IVE starts North American tour with successful first solo concerts in Canada
IVE completed its first solo concerts in Canada, launching the North American portion of its world tour with strong audience response.
Starship Entertainment said the group held the second world tour ‘SHOW WHAT I AM’ in Toronto on July 21 and in Montreal on July 23 (local time). These were IVE’s first solo concerts in Canada since debut and drew heavy attention from local fans, the agency added.
The set opened with “GOTCHA” and “XOXZ”, then moved into “BLACKHOLE”, “TKO”, “Holy Moly” and “My Satisfaction”. The group delivered powerful live vocals and dynamic staging, backed by new styling and upgraded stage arrangements.
The concerts highlighted individual solo stages. Wonyoung performed “8”, and Rei, Liz, Gaeul, Leeseo and Yujin each had solo moments that emphasized their individual strengths while reinforcing IVE’s group chemistry.
The energy peaked late in the shows with performances of “ATTITUDE”, “LOVE DIVE”, “REBEL HEART” and “I AM”. During “BANG BANG”, local fans were seen singing along to the Korean lyrics, a sign of IVE’s rising global popularity.
For the encore, IVE performed “Supernova Love”, “Kitsch” and “After LIKE”, moving close to fans as the venue stayed full of cheers until the end.
IVE said through Starship Entertainment:
“We’re especially grateful because this was our first solo concert in Canada. Thanks to Dive’s passionate support, we were able to begin our North American tour on a great note,”
“We will continue to create happy memories for more fans around the world.”
After the Canadian dates, IVE will continue its world tour across North America, visiting Newark, Austin, Los Angeles, Oakland, Seattle and Vancouver.
