The Lift goes down as soon as the pink glitter and rising smoke then the group rises to the stage to perform "Ddu-Du Ddu-Du" in silk gray outfits. On elevated platforms, Blackpink then performs "on your love" in front of a purple like backdrop. [20] After performing the two verses and the second chorus on the main stage, Blackpink returns to the platforms with dancers to sing the final part of the song. The group then greets the audience and introduces themselves on the Platforms performing "Stay" on chairs and walking to the B-stage during the final chorus. At the B-stage, the group begins "typa girl " before being accompanied by dancers and returning to the main stage at the end. The group departs the stage for a costume change.

Depending on the leg of the tour, the order of the solo performances changes. In the first Asian leg, Jisoo commences, singing "all eyes on me"on a platform. She is followed by jennie, who perform mantra her new US single and changing it to Solo at the Europe leg. Rosé is third, rising to the stage with Taylor Swift on featuring.

After the release of their GIRL EP in April 2025, Blackpink opens the next segment of the show with "SLAYS " in their pink coachella 2023 costumes. [23] The main screen features different scenes from the song's official music video as a backdrop.

Only the group remains onstage afterwards to sing the final song, "You never know"; they say goodbye to the audience before departing the stage. [24]

Critical reception

The concert received generally positive reviews from the critics. Variety drew comparisons between the all-dancing concert to Beyonce's 2018 Coachella performance, calling it "within the realm of earthly aspirational possibility" with "semi-rigid, semi-relaxed synchronization" and "major charm offensive from four quintessential Girls Next Door". [24] Evan Real, writing for The Hollywood Reporter , stated that the girl group delivered "impressive vocals, dancing" that "not even the stage's extravagant light display or frequent bursts of fireworks could pull the group's focus from their exceptionally polished routine". [25] Billboard described the concert as "hugely engaging" and applauded Blackpink's "remarkably natural aura" as opposed to the usual rigidity that K-pop concerts usually have, thanks to the group's improvisations and audience interaction. However, the magazine criticized the solo performances, calling Lisa's dance number "as baffling as it was boring" and Jisoo's cover of Clarity "uncomfortably close to a filler". [20] [26] The Guardian shared similar sentiments regarding the solo segment and gave the concert three stars out of five, stating that while the show had "brilliant moments throughout", it did not "take enough risks". [21] On the other hand, Jan Lee of The Straits Times felt the solo performances were enjoyable and the concert's energy was infectious; he described the members of Blackpink as "exuberant, charming and visually stunning onstage", though he felt the show needed more original material from the group.
