Stadio Olimpico, opened in 1953, is a venue known for hosting numerous international sports events, including the Summer Universiade, World Athletics Championships, FIFA World Cup, and UEFA Champions League. It is also the home stadium for Serie A teams AS Roma and SS Lazio. Renowned artists like Claudio Baglioni, U2, Muse, and Coldplay have performed here.

With a seating capacity of over 70,000, the stadium was completely sold out, making this concert the largest K-pop event ever held in Rome. Stray Kids also achieved a record by selling out all eight stadium shows across six European cities, including Amsterdam's Johan Cruyff Arena, Frankfurt's Deutsche Bank Park, London's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Madrid's Cívitas Metropolitano, Paris's Stade de France, and Rome's Stadio Olimpico.

The group delivered a 180-minute performance filled with their signature tracks and diverse genre songs, showcasing their musical identity. Each of the eight members participated in creating unit songs, and they engaged with the audience by moving around the stadium and singing Korean lyrics together with fans.

Concluding their largest-ever world tour with 54 shows across 34 cities, Stray Kids expressed their heartfelt gratitude, saying, "Today being the last show of our European tour, it feels truly special. Rome is known as the 'Eternal City,' and we hope the love between Stray Kids and STAY will be eternal as well. We've relied on each other and, most importantly, on the energy of STAY to keep performing. We hope this concert becomes a memorable scene in your lives."

After an 11-month journey across five continents, Stray Kids have set numerous records with their '< dominATE >' world tour. As they close this chapter, they are set to release their 4th studio album 'KARMA' on the 22nd.
