Blackpink underlined their status as the world’s biggest girl group with a high-octane, two-and-a-half-hour show at Wembley Stadium, becoming the first K-pop girl band to headline the venue. Playing to around 70,000 fans, Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé and Lisa delivered precision choreography and a career-spanning set that doubled as a celebration of their “sisterly” chemistry.

First K-pop Girl Group to Headline Wembley

Following icons like Michael Jackson, Taylor Swift, BTS and Oasis, Blackpink’s Wembley debut marks another first for a group already credited as the first K-pop girl band to sell a million albums. The London dates cap the European leg of their Deadline world tour, which spans 31 shows across 16 cities.


Stadium-Scale Pop Theater

Opening salvos—Kill This Love, How You Like That and Pink Venom—ignited a blaze of lasers and pyrotechnics, while a four-panel video wall and member follow-cams let fans focus on their “bias.” Choreography-driven moments like Shut Down and staging for Pretty Savage drew some of the night’s biggest reactions, with mass singalongs to Whistle, Lovesick Girls and DDU-DU DDU-DU.

Solo Shine, Group Power

Between group numbers, each member took a solo turn—showcasing Lisa’s rock-star bravado, Rosé’s arena ballads, Jennie’s club-ready swagger and Jisoo’s sky-high vocals—before reuniting as the “One True 4” for a finale built for stadiums.

New Single, New Milestone

Timed with the tour, comeback single Jump set a YouTube single-day record with 26 million views, reinforcing Blackpink’s digital dominance. By tour’s end, they are projected to break their own record for the highest-grossing tour by a female group, previously set during Born Pink (2022-23).
