According to their agency, Starship Entertainment, MONSTA X will hold the “2026 MONSTA X World Tour [The X: Nexus] – Encore” at the Inspire Arena on Yeongjong Island, Incheon, on November 21–22.
This world tour began earlier this year at the K-Sport Dome in Seoul. It then expanded their global reach, continuing to six Asian cities—including an arena tour in Japan—as well as South America, such as Mexico and Brazil. Notably, the Mexico concert—their first solo performance there in about seven years—sold out completely, proving the enduring strength of their fanbase.
The concert’s strength lies in MONSTA X’s signature live performances. The setlist—ranging from hit medleys to solo stages by each member—showcased both the group’s collective identity and individual members’ unique styles, elevating the overall quality of the show. Another defining feature of this tour is how it encapsulates the group’s past, present, and future direction within a single stage, drawing on the stage experience accumulated over their long career.
Prior to the encore concert, MONSTA X will continue their tour in October across 10 cities in North America, including the U.S. and Canada. Since they will be performing in North America following their tours in Asia and South America before returning to the stage in Korea, this leg effectively serves as the culmination of their world tour.
Another point of anticipation is the new musical direction they showcased in their recently released album, *The Phase*. By adding new songs and fresh choreography to their existing setlist of hit songs, they are expected to create a unique and distinctive setlist exclusive to the encore performances.
