aespa bring their third world tour, SYNK : COMPLÆXITY, to Europe in January 2027. After the AO Arena in Manchester on 14 January and The O2 in London on 16 January, the four-member group play the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam on 19 January, Stockholm on 22 January, Copenhagen on 24 January, the Uber Arena in Berlin on 26 January, Milan on 29 January and the Palau Sant Jordi in Barcelona on 31 January 2027.
It is the group's biggest European run so far, and the first to reach Scandinavia, Italy and Barcelona. Their two earlier European legs, in 2023 and 2025, stayed in Berlin, Paris, Amsterdam, Frankfurt and Madrid. In 2027 every confirmed continental venue is a major arena.
Below you will find every confirmed date, the arenas, the tour night by night and a complete record of aespa's concerts in continental Europe, together with the story of how Karina, Giselle, Winter and Ningning became one of the leading K-pop groups of their generation.
Tickets for the European and UK dates have been on sale since 6 May 2026. The tour follows the release of Lemonade, aespa's second studio album, on 29 May 2026, led by 'WDA (Whole Different Animal)' featuring G-Dragon, and their first Japanese EP, Kiss n Tell, in July 2026.
The continental leg covers six countries in thirteen days. It opens in the Netherlands, crosses to Sweden and Denmark for a weekend, comes back south to Germany and Italy, and ends in Spain on a Sunday night. The venues for Stockholm and Copenhagen were still to be confirmed in our data on 5 October 2026; this page will be updated when they are published.
For Milan, our tour data lists the Unipol Forum in Assago, while current ticket listings for 29 January 2027 name the new Unipol Dome in the Santa Giulia district. The two arenas are different buildings in different parts of the city, so check the venue printed on your ticket before you travel.
No support act has been announced. On the SYNK : Parallel Line tour the European dates had no opening act and ran to 24 songs a night.
The Ziggo Dome stands beside the Johan Cruijff ArenA in the south-east of Amsterdam. Holding about 17,000, it is the largest indoor concert hall in the Netherlands.
The Uber Arena opened in 2008 as the O2 World in Friedrichshain, by the Spree in eastern Berlin, and was later called the Mercedes-Benz Arena. It holds about 17,000 for concerts and is the home of the Eisbären Berlin ice hockey club.
The Palau Sant Jordi, on Montjuïc in Barcelona, was designed by Arata Isozaki and opened in 1990 for the 1992 Olympic Games. It is the city's largest indoor arena, holding about 17,000 to 18,000 for concerts.

Saturday 16 January 2027 — The O2, London.
Tuesday 19 January 2027 — Ziggo Dome, Amsterdam. Their most recent documented Amsterdam show was at AFAS Live on 6 March 2025.

aespa's first concerts in Europe came at the end of their first world tour, SYNK : HYPER LINE, which began at the Jamsil Arena in Seoul in February 2023 and was extended in May 2023 with fourteen shows in North America, South America and Europe. In the setlist archive the European leg includes the Columbiahalle in Berlin on 25 September 2023 and the Palais des Sports in Paris on 30 September 2023.
Those first European sets ran to 23 and 24 songs. The Paris show opened with 'Girls', 'ænergy' and 'Savage', moved through 'Illusion', 'Lucid Dream', 'Dreams Come True' and the members' solo stages, and ended with 'Spicy', 'Better Things', 'Salty & Sweet', 'Next Level', 'Black Mamba', 'Til We Meet Again' and 'ICU'. 'Hold on Tight', the song built on the Tetris theme, was also in the set.
In October 2024 the group made a short festival appearance at the Auditorio Miguel Ríos in Rivas-Vaciamadrid, near Madrid, with a four-song set of 'Spicy', 'Supernova', 'Next Level' and 'Armageddon'.
The second world tour, SYNK : Parallel Line, opened in Seoul in June 2024 and reached Europe in March 2025, in larger venues than before: Le Zénith in Paris on 4 March, AFAS Live in Amsterdam on 6 March, the Jahrhunderthalle in Frankfurt on 9 March and the Movistar Arena in Madrid on 12 March 2025. Each night followed the same 24-song running order.
That leaves the 2027 tour with several firsts. Stockholm, Copenhagen, Milan and Barcelona have never hosted an aespa concert, and the group return to Amsterdam and Berlin in much larger arenas: the Ziggo Dome replaces AFAS Live, and the Uber Arena replaces the Columbiahalle. France, which hosted both earlier tours, has no date this time.
The table below lists 7 documented European concerts by aespa between 2023 and 2025, with the most shows in Paris (2), Madrid (1), Frankfurt (1), Amsterdam (1), Rivas-Vaciamadrid (1), Berlin (1). It is not exhaustive: it only includes documented shows.
| Date | City | Venue | Tour / event |
|---|---|---|---|
| 12 March 2025 | Madrid | Movistar Arena | SYNK : Parallel Line |
| 9 March 2025 | Frankfurt | Jahrhunderthalle | SYNK : Parallel Line |
| 6 March 2025 | Amsterdam | AFAS Live | SYNK : Parallel Line |
| 4 March 2025 | Paris | Le Zénith | SYNK : Parallel Line |

