If you want a shot at Stray Kids’ 2027 stadium tour before tickets hit the general sale, sign up for the Artist Presale by Sunday, November 15, at 12 p.m. PT (3 p.m. ET). And keep your phone close: some fans will be asked to take a selfie to prove they’re real.
The K-pop group announced the North American, European and U.K. dates of its RUN IT world tour on November 9, 2026, according to the tour announcement. The North American leg opens May 16, 2027, at Lumen Field in Seattle and includes 12 U.S. stadium shows, from SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles to MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
Three sales in two days
Tickets go out in stages. The STAY Membership Presale starts Wednesday, November 18, at 11 a.m. local time. The Artist Presale follows the same day at 3 p.m. local time, and anyone who registers in time can join it. The general sale opens Thursday, November 19, at 3 p.m. local time on Live Nation.
For Artist Presale dates sold through Ticketmaster, there is no code to wait for. Access is tied to the account you signed up with, so register with the one you plan to buy on. Dates hosted on other ticketing sites may still require a code.
Why some fans will need a selfie
The announcement says extra protections will be in place, working with Ticketmaster, to keep bad actors out of the presale. Some fans may be asked for a quick selfie through Persona, an identity verification company, and in rare cases a photo ID.
Ticketmaster’s help page on these checks points to the details that trip people up:
- Use one phone from start to finish. Switching devices or opening several browser tabs can get your submission rejected.
- Match your names. The name on your Ticketmaster account has to match the legal name on your ID, so fix it in Profile Details before you register.
- The account holder does the check, even when the tickets are for someone else. Fans under 18 need a parent or legal guardian to complete it for them.
- Any ID has to be current. Ticketmaster lists a driver’s license, state ID or passport among the accepted options, and says Persona keeps the biometric data for no more than seven days.
One member will sit this leg out
Fans buying for the U.S. shows should know the lineup going in. Lee Know will not perform on the North American or European legs because he begins his mandatory military service before those dates, according to the announcement. The other seven members will carry the tour.
Register this week with the account you’ll buy on, and do the selfie check from your phone.
