Asia’s Pop King Leehom has officially launched his brand-new tour, “Best Place II,” and it has already broken stunning records. In the very first second of ticket sales, approximately one million fans rushed simultaneously to purchase 100,000 tickets, which sold out instantly — marking the strongest opening sales performance of the year. Social media platforms were immediately flooded with calls for additional shows, with Taiwanese fans exclaiming: “Is Taipei Dome just around the corner?”
Building on last year’s glorious achievement of selling out all 57 tour dates, Leehom has once again elevated the scale of this tour, this time going fully toward large-scale outdoor stadium concerts across Asia, with both ambition and magnitude taking a significant leap forward. Yesterday, he released a teaser trailer to over 90 million global followers across Instagram, Facebook, Weibo, Douyin, Xiaohongshu, and WeChat Video, instantly igniting widespread buzz. The stage and production design revealed in the trailer left fans in awe — what fans are calling an “omnidirectional stage” immersive design promises to deliver an unprecedented, futuristic concert experience.
This production is widely regarded as Leehom’s most ambitious undertaking to date. Long celebrated for blending technology with music, he has pushed creativity and engineering to their limits this time, realizing what fans have long imagined in terms of leading the concert industry forward. Industry observers note that “Best Place II” not only meets international top-tier standards in scale, but its market response also demonstrates that Mandopop has entered the global box office mainstream.
With the first round of tickets selling out in seconds, the Hangzhou leg is expected to quickly announce an additional show, potentially releasing another 50,000 tickets. At an average ticket price of approximately NT$5,550, a single weekend’s box office could easily surpass NT$800 million. This phenomenon once again confirms that even as the AI wave sweeps across every industry, the live concert economy remains irreplaceable — and is reaching unprecedented new heights.
For Taiwanese fans, the most pressing question has now shifted to: when will “Best Place II” come to Taipei Dome? As market enthusiasm continues to soar, the possibility of this top-tier production making its way to Taipei is heating up rapidly!
