Stray Kids to beam Tokyo Dome show to cinemas worldwide on Nov. 7
Stray Kids will beam their Nov. 7 Tokyo Dome concert live into cinemas around the world.
The one-night cinema event, titled Stray Kids World Tour 'RUN IT' Live Viewing, will carry the show from Japan to big screens internationally, according to Billboard. It offers fans who cannot get to Tokyo another way in. The date is the middle night of a three-night stand at the Dome.
Trafalgar Releasing and JYP Entertainment will handle the worldwide cinema broadcast, according to BroadwayWorld. Theatre lists, territory information and local start times are being centralised on the official information site, StrayKidsLiveViewing.com. Tickets for the worldwide event go on sale at 10 a.m. ET on Oct. 14.
Start times will not be the same everywhere. The Tokyo performance begins in the evening Japan time, so broadcasts in select territories will be delayed to accommodate local time zones. That approach keeps screenings in usable evening hours rather than asking cinemagoers to turn up in the middle of the night.
The cinema night sits inside a busy Japan schedule. Stray Kids are set to play Kyocera Dome Osaka in Osaka on Oct. 24 before returning to Tokyo for concerts on Nov. 6, 7 and 8. The three Tokyo Dome dates close the Japan leg of the RUN IT tour, which opened at MUFG Stadium, the Japan National Stadium, in Tokyo on Aug. 29 and 30.
In Japan, the domestic cinema rollout is already detailed. The screenings will play in movie theatres nationwide, with the Nov. 7 screening listed to start at 5:00 p.m., according to Live Viewing Japan. Tickets are priced at 4,500 Japanese yen including tax, with all seats reserved. A further screening linked to the additional Tokyo Dome performance is listed for Nov. 8 starting at 4:30 p.m.
For fans, this means checking two tracks. International cinemagoers should use the global site and the Oct. 14 on-sale for the worldwide event. Fans in Japan should follow domestic theatre listings for seat maps and local sales rules.
More cinemas and local timings are expected to be added as Nov. 7 approaches. If you plan to go, set an alert for your territory and confirm whether your city gets the live transmission or the delayed version.
