Suga Agust D Tour (also known as SUGA | AGUST D TOUR 'D-DAY' after the album release) was the first worldwide concert tour by South Korean rapper Suga, also known as Agust D, in support of his debut studio album, D-Day. The tour began on April 26, 2023, in New York City, and ended on August 6, 2023, in Seoul, South Korea.[2][3]

Background and development

[edit]

On February 14, 2023, Big Hit Music announced that Suga would be embarking on a world tour with a poster listing dates for 20 shows in the United States, Indonesia, Thailand, Singapore, and South Korea.[3] On March 10, 2023, new shows were announced for June 2–4 at the Pia Arena MM in Kanagawa, Japan.[4] Additional shows in Singapore and Bangkok, Thailand were announced on April 5, 2023.[5] On June 25, 2023, during the artist's then-last worldwide concert tour date in Seoul, 3 additional encore shows at KSPO Dome in Seoul, South Korea were announced, bringing the total number of shows to 28.[6]

Ticketing

[edit]

Tickets to the U.S. leg of the tour were made available for pre-sale to BTS' global fan club members on March 1 via Ticketmaster, with a general public on-sale scheduled for March 3. On March 1, Ticketmaster reported that all tickets would be released during the first pre-sale because "the demand exceeded the number of available tickets"; the general verified fan pre-sale and public on-sale were subsequently cancelled due to continued high demand.[7] Media outlets noted the fan criticism that Ticketmaster faced for their handling of the sales, particularly in light of the 2022 controversy.[8][9]

Critical reception

[edit]

Critics appreciated the tour's production value and artistic direction. Tamar Herman of the Variety thought that "the concert unveils itself like a noir musical with a storm of thunder and lightning amid a purple haze".[10] Likewise, Jae-ha Kim of Teen Vogue, compared it to a rock opera and theater, because of the "pyrotechnics, a backup band and a nine-panels stage that will eventually disappear".[11] Giving it a five star rating, Rhian Daly from NME praised Suga's "underrated vocal skills and rap bar-spitting abilities are second to none".[12] Naming the tour as one the best concerts of 2023, Freya Rinaldi of Atwood Magazine praised the uniqueness of Suga's "performance and his breathtaking stage presence" and the lights and stage production of the show as "incomparable to any other current running tour", deeming it as "one of the best tours to hit the United States in 2023".[13] Kayti Burt of Paste also dubbed Suga's performance of Snooze on stage during the final show on his world tour as "one of the year’s most powerful moments in pop music—the culmination of an arduous journey of self-knowledge and healing, and a testament to one musician’s deep connection to his art."[14] Based on tour data provided to Pollstar, the tour is 9th on the 2023 Top 20 Global Concert Tours list, which ranks artists by average box office gross per number of cities.[15]
