29 May BABYMONSTER Choom-Tour 2026: Start in Seoul, Europe Still Undecided
5:40 min read
BABYMONSTER are heading out on their second world tour. On 26 June 2026, the Choom Tour kicks off with three nights in Seoul, followed by stops across Asia and Oceania. Europe and the Americas are still missing from the schedule-but that’s precisely what makes the next few weeks so exciting for YG’s newest act to watch.

What we already know about the Choom World Tour
YG Entertainment is thinking big with BABYMONSTER. The Choom World Tour is only the group’s second outing, yet it’s been conceived from day one as a global rollout. The curtain-raiser runs from 26–28 June at Seoul’s Jamsil Indoor Stadium-three back-to-back nights, a clear statement of intent.
From there, the route cuts across Asia and Oceania. On the provisional list: multiple cities in Japan, plus Manila, Macau, Jakarta, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Taipei, Singapore, Auckland, Melbourne, Sydney and Hong Kong. It’s a packed itinerary that underscores how hot the act is in those markets already.
For fans in the German-speaking world, patience is still the watchword. YG has hinted at dates for Europe, North America and South America, but nothing is locked in yet. Keep an eye on the official channels if you’re planning ahead. For a look at how other artists structure their tour economies, check out our piece on Madison Beer’s Locket Tour.
The album behind the tour
A tour needs a reason, and that reason is called Choom. The third mini-album dropped on 4 May 2026 and is BABYMONSTER’s first release of the year. The title says it all: Choom comes from the Korean word for dance and signals a show built entirely around choreography and stage presence.
Musically, the EP delivers four tracks: the title cut Choom, plus Moon, I Like It and Locked In. The lead single is a hip-hop dance number driven by a catchy synth riff and punchy bass. I Like It brings brighter, fresher energy, while Locked In reveals the group’s harder edge.
Streaming numbers back up the concept. The title track quickly racked up millions of streams on Spotify, a signal that pushes BABYMONSTER to the front of the packed K-pop calendar.

Why BABYMONSTER is YG’s next big card
Since BLACKPINK’s constant presence ended, YG Entertainment has been hunting for the next global girl act. BABYMONSTER is that bet. The group was built over years, through a publicly staged casting process and a sound deliberately echoing the label’s proven formula.
What sets BABYMONSTER apart from many rookies is the pace. Within a short time they’ve already locked in a second world tour and multiple chart-topping releases. That speed is risky-it demands a lot from young artists-but it keeps the group in the headlines. You’ll find a similar playbook with LE SSERAFIM and PUREFLOW.
Compared with aespa’s album blitz with LEMONADE, BABYMONSTER is doubling down on the live circuit. If you’re mapping the group’s path, watch both lanes: here the studio statement, there the stage.
What you can do as a fan right now
Even without a European tour date, now’s the perfect time to dive in. The Choom EP is the best starting point to get a feel for the group’s current sound before the tour machine really revs up. Four tracks, four moods-all in under half an hour.
If you’re hoping for a show nearby, subscribe to YG’s official channels and the tour’s feeds; extra dates for in-demand K-pop acts often pop up suddenly and sell out fast. Until then: listen, drill the choreography from the music videos, and see if BABYMONSTER makes the leap from rookie hope to permanent fixture.
