Stray Kids enthralled an audience of 100,000 spectators at Brazil's Rock in Rio, one of the globe's biggest music festivals. Headlining the event on Friday evening at Olympic Park in Rio de Janeiro, the eight-member K-pop group joined an impressive lineup that also featured international stars such as Calvin Harris, the Black Eyed Peas, Maroon 5, and Elton John.
This marked a historic moment for Stray Kids, as they became the first K-pop act to headline the festival. In a nod to K-pop's concert culture, Rock in Rio allowed fans to bring lightsticks into the venue for the first time since its inception in 1985, a gesture that emphasized the profound impact of Stray Kids' performance. The group's agency, JYP Entertainment, announced the electrifying set, which included chart-topping tracks like Topline, S-Class, God's Menu, Chk Chk Boom, Lalalala, and This & That.
Looking ahead, Stray Kids is scheduled to embark on their own Latin American festival tour, Stray City, with performances set to take place in Buenos Aires on Monday and Tuesday, followed by shows in Mexico City on September 25 and 26.
