Overview
- Netflix, which announced the partnership Wednesday at its Upfront, is teaming with AEG Presents on a global concert tour and has opened a waitlist at kpopdemonhunterslive.com.
- Dates, cities, and ticket plans are not public yet, and several outlets report a 2027 rollout and a large city count that Netflix has not confirmed.
- The company has not said whether the film’s singers EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami will perform, and earlier Bloomberg reporting said Netflix weighed virtual performers or holograms.
- AEG Presents promotes arena-scale K-pop tours for acts like Blackpink and TXT, which points to a large production that can translate animated characters to a live stage.
- The tour follows the film’s awards run and a multiyear deal with directors Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans, who are developing a sequel and are expected to consult on the live show.
