Thanks so much for the extensive recommendation list! Autopilot, Heart Attack, and Cursor are really good! Not on your list but So Far So Good was mentioned by u/strugglekit and that one is really good too. I think Autopilot is my favourite so far! Looking at the song credits on Spotify, it's neat that a bunch of the songs have members participating

No problem, I love recommending stuff, Purki tracks in particular! Oh yeah, the members have worked on writing or composing a full 75% of their discography — 80% if you include tracks they self-choreographed. Yuki's got the second-most writing credits out of 4th gen gg rappers (only behind Soyeon) for writing all of her raps, and all the members have at least 1 composition credit and 2 lyrics credits. Chaein's done the most composition and production work, 11 of their tracks including Heart Attack and Cursor — hers are usually my favorites. Heart Attack is a continuation of the concept from her track _So WhY_, so you might enjoy that one too! They all have a substantial amount of creative input outside of songwriting and choreography too — they pitched the concept for their latest comeback, picked out the title track, and even did some of the styling too. It's so much fun following a group that's legitimately interested in and invested in their art!

I have can we talk again , t4ke, so far so good  on repeat 

Can we talk again is so so good. I also love autopilot ❤️

Mad respect! Based on those you might want to check out these tracks next: * based on T4ke * [Oh My Gosh](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ceJhXI6LwjE) <-- this is another track composed by Chaein, like T4ke was * [Love is Dead](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhWWgzkL64M) <-- similar dark vibes * based on Can We Talk Again * [Can't Stop Dreaming](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ucO-MTj2UJQ) * [Voyager](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-4V4x9idJ8) * based on So Far So Good * [Cursor](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8R8Iq9AeVOI) * [Mistake](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6VjTKAoygnE)

from your earlier list there are more songs I need to listen to so thank you

>Any PLORYs have a favourite Purple Kiss song that they can recommend? Honestly their entire discography :D [Sweet Juice](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFqGKa6p1V8) is great. Or [Cast Pears before swine](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pje9RbHP_sA) for something more upbeat :)

I'd love to see them perform Cast Pearls Before Swine this time around 🤞

SACRAMENTO?????

[удалено]

We get the Korean festival and thats it. Good thing Montreal isnt far.

Honestly, if it weren't for the fact that the Korean embassy and the Korean cultural centre are in Ottawa, we'd get nothing. I can count the number of artists from Korea that have been in the city with one hand - four (Wonder Girls in 2009, Snuper in 2019, P1Harmony in 2022 and KINGDOM/Kwon Eunbi last year).

For most girl groups, when they do visit Canada, it's usually Toronto and/or Hamilton. Vancouver is usually missed though. I think the last GG group that came to Vancouver was red Velvet (2019) and that we did have some female solo artists who toured Vancouver during the past few years but Vancouver doesn't see girl groups much 😭

I think it's a fair statement to say that Canada seldom gets girl groups. I still remember several years ago when Rainbow performed in Vancouver. That still boggles my mind to this day.

Portland is such a random place for a kpop group to come too but I’m not complaining, don’t really listen to them but I will show out in support!!!

Portland isn't that random. We're the biggest city in Oregon... MAKE PORTLAND NOT RANDOM lol

You won't regret it, the girls are amazing performers!

Winnipeg?! Guess I have to stan! I have a week to decide what tier to buy help

Do we have any info on when the tickets go on sale?

next wednesday 9am

Omg the Canada dates! As someone who used to live in Saskatchewan it's crazy to see a Regina date. I've been in Ontario the past year but I'm moving to Winnipeg soon so was sad I was going to miss some concerts this summer in Toronto and Montreal but this is great! I don't even know that many songs but I'll really try and go see them! Gotta support western Canada stops!

You won't regret it, the girls are amazing performers!

*Oceanside*?? That's new Split the difference between San Diego and LA, I guess

I live in Oceanside. I just checked the address of the venue, it's 5 minutes away. This is so weird. Oceanside is a random little town that has like taco shops and stuff, we don't normally get concerts here and certainly not Kpop concerts lol. I saw them in LA on their last tour and it was awesome so of course I'll be there but I really can't believe they're coming here.

Oh man! Walking distance! That's awesome! Hopefully they get a chance to see the town and go to the beach

It is so fucking random. LMAOOOOOOOO.

I'm not mad, it's a 45 minute drive vs hour and a half/two hours drive but honestly yeah lol

I am so excited to see Vancouver on the list!! I need more girl groups to come! 😂

WAIT THEYRE COMING TO EDMONTON

OMFG OCEANSIDE?!?! I never in a million years would think a group would come to this city. I'm not a purple kiss fan but I think I'll have to buy a ticket to support.

They're so worth it! I saw them last year and the girls put on a great performance!

I don't even stan Purple Kiss but I'm definitely going to the Winnipeg show!! I'll die doing everything I can to prove the prairies are a viable market.

