K-pop fans can rejoice as SBS Gayo Daejeon Summer 2025 returns for another spectacular season. This summer edition, now in its second year, brings some of the biggest names in K-pop together for a massive two-day music festival.
Last year’s summer edition was SBS’s first time splitting the festival into a summer and winter show. It gave artists more chances to perform and fans more reasons to celebrate mid-year.
The success of 2024 paved the way for a bigger, bolder 2025 version, backed by NOL Universe. Fan zones and cultural experiences alongside the main concert are planned for this edition.
Stars like NCT DREAM, IVE, TXT, and ENHYPEN, plus fresh rookie acts like ILLIT and BABYMONSTER, are scheduled to perform.
With just 10 days to go, most key details for the 2025 NOL SBS Gayo Daejeon Summer, including the full lineup, ticket info, MCs, and live streaming plans, have now been revealed.
