K-pop trailblazers BIGBANG are gearing up for a massive return in 2026 to celebrate 20 years since their 2006 debut. YG Entertainment founder and executive producer Yang Hyun-suk made the exciting confirmation today (March 4, 2026 KST) in the official "2026 YG PLAN" announcement video.
In the video, Yang Hyun-suk states directly: "To get straight to the point... Celebrating the 20th anniversary this year, we've agreed to hold a BIGBANG performance. I would like to announce that BIGBANG's global tour will kick off." He adds confidence from their long-standing partnership, promising YG's full effort for "the most perfect and beautiful BIGBANG performance" with no anticipated difficulties.
The tour will spotlight G-Dragon, Taeyang, and Daesung as the active trio, following years of solo endeavors, military service completions, and the group's last full release ("Still Life" in 2022). This builds on G-Dragon's earlier February 2026 fan meeting tease about a group comeback.
Watch the official YG announcement video (BIGBANG segment begins around the 3:55–4:30 mark):
The announcement aligns perfectly with BIGBANG's already-scheduled headline slot at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio, California. They'll perform on the main stage during both weekends—April 12 and April 19, 2026—sharing the bill with artists like Sabrina Carpenter, Justin Bieber, Karol G, and more. This festival appearance kicks off their anniversary momentum on a global scale.
Note: Former member T.O.P is not part of these group activities, as he continues independent pursuits separate from YG.
VIPs worldwide are erupting with joy—fan projects, support hashtags, and setlist dreams are already trending. Details on additional tour stops, dates, venues, tickets, or new music remain forthcoming, but this official word from YG sets the stage for an unforgettable year.
From pioneering tracks like "Lies," "Haru Haru," and "Fantastic Baby" to shaping modern K-pop, BIGBANG's influence is timeless. 2026 looks set to be legendary. 💥👑