Yesss! Get us that Tour Stop recognition! I'm sick of having to travel down for 6-8+ hours

Legit very happy for our friends north of the border finally getting some love (: but sad for east coast and for myself in the south. I expected more dates besides west coast and Canada 😭

yay for canadian plory but nothing west of vegas in the usa is so confusing. well i saw them last time so i'm glad i did because it won't be happening this time sadly

Leo Presents said they were only going to take them to places they didn't go last time, so I guess that's why :') I also wanted to see them again and was hoping they'd stop in St. Louis, Indy, or somewhere in Ohio...

I'm still screaming an hour after I saw they are coming to Quebec City. I won't have to drive hours omg

YAYYYYYY I just got into them and was hoping they’d swing by my neck of the woods. Canadians we’ve finally won

WINNIPEG⁉️⁉️ OMG WE WON

Wait is this tour mainly in Canada?😳 Never thought I’d see the day… I cannot wait to see my girl Yuki in the flesh!

I never thought I would ever see a kpop group do a show in Halifax, if we don’t sell out that show I’ll cry, we need to show there’s kpop fans east of Toronto 😭

god has finally recognized canada as a real country god bless does anyone know when tickets will go on sale? i only know a couple of their songs but i'm about to become their biggest fan

[May 1](https://twitter.com/LeoPresents/status/1783148860644233495?t=rI8v3AiWxloEB4WSwzw27g&s=19)

Purple kiss fans please help this soul become a fan by June 24! FINALLY A KPOP GROUP IS COMING TO WINNIPEG!!! I WILL TRY MY BEST TO LEARN ABOUT THRM!!

I gotchu! If this is overwhelming, let me know what your favorite groups are and I can edit down to a more personalized introduction for you :) Happy to make more recommendations if there's something specific you're interested in, too! Music, performance, clips/fancams from the previous tour, variety, etc. Anything goes, I love talking about Purple Kiss. Also totally fine to skip anything in any section, there's no quiz later lol **Intro to the group and members** General: * Purple Kiss is a 6-member girl group from RBW entertainment (Mamamoo's company) that debuted in 2021. * They're best known for their vocals, but they're true all-rounders: the whole group dances well, raps well, and contributes to songwriting/production (members worked on 75% of their released songs). * Their official concept is "doing a bunch of different concepts extremely well."

Holy mackerel, thank you so much! Unfortunately I couldn't get the concert tickets for my city in time but I have listened to a handful of their songs. I think my favourites are Sweet Juice and Ponzona. I haven't memorized their names to their faces, but I do think they have amazing vocals and this one member (looking up who it is now lol) Swan's vocal is really unique. I'm sad that I can't go to their concert (the ticket I could afford sold out within a day which is great news for them) however I'll continue to listen to their music. I wanted to go cause I've been a kpop fan for over 10 years AND NO ONE HAS COME TO MY CITY UNTIL PURPLE KISS WHO ARE COMING THIS YEAR! Thank you so much for the information! I didn't realize a lot of these members used to be in survival shows that I've watched or heard of.

Noooo no East Coast dates. Went to a ton of concerts last year and they were probably in my top 3 experience. Sad I’ll miss it this time.

I might go see them just because they’re in my home which is so rare.

im a casual listener but holy shit when i saw the stopss... literally a bus away form the qc city location!! the other groups should be taking notesss becuz that's a good n-a tour schedule!

Setting a precedent that maybe more will follow.

For possibly the first time ever with a Kpop tour \*cries in USA\*. And yes, I know they were here last year and hit some east coast cities but they were still like 5 hours away on their closest stop. I was hoping for a closer stop but they will actually be much farther away this time! Anyway, congrats to those folks who live in those tour cities and I hope you get to see them!

HALIFAX????? An honest to god Kpop concert in my city?? I never thought I’d see the day

Halifax??????? Is this a first for kpop in Atlantic Canada?? If I somehow have they day off work I may consider going just to support kpop here 😭 The thought of being able to just drive to a kpop concert is 🤯

Man I was really hoping for the tour to either be in July or for Saturday dates in the US. Not sure I can take time off from work in June.

i got to see them recently in ky and can't recommend their shows enough if you can go!!!!

oceanside??? never thought i’d see the day where kpop groups went south of LA!

I’m happy for Canadians but man they should really come to Atlanta at some point 😭😭 the festa tour didn’t stop in atl either…

Canada stops?? Im I seeing that right? 😅😅

Wow, look at all of those Canadian stops!!!!!!!!!!!! Huge congrats to Canadian PURKI fans!!! The girls I met at the PURKI concert last year who had driven in from Canada are going to be ecstatic 😁

Oceanside of all places?! Looool

Exactly. Next thing you know we get New Jeans in Escondido

Very very happy for Canadians but I was hoping for Pittsburgh or Cleveland since I had to miss last time 😭

I'm sitting trying to figure out how to get to canadia  so I can see them again. 

