XG, comprised of members Jurin, Chisa, Cocona, Hinata, Maya, Juria, and Harvey, unveiled the schedule for their much-anticipated first world tour, titled “The First HOWL,” on the 18th.
The group treated fans to a live broadcast on the same day, where an intriguing glitch on the screen was accompanied by the haunting sound of a wolf’s howl, revealing the tour’s locations and dates in true XG style.
According to the released images, XG’s tour will kick off in Japan with performances in Osaka on May 18 and 19, followed by Yokohama on May 25 and 26. The tour will then extend to various Asian countries and regions, including Seoul, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Manila, Singapore, and Taipei. Fans in North America can catch XG’s performances in October, while the group will head to Europe and other regions in November.

In a statement, XG expressed their excitement, stating, “We’ve named our world tour ‘The First HOWL’ as we’re eager to meet and create unforgettable memories with fans worldwide for the first time. Stay tuned for additional tour stops beyond the announced countries!”
