A Pre-Tour Lollapalooza Stop in Chicago
Ahead of the tour proper, aespa will take the Lollapalooza stage in Chicago on August 2, offering an early preview of the production. The group’s U.S. festival history includes prior appearances at Outside Lands and Governors Ball in 2023, following their 2022 U.S. live debut at Coachella.
“Lemonade” Album Anchors the Cycle
The tour follows the announcement of Lemonade, aespa’s second studio album. Featuring 10 tracks and arriving May 29, the project is the group’s first full-length release in two years, following the success of their debut LP Armageddon, which topped the iTunes Top Albums chart in 25 regions. Pre-orders for Lemonade are open through online and offline retailers worldwide.
The release sits within a stretch of accolades that includes Billboard Women in Music 2025 “Group of the Year,” a nomination for “Best Female K-Pop Artist” at the 2026 American Music Awards, and a 2026 Red Dot Design Award in the Product Design category — recognition that spans both music and visual creative output.

A Group Operating at Global Scale
Made up of Karina, Winter, Giselle, and Ningning, aespa debuted in 2020 with “Black Mamba” under SM Entertainment and has since reached million-seller status across seven consecutive releases. The catalog includes the EPs Girls, My World, Drama, and Whiplash, the physical single “Dirty Work,” sixth mini album Rich Man, and the full-length Armageddon. The group has also expanded its presence through cross-genre work, including the recent collaboration with Anderson .Paak on “Keychain (FROM THE FILM K-POPS!).”
The Synk: Complæxity routing positions aespa to build on that trajectory, pairing a major-label album cycle with a Live Nation-produced global run that stretches across five regions and into early 2027.
