The Summer Sonic Festival is known as one of the most prominent rock music fest in Japan. It is usually held in the cities of Osaka and Tokyo simultaneously due to its vast scale.
This year, the festival made a record-breaking feat after selling all tickets for the Tokyo and Osaka venues in a short amount of time.
Previously, BLACKPINK also performed in front of thousands of music festival attendees during the 2019 Summer Sonic Festival.
NewJeans is also scheduled to perform at the Lollapalooza in Chicago on Thursday, August 3.
