BIGBANG Celebrates 20th Anniversary with New Global Fan Community on b.stage
On April 12th, BIGBANG took the stage at the '2026 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival' in California, performing a 67-minute set featuring 17 songs. The setlist included hits like 'Bang Bang Bang', 'Fantastic Baby', and 'Haru Haru', along with solo performances such as Taeyang's 'Ringa Linga', G-Dragon's 'Power', and Daesung's 'Limitless'. After wrapping up their second-week performance on April 19th, the group announced plans for a 20th-anniversary tour and established an official communication channel with fans.
The official community, which opened on April 21st at 8:19 PM, serves as a space where members can directly share activity updates and content. Fans can interact through the message boards, and information about the group's activities, including the upcoming global tour, will be released here sequentially.
Members G-Dragon, Taeyang, and Daesung have previously operated individual communities on b.stage. With the group community now available on the same platform, fans can access both solo and group activity updates in one place, enhancing accessibility.
At Coachella, BIGBANG stated, "The 20th anniversary of BIGBANG in 2026 has just begun. Stay tuned for big events coming your way." The b.stage fan community is expected to be the central hub for the upcoming global tour and 20th-anniversary projects.
A representative from b.stage expressed, "We are thrilled to provide b.stage as a fan communication hub for BIGBANG's group activities, following their solo endeavors. In this special 20th anniversary year, we will do our utmost to support BIGBANG fans worldwide in gathering in one space and experiencing the upcoming global tour and various projects together."
