Background

edit

Stray Kids uploaded the video "Step Out 2024" to their social media on January 1, 2024, outlining their accomplishments in 2023 and plans for the next year, including world tour.[1] In May, during Stray Kids and American fashion designer Tommy Hilfiger interview at the 2024 Met Gala, Hilfiger accidentally revealed that the group would go on a 40-city tour.[2] Later, they confirmed the tour during an appearance at Good Morning America a few days later.[3] The world tour, titled Dominate, was formally announced on July 8, alongside the first Asia and Australia leg shows from August 2024 to January 2025, as well as teasing the upcoming shows in Latin America, North America, and Europe.[4] According to JYP Entertainment, the tour title "Dominate" referred to "Stray Kids' unique ambition and determination as 'global top artists' who will dominate the stage."[5] On November 19, the group added the addition 20 tour dates across Latin America, North America, and Europe.[6] On November 23, the additionally dates for New York, Los Angeles, and Mexico City were added due to overwhelming demand.[7][8][9]

Critical reception

edit

Hwang Hye-jin from Newsen praised the members in the Dominated tour "proved their excellent stage management skills by diligently moving around the center stage, the raised stage, and even the two sides, based on the experience they gained through the Japanese dome and North American stadium performances during their second tour.[13] For Singapore show, The Straits Times's Joanne Soh called the show the "commanding presence, high energy and elaborate numbers that were heavy on theatrics,"[14] and Ashley Cheah from HallyuSG noted the camera works, live band, members' solo stages, and performance details as the four highlights of the show.[15]
