Scouring the internet looking for a list of K-pop concerts happening in London or the UK this August? We’re here to share the sad news with you that there’s not one K-pop concert in the UK this month.

In July we saw the likes of Billlie, Balming Tiger (after their Glastonbury stint) and I.M of Monsta X hold concerts in London. We even saw Stray Kids and Nmixx take to Hyde Park for a very special BST Hyde Park Festival.

But this month we’re afraid the number of concerts will be reduced right down to zero. This seems to be a trend, especially with K-pop in the UK, with August typically being a lower period of activity. Summer, especially August, has more of a focus on festivals rather than concerts, contributing to the seasonal dip in gig activity.

Don’t feel too down about it though, because just like last year in 2023, September and October will be HUGE months for K-pop concerts in the UK. In September we will be getting a visit from THE BOYZ, B.D.U, SUHO of EXO and Dynamic Duo. In October, expect to see DPR, Artms and Bang Yongguk - and we wouldn’t be surprised if there’s still some concerts yet to be announced.

So if you’re wondering - are there any K-pop concerts in the UK in August? The answer is sadly no, there are no K-pop concerts in the UK this month. But perhaps this is a blessing in disguise so we can all save our money for the busy months September and October are shaping up to be.
