Blackpink UK tour 2019: How to get tickets to see K-Pop sensations in London and Manchester

Blackpink have announced two huge UK shows as part of their 2019 world tour.

The K-Pop stars will perform at the Manchester Arena on Tuesday May 21 and the SSE Arena in Wembley on Wednesday May 22, marking their first ever UK dates.

Blackpink previously announced plans to tour in North America, Europe and Australia, although the UK dates are the first to be officially announced.

The four-piece, who are one of the biggest rising stars in K-Pop, become the second stars of the genre to announce arena dates in the capital, after BTS sold out the O2 last October.

The group are already on tour, setting out on a run of shows in Asia on January 11.

As well as racking up over 600 million hits on YouTube with their track DDU-DU DDU-DU, Blackpink are set to become the first female K-Pop group to perform at Coachella later this year.

How to get Blackpink tickets

Tickets for the London show are currently sold out.

Tickets for the Manchester date go on general sale at 9am on Friday February 8. They will be available to purchase here.
