BLACKPINK’s upcoming world tour, announced for 2025, begins at Goyang Stadium, South Korea, on July 5-6, covering 10 cities, including Paris, Milan, and Tokyo, concluding at Tokyo Dome on January 16-18, 2026. No setlist details are confirmed.
Jennie’s Week 1 performance drew comparisons to her intimate The Ruby Experience concerts, but her Coachella set was more dynamic, varying tempo and showcasing vocal range. Lisa’s staging, with visuals like “REDISCOVER” and “THE ROCKSTAR,” provided insight into her artistic journey. ENHYPEN’s leader Jungwon told Soompi:
“Although this will be our first time at Coachella, I believe we can do well and truly enjoy performing at the festival, thanks to our extensive stage experience.”
BLACKPINK’s 2019 Coachella debut set a benchmark for K-pop acts, followed by ATEEZ in 2024 and now ENHYPEN. Lisa and Jennie’s solo sets align with global pop stars like Charli XCX and Megan Thee Stallion, who also performed at Coachella 2025.
Jennie’s collaboration with Kali Uchis mirrors past Coachella guest appearances, like Billie Eilish joining Labrinth in 2023.
ENHYPEN’s 45-minute set matches the runtime of other debut K-pop acts, with energy comparable to LE SSERAFIM’s 2024 performance, though some fans on X debated vocal clarity.
Coachella has hosted K-pop since Epik High in 2016, with BLACKPINK breaking barriers in 2019. Lisa and Jennie’s solo performances build on their group’s legacy, while ENHYPEN’s debut in three years since their 2020 formation marks one of the fastest K-pop rises to Coachella.
Lisa’s acting debut in The White Lotus Season 3 and Jennie’s role in The Idol (2023) highlight their expanding global influence beyond music.
As of April 18, 2025, Coachella confirmed via its YouTube channel that Week 2 livestreams will mirror Week 1’s schedule, ensuring fans can catch Lisa, Jennie, and ENHYPEN at the same times and stages. No changes to the K-pop lineup were reported, despite FKA twigs’ cancellation due to visa issues, per Pitchfork.
