Big Bang concert chronology

Japan Dome Tour was the fourth Japanese concert tour by South Korean band Big Bang. The tour visited six of Japan's major concert domes, making Big Bang the first foreign artists to headline their own six-Dome tour. One of the country's highest-grossing concert tours of the year, it grossed over US$70.6 million from sixteen shows, with all of the tickets for the tour sold out.[1]

Concert

The concert kicked off with the Japanese version of Big Bang's "Haru Haru", and the song was followed by "Blue", and "Bad Boy", and then Big Bang's Japanese debut single, "Gara Gara Go". As the scale of the stadium is immense, Big Bang used a flying stage that enables the entire stage to move, while also using a moving car that allows all five members to go closer to the fans. The three-hour-long concert encompassed more than 30 songs, including encore and re-encore.

Big Bang+α in Seoul

On November 28, 2013, a new two shows for the tour was announced, under the name of Big Bang+α in Seoul, it will held on Seoul.[2] Both show sold out within second after the release, which lead to another show adding due the fans demand.[3]
