SEOUL, Aug. 5 (Yonhap) -- ATEEZ held their world tour "Towards the Light: Will to Power" at the iconic Citi Field in New York on the 3rd (local time), their agency KQ Entertainment announced on the 5th.

 

Citi Field, known for hosting renowned artists such as Paul McCartney, Beyoncé, and Lady Gaga, saw ATEEZ become the second K-pop act to hold a solo concert there, following BTS.

 

ATEEZ thrilled the audience with performances of their hit songs like "Hala Hala," "Say My Name," and "Guerrilla."

 

KQ Entertainment highlighted that "the members captivated the audience with their expressive facial performances that matched the mood of each song," and "delivered an unforgettable experience with a rich setlist encompassing various genres."

 

ATEEZ's concert at Citi Field follows their successful shows at large venues in North America, including Los Angeles' BMO Stadium and Arlington's Globe Life Field, maintaining their momentum in the region.

 

"We are grateful to everyone who waited for and attended our concert. We hope our performance gives strength to ATINY (our fandom). We were happy to share this moment with our beloved ATINY," ATEEZ shared their heartfelt sentiments.

 

Despite a two-hour delay caused by heavy rain, dedicated fans stayed put to support the group.

 

ATEEZ will continue their North American tour on the 6th (local time) at the Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C.
