The K-pop girl group HUNTR/X, stars of the Netflix animated film KPop Demon Hunters, have announced a world tour that will include a performance at Manchester's AO Arena on Tuesday 19 October 2027.
The 'Golden' tour, named after the group's breakout single, will arrive in the UK in October 2027 with dates in Glasgow, Birmingham, Manchester and London. The tour begins globally in June 2027 and will visit nearly 50 cities with more than 150 performances across 2027 and 2028.
Record-breaking film and music
HUNTR/X, whose singing voices keep demons at bay in the 2025 Netflix film, have chart-topping singles including Golden, Soda Pop and How It's Done. Their song 'Golden' became the first K-pop track to win both an Oscar and a Grammy, and the film's soundtrack was the first in the US Billboard Hot 100 chart to feature four of its songs in the top ten at the same time.
The film broke records when it was released on the streaming platform last summer, becoming Netflix's most-watched original movie of all time with more than 670 million views. It also won two Oscars.
Immersive production details
Powered by songs from the film, the HUNTR/X characters – Rumi, Mira and Zoey – will interact with the audience through cutting-edge performance innovations. The 'first-of-its-kind' production will immerse fans in the storytelling with live-action stunts and performers, fan-favourite music and choreography, and special performances.
Marian Lee, Netflix's Chief Marketing Officer, said: "KPop Demon Hunters has transformed from a breakout hit into a generational phenomenon - sustaining 63 consecutive weeks in Netflix’s Global Top 10, eclipsing 2 billion Spotify streams for ‘Golden,’ and breaking the all-time record for the longest running soundtrack at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Soundtracks chart."
Lee added: "This fandom was never about a single moment, and the Golden World Tour is how we keep it going – bringing that ‘Takedown’ energy to arenas around the world, where fans can sing, dance and help HUNTR/X seal the Honmoon."
