Congratulations, we’ve completed the first three months of 2024 – three cheers to us! If the days are starting to drag you down with them, and you’re looking for a dose of serotonin, you’ve come to the right place! I’m about to brighten your day and give you another collated list of all the concerts happening in Singapore for the year’s second quarter.
From one concert junkie to the other, this is a safe space for everyone (except for your wallets and bank accounts). I wholeheartedly understand the temporary feeling of bliss as you sing your lungs out for those few hours – the concert high is unlike any other feeling. The sense of euphoria is unmatched. So, allow me to put you onto some of the artists making their way onto our stages across languages, genres, and months. I’m ready when you are, let’s go!
April
Moon Byul 1ST WORLD TOUR [MUSEUM : an epic of starlit]
If you’ve been a fan of K-pop for the past decade, this name should ring a bell. The first artist to grace the Singapore concert stage is Moon Byul – a member of the insanely popular Korean girl group MAMAMOO. The member now turned soloist, has since built an impressive resume for herself with chart topper after chart topper! As a solo artist, Moon Byul has also proven herself time and time again as a vocalist – pivoting her talents from rapping to vocals.
Moon Byul 1ST WORLD TOUR [MUSEUM : an epic of starlit] follows the release of her third solo album: Starlit of Muse. The album houses two singles that have received a crazy amount of love – topping the iTunes Top Albums Chart across ten different regions. Even if Moon Byul isn’t your ultimate bias in MAMAMOO, you can’t deny yourself this fantastic opportunity to catch her live!

CHA EUN-WOO 2024 Just One 10 Minute [Mystery Elevator]
This should be another familiar name to many of you K-pop stans. Cha Eun Woo makes his way to Singapore for his tour: CHA EUN-WOO 2024 Just One 10 Minute [Mystery Elevator]! The world was introduced to Cha Eun Woo through his activities as a member of the boy band Astro. There, Cha Eun Woo gained popularity for his talents and dashingly charming looks.
He then dipped his toes into the acting world, further launching him into the stratosphere of popularity. With tons of viral dramas and movies under his belt, Cha Eun Woo has solidified his place as Korean entertainment royalty.
This one’s a bit different from the rest, but we had to include it because, come on, it’s Cha Eun Woo. Introduced as a “meeting show”, the affair is characterised by its concept of falling in love with Cha Eun Woo in just ten minutes. Given that he has all of us in the palm of his hands, it’s safe to say that we’ve already fallen in love with him. During the concert, fans can expect to interact with the idol through high-quality performances, where Cha Eun Woo blows us away with his talents.

Slot Machine EXIT TO ENTER WORLD TOUR 2024
The first quarter of the year saw three Thai acts and a whole music festival dedicated to Thai music. But in this quarter, we only have one Thai band coming down to Singapore, and that band is none other than Slot Machine! The band first stepped onto the scene in 2004—two whole decades ago—and has since established itself as a big player in the Thai rock band genre.
They travel to Singapore as part of their Slot Machine EXIT TO ENTER WORLD TOUR 2024. Their concert is so much more than just a concert—it’s a story. Following an Alien and Sci-Fi theme, Slot Machine is more than just a band—they’re storytellers. The tour invites fans to exit their ordinary lives and enter an exciting experience at their concert. How cool is that?
🗓️Date: 20 April 2024
📍Location: Capitol Theatre, 17 Stamford Road, S(178907)