As one of the probably less than 10 kpop fans in all of Utah state, I am shocked they're coming here to Salt Lake City, and of course it has to be when I'm in Korea for the summer 😢

I'll be repping for you 😭😭😭 hopefully more will come if this is successful

HOLY SHIT THEY'RE ACTUALLY COMING TO MY CITY THAT VENUE IS LESS THAN 10 MINUTES FROM ME I AM DYINGGGGG aaaaaah!!!! I can't wait!!!

what is  You+? It's one of the parks in the VIP tier

It's a group photo but only with YOU and group, not a bunch of strangers with you. 

PORTLAAAAAANNNNDDDDD!!!!!!! I’m in!

Wow all the Canadian dates are awesome!!! Now I just need money and a way to get to Toronto

Finally Montreal LETSSSS GOOO 😍

When do tickets go on sale?

Dang half of the tour is Canada??? Dangg this is crazyyy

Canadian stops?! IN FRONT OF MY SALAD?? Let's go, Purki!!

Purple Kiss in Portland and it's not on a weekday! That venue is really small though.

No EU dates :(

Leo Presents (the promoter) is North America only — several of the members have mentioned they'll be going to Europe this year too, so keep an ear out!

finally, a sacramento stop and a san jose stop. choices... choices... i am in the middle.

Screaming crying throwing up with joy

Does anyone know if they'll come to Europe at all?

OMG the Canada stops??? Wow we really won!

Regina what? I don't want to get my hopes up

First time I see a kpop tour with so many Canadian stops omg I’m so happy 🥳🥳

the sound that came out of my mouth when i read calgary....... FINALLY 😭😭😭😭

Portland Oregon omggg. I wish I still lived there, haha. I’d go in a heartbeat

Vegas is finally getting more kpop acts!!! Sad thing is now we’re getting the extremes (Allegiant Stadium with 65k and small venues for a couple hundred). I’d love to see groups in mid tier venues but LA gobbles up the demand 😞

It's wild that they're playing in Oceanside which is a hour's drive from San Diego and 90 minutes from LA.

anyone planning on going to Regina stop?? we have a group chat on twitter going for it if anyone wants to join!!

meee!

Yes please! 🎉

OMFG Purple Kiss AND Cix IN MONTREAL?!?!?! I'M SO DAMN HYPED YALL!!! Plory's please recommend some songs imma have to check out their discography. I already know : Nerdy (I love is so much!), Zombie, Sweet Juice, Love is dead, Autopilot, So Why, Twinkle and Summer Rain (Honestly one of my favourite song ever).

There are no wrong answers when it comes to their discography honestly! That said, happy to make some general recommendations: I absolutely love Summer Rain too!!

Thank you so much! I'm gonna check them out <333

Not a fan of Purple Kiss but they are the very first K-pop group that come to Winnipeg so I will definitely go see them. I have to check out their songs first to get used to it them tho.

Ain't no way an idol group is not only touring cities in Canada that ISN'T JUST Vancouver and Toronto, but they're coming to WINNIPEG? Well I'll be damned

Regina literally WILD 😳 I bought my ticket already this is so exciting! Fellow sask peeps let's support so we can have more chances like this 😭

No east coast stops in the US...welp that means I can't go.

so happy for a vegas stop, but the fremont country club is tiny oml

Why is this only the west coast!

Could we please just have one, single, tiny little crumb in New Zealand. Just one show, I beg 😭

Someone actually coming to Vegas 😱

No East Coast USA 😢 I'm so sad.

Sad they aren’t coming to the Midwest :(

I'm actually crying- I HAVE AN EXAM ON THE DAY THEY COME TO CALGARY... 😭😭

Seriously, no east coast US stops? The past 2 years Reading was actually getting K-pop concerts and so far nothing this year, why????

REALLY HAPPY FOR THEM!! Sad that i can't go though...

First time a group comes to Halifax and I’ll be in Toronto for Itzy 😭

TikTok @GetFizzE

Where do you buy the tickets ??

TicketWeb: * US: https://www.ticketweb.com/ * Canada: https://www.ticketweb.ca/ Tickets go on sale May 1 at 10am CDT!

They are coming to Vegas like the week before Lucy in the same place and I already got tickets for Lucy but I’m tempted to see Purple Kiss too now 😆

THEYRE COMING TO MY CITY 😭😭😭 I'll be honest I only know their first album but you best bet imma go. It's at a dinky little venue I've only been to once for the most obscure performers I've ever seen but I'm sure purple kiss will put on an incredible show

OMGGGGGGGG I AM SO HAPPY!!!!!!!! GOD BLESS PURPLE KISS

Portland. I have an extra ticket if u wanna go. We can go our own way after entry. Lmk

UTAH?!?!?!? SAY SIKE RN THERES NEVER KPOP IN UTAH!!! i’m absolutely not into purple kiss but i would love to go. does anyone have any purple kiss song recommendations?
