Monsta X concert chronology

No Limit Tour, also known as Monsta X Tour: No Limit, is the fourth concert tour by the South Korean boy group Monsta X following their successful online live concert Live From Seoul With Luv in 2020, and their first since We Are Here World Tour in 2019, due to COVID-19 pandemic. Originally, it was supposed to be a U.S. tour only, which started on May 21, six months after the release of their ninth EP No Limit, presented by Lexus, kicking off in New York, and then visiting eight more states including Virginia, Michigan, Illinois, Florida, Georgia, Texas, Arizona, and California. On a later date, Seoul had been added.

Background

2020

Starship Entertainment released the teaser poster for Monsta X's world tour through the group's official SNS channel on January 13, with their first performance to be held in Seoul, at the Olympic Gymnastics Arena from May 9 to 10.[1]

On April 6, the agency posted a notice on its official Twitter that the Seoul concert in May had been cancelled due to concerns about the spread of COVID-19, and they would secure a new Seoul concert schedule while monitoring the situation.[2]

In May, Starship Entertainment announced that their North American tour, which was scheduled to be held in the U.S. and Canada from June to July, is temporarily postponed. This decision was made to protect the health of the audience, artists, and staff.[3]

On July 14, Monsta X had decided to hold an overseas tour, which has been postponed due to COVID-19, in the end of next year. Their agency announced this news through their official SNS.[4]

On August 9, Monsta X held their first online live concert Live From Seoul With Luv, presented by LiveXLive (now LiveOne).[5][6]

2021

As announced from last year, Monsta X was scheduled to hold their world tour in the U.S. and Canada, beginning April 20 until May 21, and will be visiting fourteen cities, starting in Washington, D.C. and then hold their final concert in Los Angeles.[7]

As it was postponed for the second time, Monsta X released their first documentary film and concert film Monsta X: The Dreaming to appease the disappointment of the face-to-face meeting with their fans, who are limited by the current situation.[8]

After postponing their planned North American tour twice due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Monsta X announced the new dates, beginning January 20 until February 27, and will be visiting thirteen cities, starting in New York and then hold their final concert in Los Angeles.[9]

After the postponement at a later date, Monsta X successfully conducted their U.S. tour in three years, which began on May 21 until June 11, starting in New York and then held their final concert in Los Angeles.[10]

In September, Monsta X held their Seoul tour for three days, at the SK Olympic Handball Gymnasium located at Seoul Olympic Park, on September 2, 3, and 4.[11]

Commercial performance

The tour gathered 29,229 attendees, with a gross sales of $3,302,773 for five reported shows out of thirteen total shows.

Impact

Monsta X earned their highest grossing concert of all time, with $1,318,000 from 11,600 tickets sold at Kia Forum in Inglewood, California on June 11.[12]
