The In Your Area World Tour (also known as Blackpink World Tour [In Your Area]) was the first worldwide concert tour and the second overall by South Korean girl group Blackpink. The tour began on November 10, 2018 in Seoul, South Korea and ended on February 22, 2020, in Fukuoka, Japan, in support of their albums Square Up (2018) and Kill This Love (2019). It visited a total of 18 countries and 26 cities around the world. The tour is the highest-grossing tour by a Korean girl group.[1]

Background[]

Blackpink 2018 Tour [In Your Area] Seoul x BC Card[]

On September 12, it was announced that the group would hold their first concert in Seoul titled "Blackpink 2018 Tour [In Your Area] Seoul x BC Card" on November 11 and November 12 at the Olympic Gymnastics Arena. It was revealed that the title of the tour 'In Your Area' was chosen by the members themselves.[2] Pre-order tickets became available to the group's fan club members on September 14 via Auction Ticket, while tickets were made available to the general public on September 18. Each member of the group played an active role in pitching ideas for the concert.[3] All 20,000 tickets for the two concerts were quickly sold out.[4]

During the two-day concerts at Seoul, member Jennie performed her debut solo song "Solo", which was released later on November 12, 2018, for the first time ever.[5] Blackpink released a 14-track live album that was recorded during the Seoul concerts, Blackpink 2018 Tour In Your Area Seoul, on August 30, 2019.[6]

Blackpink 2019–2020 World Tour [In Your Area][]

On October 31, 2018, Blackpink announced their first tour dates for the Asia leg, with dates in Bangkok, Jakarta, Manila, Singapore and Kuala Lumpur commencing in mid-January 2019.[7] On January 28, 2019, Blackpink officially announced the concert dates and venues for the European leg. The tour kicked off in Amsterdam on May 18, 2019.[8] The group later shared the tour's North America stops, on February 11, 2019 via social media. The North America leg kicked off in Los Angeles on April 17, in between the two weekends of Coachella where the group performed.[9] On February 22, 2019, it was reported that all 60,000 tickets for the group's first North America tour were sold out.[10] Blackpink announced tour dates for Australia on February 25.[11] Kia Motors served as the tour's official sponsor.[12]

On April 15, the group announced they would hold a total of four dome concerts in three cities in Japan, starting with Tokyo on December 4, 2019.[13] On 22 January 2020, it was announced that the tour's last concert at Fukuoka Dome will be broadcast live in 96 movie theaters in Japan to repay the enthusiastic support from fans.[14] A live album, DVD and Blu-ray of the Tokyo Dome concert, Blackpink 2019–2020 World Tour In Your Area – Tokyo Dome –, was released on May 6, 2020. The DVD ranked first on Oricon DVD Weekly Chart (May 4–10).[15]