Across the 6 most recent documented European concerts with a full song list (25 September 2023 to 12 March 2025), these are the songs that came up most often. Titles only — set lists change from night to night.
aespa are a South Korean girl group formed by SM Entertainment, the company's first new girl group since Red Velvet in 2014. The members are Karina, the leader, Giselle, Winter and Ningning. The name combines 'avatar' and 'experience' with the word 'aspect', and the group's early concept, built around virtual avatars, made them known for bringing the metaverse idea and hyperpop sounds into K-pop.
They debuted on 17 November 2020 with 'Black Mamba', whose video set a record for the most views in 24 hours for a K-pop group debut. 'Next Level' (May 2021) reached No. 2 on the Circle Digital Chart and won Song of the Year at the Korean Music Awards, and the EP Savage (October 2021) reached No. 20 on the Billboard 200, the highest debut for a K-pop girl group at the time. In 2021 the group also became the first K-pop act chosen as ambassadors by the French fashion house Givenchy.
Girls (2022) sold more than a million copies in its first week, a first for a girl group, and debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200. My World (2023), led by 'Spicy', sold over two million copies. In 2023 aespa played the Tokyo Dome, Governors Ball and Outside Lands, and released 'Better Things' and the EP Drama. Their first studio album, Armageddon (May 2024), was led by 'Supernova', which topped the Circle Digital Chart for eleven weeks and was named Song of the Year at the MAMA and Melon Music Awards.
'Whiplash' (October 2024) became their first top-ten hit on the Billboard Global 200, and 'Dirty Work' (2025) reached its top five. The EP Rich Man followed in September 2025, their first release in partnership with Capitol Music Group. Lemonade, the second studio album, came out on 29 May 2026, and the group played Lollapalooza in Chicago in August 2026 before turning to the SYNK : COMPLÆXITY tour.
| Album | Year | Chart peak |
|---|---|---|
| Armageddon | 2024 | UK 52 |
| Lemonade | 2026 | UK 15 |
The weekend of 22 and 24 January 2027 takes aespa to Stockholm and Copenhagen, two cities where the group have never performed. Neither venue was confirmed in our data on 5 October 2026, but both shows are listed as part of the official tour.
For fans in Norway and Finland these are the closest dates. Until the halls are announced, be careful with any listing that already names a venue and a seat.
Both cities have hosted aespa before, and both get bigger rooms in 2027. Amsterdam moves from AFAS Live (6 March 2025) to the Ziggo Dome on Tuesday 19 January, and Berlin from the Columbiahalle (25 September 2023) to the Uber Arena on Tuesday 26 January.
The Ziggo Dome holds about 17,000 people and the Uber Arena is Berlin's largest indoor venue. Berlin is the only German date this time; Frankfurt, which saw the 2025 tour, is not on the list.
The European leg ends at the Palau Sant Jordi in Barcelona on Sunday 31 January 2027. Spain has been a constant on aespa's European tours, but always in Madrid: the Rivas-Vaciamadrid festival stage in 2024 and the Movistar Arena in March 2025.
The Palau Sant Jordi, built for the 1992 Olympic Games on Montjuïc, is one of Spain's largest indoor arenas, which makes the final night one of the biggest shows of the run.
Milan on Friday 29 January is the group's first Italian concert. Our data, taken from the original listings, gives the Unipol Forum in Assago; ticket listings checked in October 2026 name the Unipol Dome, the new arena built in Milan's Santa Giulia district.
Until the official tour page settles the question, rely on the venue printed on your ticket and allow extra time for travel, since the two arenas are on opposite sides of the city.
Much of aespa's catalogue has appeared since their last European tour in March 2025. 'Dirty Work', released in June 2025 with a video filmed at a steelworks, entered the top five of the Billboard Global 200; the EP Rich Man followed in September 2025, and Lemonade, with 'WDA (Whole Different Animal)' featuring G-Dragon, in May 2026.
Fans who saw the SYNK : Parallel Line show in Paris, Amsterdam, Frankfurt or Madrid should therefore expect a substantially different set in 2027, even if signature songs such as 'Black Mamba', 'Next Level', 'Savage', 'Spicy', 'Supernova' and 'Whiplash' are likely to remain. The tour title, SYNK : COMPLÆXITY, continues the SYNK naming used for every aespa world tour since 2023.
The 2025 European shows of SYNK : Parallel Line followed a fixed 24-song order. They opened with 'Drama', 'Black Mamba', 'Salty & Sweet' and 'Supernova', included a solo section with Karina's 'Up', Giselle's 'Dopamine', Winter's 'Spark' and Ningning's 'Bored!', and closed with 'Whiplash', 'Set the Tone', 'Next Level', 'Armageddon', 'ænergy', 'Just Another Girl' and 'Life's Too Short'.
The 2027 shows are expected to bring songs from Lemonade, including 'WDA (Whole Different Animal)', as well as 'Dirty Work' and 'Rich Man', which had not been released at the time of the last European tour. Set lists may change between cities.
The European dates have been on sale since 6 May 2026 through the official ticket outlet of each country and the arenas' websites. Several venues also sell premium packages and box seats through their official channels.
Presale access for K-pop tours usually comes through official fan membership. There is no public aespa presale code, and codes sold on social media are not genuine. If a date is sold out, use only the official resale platform of the country concerned.
Prices are set by the local promoters and differ between cities and between standing and seated areas. The alert buttons on this page will tell you when the Stockholm and Copenhagen venues are confirmed and when tickets are returned.
