Girl group Blackpink’s “Born Pink” world tour will be screened in theaters starting July 31, marking its eighth anniversary as a group, its agency YG Entertainment said Friday.

The film, titled “Blackpink World Tour [Born Pink] In Cinemas,” will showcase the group’s live performance at the last concert of the world tour, held at Gocheok Sky Dome in western Seoul on Sept. 17, 2023.

The film will be released in 110 countries, including the United States, Britain, Mexico and Indonesia.

The group’s film will be available in various screening formats such as 4DX and ScreenX, featuring large screens, moving chairs, special effects and enhanced sound, according to its agency.

The film is scheduled to run for over three weeks, its agency said.

“Born Pink” commenced in October 2022 and included 66 performances across 34 cities worldwide, attended by 1.8 million fans.

The tour concluded in Seoul with two concerts on Sept. 16 and 17 at Gocheok Sky Dome, where Blackpink became the first K-pop girl group to sell out one of Korea's largest music venues.

Last year, Blackpink was also the first K-pop act to headline the U.S. music festival Coachella and the Hyde Park British Summer Time Festival.

Blackpink’s four members — Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé and Lisa — signed exclusive contracts with YG Entertainment in December for group activities, but did not renew their contracts with the agency for solo careers.

Jennie, Jisoo and Lisa established their own management companies named Odd Atelier, Lloud and Blissoo, respectively.

Rosé announced on Tuesday that she signed a management contract with The Black Label, a label founded by producer Teddy.
