EXO’s vocal powerhouse Chen is gearing up for a major solo tour in the coming year. On December 16, 2025, Chen revealed additional dates and cities for his upcoming ‘Arcadia’ concert tour, signaling a significant expansion of his live performances across Asia.
New Tour Destinations
Building on his global momentum, Chen will bring the ‘Arcadia’ experience to six major Asian cities:
- Taipei
- Yokohama
- Jakarta
- Manila
- Macao
- Kuala Lumpur
This tour marks a step up from his 2024 ‘Beyond the Door’ fan concert series, which previously touched down in Taipei, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, and Manila.
The “Arcadia” Era
The tour is named after his latest solo mini-album, Arcadia, which was released in September 2025.
The album has been praised for its musical depth and features a variety of tracks that showcase Chen’s signature emotive vocals, including:
- “Arcadia” (Title Track)
- “No Gravity”
- “Help Me (Somebody 2 Love)”
- “In My Life”
- “Deja-Vu”
Fans (EXO-Ls) are eagerly anticipating these live performances, as they will be the first opportunity for many to see the songs from the Arcadia album performed in a full concert setting.
With his reputation as one of the industry’s top vocalists, the ‘Arcadia’ tour is expected to be a highlight of the 2026 K-pop concert calendar.
EXO member and renowned soloist Chen is set to extend his musical journey well into 2026.
On December 16, 2025, Chen officially revealed the full list of dates and locations for his solo concert tour, “Arcadia,” promising a series of emotional and high-energy performances for his global fanbase.
Expanding the “Arcadia” Journey
The “Arcadia” tour originally began in October 2025 with a successful two-day kick-off at the KEPCO Art Center in Seoul.
Following the initial announcement of stops in Taipei and Yokohama for early January, Chen has now confirmed several additional cities across Asia, broadening the reach of the tour significantly.
The newly announced schedule for 2026 includes:
- Taipei & Yokohama: January 2026
- Jakarta
- Manila
- Macau
- Kuala Lumpur
This expansion highlights Chen’s enduring popularity as a solo artist and his commitment to meeting fans who have supported his music across Southeast Asia and beyond.
A Theme of Hope and Perseverance
The tour takes its name from Chen’s September 2025 release, “Arcadia.” The title track of the same name was widely praised for its soaring vocals and its “anthem-like” message of hope and perseverance.
Fans can expect a setlist that balances these powerful new tracks with his classic ballads and emotional hits like “Beautiful Goodbye” and “Shall We?”.
The “Arcadia” era represents a pivotal point in Chen’s solo career, showcasing a more cinematic and grand sound that has resonated deeply with listeners.
The concert is expected to feature high-quality production that mirrors the artistic direction of his recent music videos.
Ticketing and Tour Details
While the cities have been confirmed, fans are encouraged to stay tuned to official social media channels for specific venue details and ticketing information for each stop.
Given the intimate nature of Chen’s previous solo shows and the high demand for his live vocals, tickets are expected to be highly sought after.
This tour comes amidst a busy period for Chen, who has been balancing his solo promotions with activities under his agency, INB100, and his ongoing connection to EXO.
For “SOONDINGIEs” (Chen’s fans), the 2026 tour serves as a beautiful opportunity to experience the “Vocal King’s” live performances in a dedicated solo setting.
