Suga Agust D Tour (stylized as SUGA | Agust D Tour) is 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 Belmont, New York, and ended on August 6, 2023, in Seoul, South Korea.[1][2]

Background and development

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.[2] On March 10, 2023, new shows were announced for June 2–4 at the Pia Arena MM in Kanagawa, Japan.[3] Additional shows in Singapore and Bangkok, Thailand were announced on April 5, 2023.[4] On June 25, 2023 during the artist's last worldwide concert tour date, 3 additional encore shows at KSPO Dome in Seoul, South Korea were announced. [5]

Ticketing

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.[6] Media outlets noted the fan criticism that Ticketmaster faced for their handling of the sales, particularly in light of the 2022 controversy.[7][8]

Critical reception

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".[9] 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".[10] 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".[11]
