The tour received generally positive reviews from critics, who highlighted the tour's large-scale production and the group's sustained performance quality. PEP.ph described the Philippine Arena concert as a "dazzling, high-energy show", noting that the 360-degree stage design created a "vast sea of lightsticks" and enhanced audience immersion.[19]Billboard Philippines reported strong crowd engagement at the group's Bulacan performance, citing extensive fan participation and positive audience response despite Jeongyeon's absence due to health concerns.[20] The Daily Tribune praised the "stunning" stage design and the setlist, calling the Philippine Arena show a "once-in-a-lifetime experience".[21]ABS-CBN News described the concert as a "dazzling feast for the senses", highlighting the production's 360-degree stage, moving platforms, and live band.[22]The Straits Times highlighted the elaborate stage design and Twice's commanding performance.[23]
Commercial performance
The tour achieved significant commercial success, becoming one of Twice's highest-grossing concert tours. According to box-office data submitted to Pollstar, the first 24 reported shows sold 671,888 tickets and generated $93.8 million in gross revenue, averaging 27,995 attendees and $3.9 million per show.[9] In Oceania, the tour achieved record-breaking sales, selling over 50,000 tickets across four arena performances in Sydney and Melbourne, making it the best-selling K-pop arena tour in the region to date.[24]
The tour's Kaohsiung stops marked the first time that Twice performed in Taiwan.[25] The two-day concert reportedly generated over NT$500 million (US$15.9 million) in tourism-related revenue for the city. The event increased pressure on urban infrastructure, and ridership on the Saturday of the concert weekend resulted in the city's metro system recording 350,000 riders, its highest single-day ridership of the year. Local businesses extended hours and reported significantly increased traffic and sales.[26][27]
Twice is set to become the first foreign artist to headline a concert at the Japan National Stadium, with the three shows expected to have a total audience of 240,000.[28]
