Monsta X Unveils North America Dates for THE X : NEXUS World Tour

Following the release of a landmark third English album on Friday (April 3), Monsta X is now expanding their new world tour to North America.

Billboard can exclusively share the first details on 10 new stops that Monsta X has added to their ongoing 2026 world tour, THE X : NEXUS, across the United States and Canada. Starting at the EagleBank Arena in Fairfax, Va., on Oct. 3, the group will play dates across the two countries before wrapping on Oct. 24 at the WAMU Theater in Seattle, Wash.

According to a press release, the tour’s title, THE X : NEXUS, “reflects a bond that goes beyond the long-standing connection between Monsta X and MONBEBE, their official fanbase, signaling a deeper sense of unity and a new chapter forward built on more than a decade of shared growth.”

The trek marks Monsta X’s first large-scale tour since 2022’s NO LIMIT Tour, which played 10 dates across the U.S. including New York City’s Radio City Music Hall and the Kia Forum in Inglewood, Calif. Since that time, group members Shownu, Kihyun, Hyungwon, Joohoney, Minhyuk and I.M have remained united, with five of the six completing their individual mandatory military enlistments in the South Korean army and using that time to explore solo and unit releases.

Monsta X spotlighted both group and solo material during the kickoff NEXUS tour dates that began with three days at Seoul’s KSPO Dome in January. Youngest member I.M enlisted for military service in February this year, meaning the upcoming tour will feature the five remaining members.

The new tour dates follow the release of Monsta X’s new album Unfold, the band’s third all-English project following 2020’s All About Luv (which peaked at No. 5 on the Billboard 200) and 2021’s The Dreaming (No. 21 on the Billboard 200). The pop and ballad–focused LP features the lead tracks “baby blue” and “growing pains,” alongside the latest single “heal,” produced by Jeoff Harris, who’s crafted tracks for the likes of K.Flay, Jordy, and Royal & The Serpent.
