Boy group MONSTA X is heading to Japan.

MONSTA X will open its Japan leg of the '2026 MONSTA X WORLD TOUR [THE X : NEXUS]' on the 28th at Lala Arena Tokyo Bay in Chiba, Japan.

Starting with two days of performances in Chiba from the 28th to the 29th, the group will continue its Japan tour with concerts on May 3rd and 4th at Ookin Arena Maishima in Osaka. Local fans are eagerly anticipating the stage, which aims to further elevate the momentum of the world tour that began last year in Seoul.

MONSTA X's world tour 'THE X : NEXUS' is a performance that encapsulates the musical achievements accumulated over the past 11 years. Through a stage that connects the past, present, and future into a single flow, the tour aims to strengthen its bond with MONBEBE, the official fan club name.

This tour, which began with the Seoul concert last year, has continued successfully with performances in Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Taipei, and Jakarta, once again proving MONSTA X's solid live performance skills and unparalleled stage presence. In particular, by completing a richer setlist through a narrative led by hit song medleys and solo stages that highlight each member's capabilities, the group has firmly established its presence on stage and proven itself as an 'artist in the making.'

Last year, MONSTA X appeared on TBS's representative Japanese music broadcast program 'CDTV Live! Live!' (CDTV ライブ! ライブ!), capturing the attention of local viewers. Additionally, in August of that year, they successfully held their first solo concert in Japan in six years through '2025 MONSTA X CONNECT X,' generating a strong response from local fans.

MONSTA X, with the release of their third U.S. full-length album 'Unfold' on the 3rd, became the first K-pop artist to hold three U.S. full-length albums, while also entering the 'Billboard 200' chart, setting a record by placing all their U.S. full-length albums on the chart. Along with this, they secured positions at No. 2 on 'Top Album Sales,' No. 9 on 'Independent Albums,' and No. 37 on 'Billboard Artist 100,' demonstrating their solid global popularity.

As MONSTA X continues to achieve solid results across the globe, anticipation builds for what kind of stage and energy they will bring to captivate local fans during their Japan tour.

MONSTA X will meet local fans with performances of '2026 MONSTA X WORLD TOUR [THE X : NEXUS]' over two days on the 28th and 29th at Lala Arena Tokyo Bay in Chiba, Japan.
