AceShowbiz - K-pop sensation Monsta X is set to expand their 2026 world tour with an exciting run of shows across North America, following the recent release of their third English-language album.

Billboard reveals exclusively that Monsta X will add 10 new stops in the United States and Canada for their ongoing global tour, THE X : NEXUS. The North American leg kicks off on October 3 at the EagleBank Arena in Fairfax, Virginia, and concludes on October 24 at the WAMU Theater in Seattle, Washington.

The tour’s title, THE X : NEXUS, is described in a press release as symbolizing “a bond that goes beyond the long-standing connection between Monsta X and MONBEBE, their official fanbase.” It represents a deeper unity and the beginning of a new chapter forged from over a decade of mutual growth.

This marks Monsta X’s first major tour since their 2022 NO LIMIT Tour, which included notable stops such as New York City’s Radio City Music Hall and the Kia Forum in Inglewood, California. Since then, the six members — Shownu, Kihyun, Hyungwon, Joohoney, Minhyuk, and I.M — have stayed active creatively, with five completing their mandatory military service in South Korea. During their enlistments, they explored solo and unit projects, maintaining their presence in the music scene.

The tour's initial dates began earlier this year with three performances at Seoul’s KSPO Dome, where the group showcased both new group material and solo releases. However, the youngest member, I.M, enlisted for military service in February 2024, meaning the upcoming North American shows will feature the remaining five members.

These North American dates follow the April 3 release of Monsta X’s new album, Unfold. This is their third all-English album, following 2020’s All About Luv — which peaked at No. 5 on the Billboard 200 — and 2021’s The Dreaming, which reached No. 21. Unfold continues their blend of pop and ballads, featuring lead tracks like “baby blue” and “growing pains,” as well as the latest single “heal.” The album’s production includes work by Jeoff Harris, known for collaborating with artists such as K.Flay and Royal & The Serpent.

Tickets for the 2026 THE X : NEXUS world tour in North America will go on sale starting April 14 at 3 p.m. local time, exclusively through LiveNation.com.
