When BLACKPINK, accompanied by an exuberant crowd of 78,000 screaming fans, converged upon one of the world's most renowned stadiums, an unforgettable evening was born—an evening that London will cherish for years to come. This four-member band, comprising the talented Jisoo, Jennie, Rose, and Lisa, attained a historic milestone unprecedented in K-pop girl group history: headlining Wembley Stadium. And not just for a fleeting night, but through two consecutive sold-out performances that transformed this legendary venue into a mesmerizing pink-hued marvel.
BLACKPINK joined the illustrious ranks of legends such as Michael Jackson, Taylor Swift, BTS, and Oasis, illuminating Wembley with a breathtaking two-and-a-half-hour spectacle, a symphony of lasers, pyrotechnics, and boundless energy. Their high-energy setlist reverberated with global anthems like "Kill This Love," "Shut Down," "How You Like That," and "Pink Venom," each met with deafening cheers that echoed through the stadium.
This milestone event marked BLACKPINK as the first K-pop girl group to ever headline this iconic London venue, serving as the grand finale of their European leg on the Deadline world tour. While BTS previously claimed the honor of being the first K-pop act to headline Wembley in 2019, BLACKPINK has now secured their place in history as the inaugural K-pop girl group to achieve this feat.
