'K-Pop Demon Hunters,' the highest-grossing animated film in Netflix history, is being summoned into the real world as a global concert tour.

On the 13th (local time), Netflix officially announced at its 2026 Upfront event in New York that it will launch the 'K-Pop Demon Hunters' global concert tour in partnership with AEG Presents, the world's largest live entertainment company. Amy Linehard, Netflix's head of advertising sales, explained the significance of the tour announcement: "No other work has captured global attention like 'K-Pop Demon Hunters.' From group singing, Halloween costumes, chants at the US Open and Buckingham Palace, to a 25% surge in flight bookings to Korea. It remains the most popular film on Netflix today."

'K-Pop Demon Hunters' surpassed 325.1 million views within just 91 days of its release on Netflix in June 2025, securing the position of the most-watched English-language film in Netflix history. It also earned $24.7 million through theatrical release. At this year's Academy Awards, it won two awards, including Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song for its theme song 'Golden,' taking home the double crown. 'Golden' is also the first K-Pop song to be nominated for a Grammy Award in the Visual Media category. A sequel has already been confirmed.

The core of this tour is to bring the arena-level performances of the fictional K-Pop girl group HUNTR/X from the movie to real stages. However, it has not yet been confirmed whether EJAE, Audrey Nuna, Rei Ami, who provided the vocals for HUNTR/X's songs, and the Lion Boys vocalists will appear directly. AEG is a production company that has successfully organized numerous major K-Pop tours, including those by BLACKPINK, Jennie, G-Dragon, ATEEZ, and LE SSERAFIM. Specific tour cities, schedules, and ticket release dates will be announced separately later this year, and pre-registration for the tour is currently being accepted.
