After a nearly decade-long hiatus from the stage together, K-pop juggernauts BigBang are officially back—and they’re bringing their milestone world tour to Singapore’s National Stadium at The Kallang on October 17, 2026.
The iconic trio—G-Dragon, Taeyang, and Daesung—announced XX: Cosmos, a sprawling 31-date global trek celebrating two decades since their 2006 debut. The tour kicks off with three nights at Goyang Stadium in South Korea from August 21 to 23 before crisscrossing Asia, North America, Europe, and Australia. Stops include Taipei, Hanoi, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta, and Kaohsiung, marking the group’s first joint tour since 2017 and one of the year’s most anticipated live music events.
For anyone who came of age in the 2000s, BigBang was more than a band—they were a cultural force. Since bursting onto the scene, the group helped define modern K-pop, blending hip-hop, electronic, and R&B influences into a signature sound that reshaped the genre. Tracks like “Lie,” “Haru Haru,” “Fantastic Baby,” and “Bang Bang Bang” remain anthems, and their influence extended beyond music into fashion, entertainment, and pop culture at large.
The tour announcement follows the release of “Still Life” in 2022, the group’s first new music in four years, which Billboard named one of the best K-pop songs of that year.

Broader Impact
BigBang’s return isn’t just a nostalgic reunion—it signals a larger moment for K-pop’s elder generation. With the genre now a global behemoth, the tour underscores how its pioneers continue to draw stadium-sized crowds nearly two decades into their careers. For fans in Singapore, the October date at The Kallang offers a rare chance to see three of K-pop’s most influential artists on one stage, performing hits that defined an era.
For those who missed them the first time—or want to relive the magic—this tour may be the last of its kind for a while.
