Netflix and AEG Presents have announced the Golden World Tour, an international arena production inspired by the hit animated movie KPop Demon Hunters. The tour begins in June 2027, with North American performances scheduled first, followed by the United Kingdom and Europe in the fall.

The production will visit nearly 50 cities and feature more than 150 performances throughout 2027 and 2028. Additional dates in Asia-Pacific and Latin America will be announced later.

General ticket sales begin November 20, 2026, at 10 a.m. local time. Mastercard presales start November 18, followed by a special For the Fans presale on November 19, with VIP packages also available.

Who Will Perform, and Is the Tour Family-Friendly?

The show will bring animated girl group HUNTR/X, featuring Rumi, Mira and Zoey, to life alongside their rivals, the Saja Boys. Derpy Tiger will also make an appearance, with live-action performers, animation, special effects and audience participation helping recreate the movie’s supernatural world.

Rather than a traditional concert featuring only singers performing onstage, the production combines live-action stunts, choreography and animated characters. The official tour description promises a production that “immerses fans in the storytelling,” allowing audiences to participate in the adventure.

Parents will be pleased to know that organizers have explicitly confirmed the event is designed for all ages. However, families should check individual venue information for seating, accessibility, and any age-related ticket requirements.

What Do We Know About ‘KPop Demon Hunters 2’?

Fans also have a sequel to anticipate, with Netflix and Sony Pictures Animation confirming that KPop Demon Hunters 2 is in development. Directors Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans are returning, although specific plot details, casting announcements, and an official release date have not been revealed.

There is also exciting news for fans who want to see the sequel on the big screen. Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos confirmed that audiences can expect a “very broad theatrical release,” representing a change from the original movie’s streaming-first debut.

A 2029 release has been reported as a possibility, but it has not been officially confirmed. Netflix is increasingly looking at theatrical releases for major family entertainment properties, and the success of KPop Demon Hunters makes the sequel a particularly promising candidate.