If you wish to enter an exciting new world, one ticket to Slot Machine’s Exit to Enter World Tour is all you need! More information can be found on the official Ticketmaster website here!
IU H.E.R. WORLD TOUR CONCERT
We’re all getting spoiled by the sheer number of Korean acts this quarter. The next performer on the list is none other than the queen of K-pop herself, IU! I doubt she needs an introduction, but for those of you who have been living under a rock for the past decade, allow me to enlighten you on the cultural enigma that is IU.
IU first graced us with her presence in 2008. Thanks to her bone-chilling vocal talents and heart-swelling song lyrics, IU has claimed the title of “Korea’s Little Sister”, an affectionate title given to those who have the nation wrapped around their fingers. Even though it’s been years since her debut, IU has only grown in popularity – which is extremely uncommon in the Korean music industry. Every time IU releases anything, you best believe it’ll skyrocket to the top of the charts.
IU stops by Singapore as part of her IU H.E.R. WORLD TOUR CONCERT, following the release of her 6th mini album, “The Winning”. Dedicated fans had to survive a two-year drought of IU-less music, and their reward for staying patient came in the form of not one, but two nights of IU’s live music.
🗓️Date: 20 and 21 April 2024
📍Location: Singapore Indoor Stadium, 2 Stadium Walk, Singapore 397691
💲Price: S$178 (Excluding booking fee)
⏰Time: 5pm
Given the chokehold she has the world in, it’s no surprise that tickets to IU’s concert in Singapore have completely sold out. But there seems to be a trend of fans flying overseas to catch their idols in real life, so if I were you, and I was dying for a ticket to her show, I would check for any concert dates happening in the region and snag a seat. I wish you all the best of luck!
Boys Like Girls Spring Tour 2024
I’m proud to say that Boys Like Girls was the soundtrack of my teenhood. During my pop-punk phase, I would blast the band’s music wherever I went. And now, I’m happy to share with you that Boys Like Girls are making their highly anticipated return to Singapore in April – this is not a drill! Dust off that black leather jacket or your iconic red flannel, because they’re back and better than ever!
The band is no stranger to chart-topping hits, with songs like Love Drunk, Thunder, and Hero/Heroine under their belts. If those don’t seem to ring a bell, the band also famously sang The Great Escape—I’d bet my bottom dollar that you’ve listened to this at least once in your life.
After a long hiatus, Boys Like Girls are gracing our stage as part of their Boys Like Girls Spring Tour 2024! Seeing how popular they are and how long their hiatus was, Boys Like Girls were kind enough to add an additional date to their initial one-night show.
🗓️Date: 25 and 26 April 2024
📍Location: Capitol Theatre, 17 Stamford Road, S(178907)
💲Price: S$88 (Excluding booking fee)
⏰Time: 7pm
Unfortunately, too many of us are looking for a chance to relive our younger days, so tickets to both nights have sold out. For the lucky few of you who managed to get tickets, allow me to remind you of some wise words from the band themselves, “We’ll scream loud at the top of our lungs, and they’ll think it’s just ’cause we’re young, and we’ll feel so alive”.
2024 CNBLUE LIVE ‘CNBLUENTITY’
I’ve been an avid listener of Korean music since I was in Primary school. I remember tuning into Music Bank every Friday and waiting patiently to see my favourite idols on stage – this band is no exception! Everyone, please put your hands together for CNBLUE!
Like many of the performers on the list, CNBLUE has been on the scene for a long time. They debuted in Korea in 2010, and the rest is history. In a time when idols had complicated choreography and darted across the stage, CNBLUE chose the path few had trekked—they stood by their instruments and had fun on stage as a band.
For those who are blissfully unaware, CNBLUE’s tour: CNBLUENTITY, marks the end of the band’s seven-year hiatus! For all their fans, these past seven years have passed way too slowly. But our boys are finally back! During the concert, fans can look forward to hearing the band perform hits like LOVE GIRL, I’m Sorry, and I’m a Loner live!
🗓️Date: 27 April 2024
📍Location: Singapore Indoor Stadium, 2 Stadium Walk, Singapore 397691

George Lam first burst onto the scene in 1978, during the height of Cantopop music popularity. Having been in business for the last 46 years, it’s no surprise that he has managed to rack up an impressive portfolio.

Singapore Rockfest 2024
Let’s switch things up a bit, shall we? Technically, Singapore Rockfest 2024 isn’t a concert per se. But a festival is just a bunch of concerts meshed into one, so let’s make an exception this time. Singapore Rockfest 2024 is bringing acts like Deep Purple, Yngwie Malmsteen, Marty Friedman and All Time Low down to our sunny island for an unforgettable night of fun!
The affair—which spans nights and locations—will start with the iconic 1970s rock band Deep Purple. If you’re even remotely interested in rock music, you’ve definitely heard of Deep Purple before. The band has some of the most legendary rock anthems in their roster. Even after 50 years of producing rock anthem after rock anthem, Deep Purple is still killing it!
They’re followed by Yngwie Malmsteen and special guest Marty Friedman. Yngwie Malmsteen has made a name for himself as one of rock’s greatest guitarists of all time – and that is a big title to live up to. He is also often credited for the birth of what is now called neo-classical melodic rock! He’ll be joined on stage by Marty Friedman, the former guitarist of metal band, Megadeth. Rock the night away to the musical genius of these two guitar maestros.
To close the festival, we have All Time Low – this is a band that needs no introduction at all! I don’t know about you, but All Time Low is one of my favourite pop-punk bands. They are undoubtedly one of the most popular bands from the genre and have garnered a cult following with their upbeat and youthful music. They dominated the radio waves in the early 2010s and have continued their legacy, producing hit after hit!
Singapore Rockfest 2024 gives fans the chance to catch their favourite rockers live – everyone, say thank you!

