From Xikers to Hearts2Hearts, several K-pop acts join lineup
Several K-pop artists are set to take the stage at the Wango Tango music festival in California in May.
On May 10, 102.7 KIIS FM's Wango Tango will be held at Huntington City Beach, California. Hosted by iHeartRadio, the largest radio network in the US, Wango Tango began in 1998 and has since featured world-renowned musicians, delivering spectacular performances that have captivated fans of popular music. This year's event marks the first Wango Tango in three years, since the last event in Carson, California, in June 2022.
This year's lineup includes global pop stars Doja Cat, Meghan Trainor and Gwen Stefani, alongside K-pop acts Xikers, Nmixx, Hearts2Hearts and Katseye.
Prior to the festival appearance, Nmixx is set to release the group's fourth mini album, "Fe3O4: Forward," on March 17. Meanwhile, Xikers will kick off the "Road to XY: Enter the Gate" world tour in May, with performances planned across the US and Japan.
SM Entertainment rookie group Hearts2Hearts debuted on Feb. 24 and secured a spot in the lineup of this major international music festival in less than two weeks, as a testament to the group's quick popularity.
Additionally, A20 May, a multinational girl group consisting of two American and three Chinese members, will also perform at the festival. The group debuted in late December last year and was launched by Lee Soo-man, the founder of K-pop powerhouse SM Entertainment, after his departure from the company.
Tickets go on sale first to KIIS Club VIP members on Thursday, with general sales beginning Friday.
