Seattle – Ateez, who became a leader in the industry and was also inspired by aspiring and current K-Pop idol, made his second appearance on the Tacoma Dome on the 2025 World Tour titled “Your Fantasy.”
The eight-member group caught fire with more than 20 songs, including individual stages and full group performances.
The group has been recognized and topped the list globally, but local fans love them even more special.
What are they talking about:
“Their music, their dance and their energy, but most importantly, I like how much they care about their fans and how much dedication they put into their work,” Diana Chavez said.
“I absolutely love Ateez. I became a fan immediately as KQ Fellaz in Pre debug. Their energy, charm, sound and choreography attracted me,” explains Darnita Howard.
Jordan Alcantara added: “I like a lot of things about them, but of what I like the most, their performance is high standards and the way they push themselves to tell stories. Their creativity and craftsmanship are at the highest level.”
Ateez released their latest album, Golden Hour: Part 3 – In Your Fantasy Edition, on July 11, led by the championship track “Lemon Drop”, after their contact with company KQ Entertainment renewed their contacts and signed on to bring more music to fans in the coming years.

When local fans heard that Ateez would return to the state on their latest tour, they knew they had to be there.
“I'm so happy to hear that they're going back to the dome, and their comments on their fond memories of Tacoma last year made me proud of living here,” said Jessa Forsythe-Crane, who performed last year.
Tacoma Dome told Fox 13 that more than 12,000 tickets were sold.
The group fans' name Atiny appears on the clothes and according to the music video concept and the fanatic's internal jokes, handheld light fixtures.
From the moment the members came on stage, thousands of fans sang, sang and shouted with the music.
Ateez started the show with a crowd favorite “Bouncy”, a song that has attracted worldwide attention and shows why they are considered inspiration for top performers and other idols.

The band performed solo songs throughout the show with high energy performances for talent displays for fans to appreciate.
Diana explained: “All solos are my favorites. Every song has its own energy that cannot even be explained. It's such a beautiful feeling that makes me emotionally excited.”
Accompanied by dancers, props and even fire, the stage was filled with movement, and fans stood at their feet throughout the performance over two hours.
Ateez doesn’t leave the stage for a constant change, and as the tour video plays during short breaks, fans always have something to enjoy.
“Ateez's performance is always 110%. Every song and every dance is bigger than life. Every performance is filled with unlimited energy…their performances are beyond my imagination,” said Mikkell Roeland, who decided to take part in the show after hearing the latest album.
A group that started in a small and brand new entertainment company performed new and old hits, which shows how much effort and dedication can bring to you.
One thing fans can agree with outside of music and talent is that Ateez is more than just a K-Pop group.
Fan Brandy Larson added: “What I like about Ateez is that they always make Atiny feel included in the group and make sure we know that they are with us no matter we are in life, whether it’s struggle and success.”
After Tacoma stopped, the group headed for California’s next show in San Jose on August 2, ending the North American part of the “Your Fantasy” tour in Mexico City on August 23.
