Seventeen is heading back out on a new world tour, the K-pop supergroup announced Monday.
The 13-member group — currently performing as 11 members while two members serve — will embark on a nine-stop U.S. leg that commences in Tacoma, Washington, on Oct. 11. From there, the group heads to L.A.’s BMO Stadium for two nights and Austin’s Moody Center for two nights, along with two nights at the Amerant Bank Areana in Sunrise, Florida, and two nights at the Capitol One Arena in Washington, DC. The tour officially kicks off in Incheon, South Korea, on Sept. 13.

The tour, dubbed New_, is the latest in the group’s next chapter, having celebrated 10 years together in May. Seventeen — comprising members S.Coups, Jeonghan, Joshua, Jun, Hoshi, Wonwoo, Woozi, The 8, Mingyu, DK, Seungkwan, Vernon and Dino — released their latest release, Happy Burstday, on their 10th, selling over 2.52 million copies in its first week.
“We are ready to reinvent ourselves,” Seventeen leader S.Coups told The Hollywood Reporter earlier this year. “We are standing at a new starting line, preparing for a new path ahead and ready to blaze a new trail.”
“Most of the members are going to enlist in the military soon. Up until now, we’ve mostly focused on our group promotions,” group member Hoshi said in that interview. “We would like to show more of our individualities, each of the members’ personalities and capabilities, so that when the time comes and we get back together again as a group, we‘ll be able to showcase ourselves as a better Seventeen.”
Official fan club presale begins on Aug. 5 from 3 p.m. to 9:59 p.m. local time. Members of the fan club can register on Hybe-owned fan platform Weverse. General on sale begins on Aug. 6 at 3 p.m. local time. Details can be found on the group’s tour website.
