RIIZE's World Domination: From Sold-Out Bangkok Shows to a Historic US Festival Debut

RIIZE is taking the world by storm with their 'RIIZING LOUD' tour. Get the details on their electrifying Bangkok concerts and their groundbreaking debut at the Austin City Limits (ACL) festival.

RIIZE's World Domination: From Sold-Out Bangkok Shows to a Historic US Festival Debut

SM Entertainment’s monster rookies RIIZE are proving their global powerhouse status with their first-ever world tour, “RIIZING LOUD.” After a spectacular, sold-out stop in Bangkok, the group is now set to make history in the United States, continuing their meteoric rise on the international stage.

Bangkok’s Unstoppable “RIIZING LOUD” Wave

On September 20th and 21st, RIIZE took over Bangkok’s Impact Arena for two consecutive nights of electrifying performances. The concerts were a massive success, with all 22,000 seats completely sold out, demonstrating the group’s immense popularity in Thailand.

The local media frenzy was a testament to their star power. A pre-show press conference saw attendance from over 90 media outlets, including Thailand’s major television channels and newspapers.

On stage, RIIZE delivered a performance described as a “youth musical,” showcasing their dynamic energy with hits like “Fly Up,” “Boom Boom Bass,” “Love 119,” “Talk Saxy,” and their debut track, “Get A Guitar.”

Thai BRIIZE (RIIZE’s official fandom) responded with incredible passion. The arena echoed with deafening cheers and beautiful singalongs to “Memories.” Fans organized touching events, including a stunning light box display that read “LET’s RISE ♥” and heartfelt banner messages that moved the members:

  • “Fly far. Whenever you look back, BRIIZE will always be here.”
  • “Fly high. BRIIZE will be the wings that support you.”

Beyond the concert, the RIIZE phenomenon swept through the city. A massive 560-square-meter pop-up store, which featured a collaboration with local macaron brand SOURI, drew explosive crowds, as did a special fan signing event at the Siam Paragon shopping mall.

Making History at Austin City Limits (ACL) Festival

Next up, RIIZE is heading to the United States for a truly historic performance. On October 4th, they will become the first K-pop idol group ever to perform at the prestigious Austin City Limits Music Festival (ACL) in Texas.

This is a monumental achievement. ACL is one of the largest music festivals in the US, attracting 450,000 people annually and featuring a star-studded lineup that this year includes artists like Doja Cat, Sabrina Carpenter, and Hozier. RIIZE’s inclusion on this stage places them among global music titans and introduces their unique “Emotional Pop” to a massive new audience.

This historic debut is the next step in RIIZE’s carefully planned global festival circuit, which has already seen them conquer stages at Mexico’s Tecate Emblema and Japan’s Summer Sonic.

With their “RIIZING LOUD” tour expanding to 22 regions, including North America, RIIZE is solidifying their position as a leading force of the new K-pop generation. Their journey is just beginning, and the world is clearly watching.
