Stray Kids have made history as the first K-pop boy group to headline London's "British Summer Time Hyde Park" (BST Hyde Park) and close the festival with an unforgettable performance.

On July 14th, Stray Kids took the stage as headliners at Hyde Park in London, UK. This came right after their performance at "I-Days" in Milan, Italy, on July 12th. They closed out two major European music festivals in a row, lighting up the European summer nights.

Around 50,000 fans from all over the world gathered to see Stray Kids that day. The audience filled Hyde Park early, eagerly waiting for the eight members to appear. As the sun set and Stray Kids' intro music began, the crowd erupted in a massive sing-along.

The show kicked off with the title track "S-Class" from their third full-length album "★★★★★ (5-STAR)" released in June 2023. They followed with hits like "THUNDEROUS," "Super Bowl," "TOPLINE (Feat. Tiger JK)," "SORIKUN," "ITEM," and "DOMINO," showcasing their wide musical range and thrilling the crowd.

The highlight of the concert was their signature hits like "Back Door," "MANIAC," and "God's Menu," which sent the crowd into a frenzy. Fans sang along in Korean, adding to the festival's vibrant atmosphere. Stray Kids moved freely across the stage, showing why they are known as "performance masters" and "stage experts." During the encore, they interacted closely with the audience, responding to their cheers.

Stray Kids performed a total of 20 songs, including "ROCK" from their fourth Billboard 200 No. 1 album "ROCKSTAR," "VICTORY SONG," "MIROH," "MEGAVERSE," and "HAVEN," all performed live with a band, maximizing the audience's enjoyment. The performance was enhanced with fiery pillar effects and a spectacular fireworks display, adding energy and romance to the London night sky.

After their success in Milan and London, Stray Kids will continue their momentum in the US in August. On August 2nd, they will headline "Lollapalooza Chicago" at Grant Park, Illinois, further proving their status as "Global Top Artists."

On July 19th at 1 PM, Stray Kids will release their new mini-album "ATE" and the title track "Chk Chk Boom," marking their first comeback of the year. They will then start their largest world tour, "dominATE," with four performances at Seoul KSPO DOME on August 24th, 25th, 31st, and September 1st. The tour will continue in Singapore on September 28th, followed by Melbourne and Sydney in Australia, Kaohsiung in Taiwan, Tokyo in Japan, and other locations in Latin America, North America, and Europe. Stray Kids are set to make a significant mark worldwide.
