Background

Stray Kids held their first world tour, District 9: Unlock, in 2019–2020 with 24 shows across Asia, the United States, and Europe,[1] but most shows were canceled or postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[2] On November 22, 2020, the group held their first online concert, titled Unlock: Go Live In Life via Beyond Live and was considered as a continuation of their District 9: Unlock.[3]

On February 13, 2022, Stray Kids announced their sixth EP Oddinary, scheduled for release on March 18.[4] While teasing the EP, they announced their second world tour, titled Maniac. It is scheduled to begin on April 30 – May 1 in Seoul, South Korea, and travel to several cities in Japan and the United States, comprising 15 shows so far. Avenues and additional shows will be announced soon.[5][6] The tour is named after the EP's lead single "Maniac".[7]

On March 28, the group announced that the Seoul shows will hold at Jamsil Indoor Stadium, adding an additional date in Seoul on April 29,[8] and the last day of the Seoul shows will be broadcast online via Beyond Live.[9] On April 15, the venues in Japan were announced, holding at World Memorial Hall in Kobe, and Yoyogi National Stadium 1st Gymnasium in Tokyo,[10] as well as the US leg venues on April 18.[11][12] On April 23, two US shows was added; one in Newark, and one in Los Angeles, due to overwhelming demand,[13] although many attributed this to ticket scalpers, which was sold above $2000.[14]
