Are you a fan of Blackpink? Wouldn’t you kill to attend a live concert of theirs, especially in these Covid-19 days?

If you find yourself nodding along to the questions above, I’ve got great news for you. With a capital G.

On 27 Dec 2020, you will be able to watch Blackpink perform live on YouTube in a concert titled The Show.

Blackpink Holding First Livestream Concert in YouTube But You’d Have to Pay for It

This will be the world-famous girl KPop group’s first live-stream concert ever.

The concert will be live-streamed onto the group’s YouTube channel on 27 Dec 2020 at 2pm KSTS (1pm in Singapore).

With regards to the concert, Blackpink said they wanted to “end the year with something very special” for their fans (Blinks).

To join in the event, you can buy a membership for Blackpink’s official YouTube channel.

There are two different tiers up for purchase:

  • Standard: S$40 (USD$29.99)
  • Plus: S$53.30 (USD$39.99)

The standard package gives you access to the concert, rebroadcast perks and loyalty badges when you comment.

The plus package, however, also includes additional behind-the-scenes content. Which I’m sure true-blue fans will be going for.

Things To Expect

Other than performing your favourite Blackpink hits live, they will also be performing, for the first time, songs from their recent album, The Album, with hits like How You Like That and Ice Cream.

There will also be some special perks prepared, the group promised.

Currently, the girl group is the second-most subscribed artiste on YouTube with 54 million followers and the platform itself is psyched to be collaborating with them.

According to Lyor Cohen, who’s the global head of music at YouTube, “The Show is going to be epic”.

Cohen added that it’ll be a “wow moment” and a livestream experience that can’t be missed.

So, what do you think? Will you be going to the show?

It seems like streaming, just like for movies, could be the future of concerts.

After all, there’s no venue capacity or geographical limitation if a concert is streamed online, plus can you imagine the $$?

54 million times USD$30 gives you USD$1.6 billion. For a single concert. Imagine that.
