HUNTR/X are heading to Glasgow, Birmingham, Manchester and London next October as Netflix brings its record-breaking animated hit to life in a spectacular new concert experience.
HUNTR/X are officially going on a world tour. Yes, the fictional K-pop girl group from Netflix's global phenomenon KPop Demon Hunters are heading out of the animated world and into real-life arenas, with seven UK performances confirmed for October 2027.
Netflix and AEG Presents have announced the KPop Demon Hunters Golden World Tour, an ambitious live production that will bring Rumi, Mira and Zoey to audiences across nearly 50 cities worldwide. The tour kicks off in June 2027 before arriving in the UK for shows in Glasgow, Birmingham, Manchester and London.
And while we've seen K-pop concerts become increasingly spectacular over the years, this one is set to take things in an entirely different direction.
Bringing HUNTR/X to life on stage
Rather than a traditional concert featuring the singers behind the soundtrack, the Golden World Tour promises an immersive experience combining animated characters with live performers, choreography, stunts and interactive storytelling.
The show's centrepiece will be HUNTR/X themselves, with Rumi, Mira and Zoey brought to life through what organisers describe as cutting-edge performance technology. Fans can also expect appearances from the Saja Boys and everyone's favourite supernatural feline, Derpy Tiger.
The production will draw on the film's hugely successful soundtrack, which turned songs like 'Golden' and 'Takedown' into global hits and introduced a whole new audience to the world of K-pop.
One important detail remains unclear, however. Netflix and AEG Presents have not confirmed whether EJAE, Audrey Nuna and Rei Ami, the real-life singing voices behind HUNTR/X, will appear during the tour. Although special performances have been teased, the full lineup and exactly how the animated characters will interact with audiences have yet to be revealed.
It's an interesting challenge for a production built around a fictional group. So much of what makes a K-pop concert special comes from the relationship between artists and fans, whether that's the live vocals, fan chants or those unexpected moments between songs. Recreating that connection with animated idols will be no small task, but it's also what makes this tour such an intriguing prospect.
And if there's one thing KPop Demon Hunters has already demonstrated, it's that you don't necessarily need real-life idols to build a passionate fandom.
Since its release in June 2025, the film has become Netflix's most-watched film of all time, surpassing 670 million views. Its soundtrack has accumulated billions of streams, while 'Golden' made history by winning both an Oscar and a Grammy.
Netflix's Chief Marketing Officer, Marian Lee, described the film as a "generational phenomenon", adding that the tour will give fans the opportunity to sing, dance and help HUNTR/X seal the Honmoon together.
With more than 150 performances planned across 2027 and 2028, Netflix is clearly betting that the excitement surrounding its animated superstars can translate into something much bigger than the screen.

How to get tickets for the KPop Demon Hunters UK tour
General ticket sales open on Friday 20 November 2026 at 10am UK time, with two presale opportunities available earlier in the week.
The Mastercard presale begins on Wednesday 18 November at 10am, followed by the 'FOR THE FANS' presale on Thursday 19 November at 10am. Fans can register for presale access through the official tour website.
A limited number of VIP packages will also be available, potentially including reserved seating, on-stage photo opportunities, exclusive merchandise, memorabilia and pre-show parties.
Ticket prices have not yet been detailed in the announcement.
With a soundtrack made for singing at the top of your lungs and a story that places the power of fans at its very heart, KPop Demon Hunters certainly has the ingredients for an arena-sized celebration.
Whether the tour can capture the magic of a traditional K-pop concert remains to be seen. But the prospect of thousands of fans singing 'Golden' together, while HUNTR/X battle demons on stage, is something we never expected to be adding to the UK's concert calendar.
And really, what better way to keep the Honmoon sealed?
