YG Entertainment announced on June 18 that BIGBANG and WINNER will be participating in Japan’s large-scale music festival “a-nation.”
The two groups will be in Tokyo’s Ajinomoto Stadium on August 29 for the “a-nation island & stadium fes. 2014 powered by bin Jelly.”
It is BIGBANG’s first appearance at the stadium since Aug 26, 2012, and the upcoming one is more special as they will be headlining for the first time. WINNER, who will be there for the first time, is expected to heat up the fans.
From April to May, BIGBANG and WINNER fired up the local fans when they were involved in “Family World Tour 2014 Power- in Japan” that attracted 210,000 fans at Tokyo and Kyocera Domes.
BIGBANG members are noticing their huge popularity as solo artists as well. DAESUNG and TAEYANG are actively promoting in Japan. DAESUNG held his solo arena tour on June 11 and 12 in Yokohama Arena as a start, and will move on to perform 15 times in 8 cities joined by 170,000 fans. His new single “RAINY RAINY” released at the same time as the launch of his concert topped Japan’s iTunes overall album chart, garnering much popularity in the neighboring country. He will be releasing his new solo album “D’slove” on July 16 in Japan as well.
Meanwhile, TAEYANG is gearing up for his solo debut album release in Japan on Aug 13, while kicking off his first Japan tour performing 10 times across 6 cities, starting from Osaka on Aug 12.
WINNER is also garnering much popularity in Japan. They caught the attention of the local fans when they appeared on last year’s survival program “WHO IS NEXT: WIN,” while also heating up the Japanese fans when they performed at the opening of BIGBANG’s Tour.