Power Station [Because of Love] World Tour
Power Station is a name I’ve come to know, thanks to my dad. The Taiwanese rock duo are considered royalty, having pioneered the genre – elevating it to a whole new level. The story behind Power Station is the epitome of rags to riches. The duo started out performing in pubs around their city, which led to their discovery and, ultimately, their unmatched success!
Their long careers have been punctuated by chart-topping tracks, which have solidified their place in Taiwan’s Hall of Fame.

I was so happy to find out that we’ll be getting a chance to catch him live in Singapore thanks to his tour, American Boy in Asia: Alexander 23!
His lists of hits include his debut song “Dirty AF1s” and “IDK You Yet” – both of which saw great commercial success.

HWASA the 1st FANCON TOUR [Twits] in Singapore
The second MAMAMOO member taking the stage in Singapore is HWASA on her HWASA the 1st FANCON TOUR [Twits] in Singapore! Even though MAMAMOO has visited Singapore before, this will be the first time Hwasa has a fancon here—hopefully, this will be the first of many. Finger crossed!
Hwasa has had one of the most impressive solo careers I’ve ever seen. Following her wildly successful stint as a member of MAMAMOO, she had her solo debut with the release of Twit, which flew straight to the charts. If you hadn’t already known her from that, I’m sure you heard Maria, another uber-successful song of hers that strayed from the typical love song and instead preached self-love.
Hwasa has made a name for herself in her career for her loud stance on breaking stereotypes that jail other idols in the same industry. I have always admired Hwasa, and I know I’m not alone in feeling that way! Let’s all show our support to our favourite groundbreaker!

Which is why when I heard that NCT Dream was coming to Singapore, I had to mentally prepare myself for the damage that would ensue on my bank account—but anything for NCT, right? With their debut in 2016, NCT Dream swiftly ascended to global acclaim, captivating hearts across continents with their infectious melodies and captivating performances.

A Look Beyond the Second Quarter
Wu Bai & China Blue 2024 Rock Live in Singapore
Joining our list of legends coming down to Singapore is Wu Bai & China Blue! I—and many others—were made aware of the band’s existence through the wildly popular Taiwanese drama “Someday or One Day.” The drama—which featured the band’s song, Last Dance—went viral, and with it, so did Wu Bai & China Blue. Thanks to the drama’s popularity, a younger generation was introduced to them, bringing the band back into the spotlight.
Wu Bai has had a long and illustrious career. He holds the esteemed title of Asia’s King of Rock and even has a style of rock coined after him, affectionately known as “Wu-style” rock. Beyond being a great artist, one thing I love about Wu Bai is his humour and refusal to age. He keeps the rock and roll spirit alive with his don’t-give-a-damn attitude and youthful outlook on life—which is so fitting for a rock legend!

Aespa SYNK: Parallel Line
Following NCT Dream is Aespa, the last Korean artist on our list. This effectively closes the second quarter of this year! What a way to finish the next three months: a night with the ultra-talented girl group.
Aespa debuted in 2020 and seemed to fit right into the industry. From the start, they made headlines, topped the charts and forced themselves to the forefront of the entertainment industry. SM Entertainment has a thing for keeping secrets from fans because, just like NCT Dream, not much information has been released about the concert that is set to take place.
For now, all we know is that the group will start their tour in Seoul in June and head over to Japan in July.
🗓️Date: 20 July 2024
📍Location: Singapore Indoor Stadium, 2 Stadium Walk, Singapore 397691
I guess in some way, this is another blessing in disguise. The concert Gods are giving you the time to train your fingers because, with a group as popular as Aespa, I foresee the tickets selling out at the speed of light. I would keep watch of the group’s social media posts for any updates on their arrival in Singapore! Good luck, and may the fastest fingers win!
Teddy Swims: I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy Tour
As I sat in the passenger seat of my family car, Teddy Swims’ soulful vocals were enough to wrestle my attention away from my phone. And I’m not the only one; his stratospheric single Lose Control hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #4 on the Billboard Global 200, becoming many people’s earworm.
But the Atlanta-born singer-songwriter is heading to Asia, and lucky for us, Singapore is on the list! Teddy Swims: I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy Tour will host a line of concerts before featuring at the Capitol Theatre, and if you’re like me, you must be losing control from all the excitement!
🗓️Date: 23 July 2024
📍Location: Capitol Theatre, 17 Stamford Road, S(178907)
💲Price: Starting at S$78 (Excluding booking fee)
⏰Time: 8pm

And that’s it! Those are all the names of the international artists making their way to Singapore for the second quarter of this year and just a little further than that!
