NiziU wrapped up their first winter tour, and it was a huge success – 155,000 fans turned out to see them perform. To cap off the excitement, the group announced their biggest tour yet: “NiziU Live with U 2025”, kicking off in September and running into next year.
The 9-member Japanese girl group performed a solo concert at Fukuoka’s West Japan General Exhibition Center on February 22 and 23. The concert was the final stop of their “NiziU Live with U 2024-2025 ‘AWAKE'” tour.
NiziU’s first winter tour was a huge success, running from November to February and covering 8 regions with 18 shows. The tour visited cities across Japan, including Hokkaido, Tokyo, Osaka, and Fukuoka, and attracted a total audience of 155,000 fans.
NiziU brought their tour full circle in Fukuoka, the same city where they launched their debut tour, “NiziU Live with U 2022 ‘Light it Up'”, in 2022. The group created new memories with fans by returning to this meaningful venue.
NiziU delivered a high-energy setlist featuring 24 songs, including hits like “YOAKE”, “CRUSH”, and “Made of Love” from their newly-released debut mini-album “AWAKE”. The Fukuoka concerts were broadcast live in 47 Japanese movie theaters, and the February 22nd show was also streamed online through popular local platforms.
During their winter tour, they performed many of their hit songs such as “HEARTRIS”, “PRISM”, “RISE UP”, “All Right”, “Twinkle Twinkle”, and more.
NiziU ended their concert on a high note with the announcement of a new tour: “NiziU Live with U 2025”. This year’s tour will start in September and hit 21 cities across Japan, including Aomori, Iwate, Miyagi, and Tokyo. In addition, they have already lined up shows in Hokkaido, Tokyo, Aichi, Osaka, and Fukuoka for next year.
On February 20, NiziU made a special guest appearance at J.Y. Park’s 30th-anniversary concert, “Still JYP”, held at Tokyo Dome City Hall. The group performed a heartfelt set, including “Take a picture” and “Make you happy” as well as “YOAKE”, accompanied by J.Y. Park on piano.
