KPOPLUX SBS SUPER CONCERT IN MADRID

 

 

LVCG PLC is delighted to announce that the KPOPLUX SBS Super Concert in Madrid
that was held on Saturday 22(nd) July 2023 was a success with hugely positive
feedback from fans and media from around the world.

The Civitas Metropolitano was host to fans, not only from Spain but also from
Italy, Portugal, France, other European countries, and more globally from
South America, Asia - showing the extensive global reach of KPOP.

SHINee, ATEEZ, CRAVITY, STAYC, ENHYPHEN, IVE and xikeres performed to the
largest KPOP audience in Spain.  Fans lit up the stadium with their
lightsticks -  the majorty turning to blue for SHINee in respect to the three
legends when they took to the stage last.  A local dance group warmed up the
crowd with interactive random dance play.

 

The concert also attracted huge interest on social media before, during and
after the concert with #kpoplux trending at 16.8 million views and
#kpopluxmadrid at 13.1M views.

 

On the back of the Madrid concert we have received several additional requests
for Streaming, and the Company have released a special discount code to all
ticket holders for 50% for 48 hours - this will be released later today by
Ticketmaster Spain.

 

The Company will provide further detailed updates in due course and an event
summary will be posted on the Company's web-site in the coming days.
Furthermore, planning for the London launch is underway and an announcement
will be made shortly.

 

Chairman David Ciclitira commented: "On Saturday we saw the largest KPOP event
in Spain which was a tremendous launch for what is a 4-year project and we
thoroughly endorse what our SBS colleagues have said about South America and
will be continuing to look at possibilities to bring a KPOPLUX SBS Super
Concert to South America."

 

SBS - deputy head of department Mr Kim commented:

 

"Following on from the biggest record in Europe made on last year's Germany
concert, this Spain concert was a great success. Spain is well known for
difficulty to have a successful K-POP concerts as no K-POP artists have
gathered more than 10,000 audiences in the past even though they are famous
K-Pop artists. However, SBS Super Concert proved KPOP's popularity. Following
on, he also commented that "We are getting request to do a Super Concert in
Brazil and South Americas. We are planning to use this Spain concert as head
bridge to perform at South America too."
