TWICE is rolling back into Dallas this weekend for a double shot at the American Airlines Center, bringing their "This Is For" world tour and an ambitious 360-degree stage setup. The nine-member group is set to blend fresh solo material, fan-favorite hits and a movie tie-in single from the animated sensation "K-Pop Demon Hunters." For North Texas ONCEs, it feels like a homecoming: this is the first Dallas stop in nearly three years and one of the rare two-night arena runs on the tour.
The group is scheduled to perform Saturday, Jan. 31 and Sunday, Feb. 1, with shows set for the evening; exact door and start times are posted on the venue site, so fans will want to double-check before heading out. According to the American Airlines Center, both headline nights will take over the arena in Victory Park.
360-degree production raises the stakes
This leg of the tour is built around a 360-degree, in-the-round stage that lets the members face and move toward fans in every section of the building. Nayeon has described the format as a chance to "connect with ONCEs from every angle," and bandmates say the configuration forced them to rethink staging and sightlines from the ground up, according to an interview with NME. That extra ambition is a big part of why this run plays more like a full-scale arena production than a standard pop tour stop.
Movie tie-ins and a credit-track moment
Several TWICE members also lent their vocals to the soundtrack of the animated hit "K-Pop Demon Hunters," with the end-credits version of "Takedown" featuring Jeongyeon, Jihyo and Chaeyoung. The crossover has helped introduce the group to new listeners, industry press notes say, and the film's soundtrack push has been cited as a factor in TWICE's recent streaming momentum. People reports that the trio's take on "Takedown" has pulled in more than 277 million Spotify streams, underscoring how the movie-meets-pop pairing is feeding interest in the tour; see People and the Dallas Observer for more.
From survival-show hopefuls to festival headliners
Since debuting in 2015, TWICE has turned tight choreography and sticky singles into a global touring profile that now includes stadium shows and major festival main stages. A recent milestone was a Lollapalooza headlining set in Chicago, a sign of how K-pop acts have moved squarely into the mainstream festival circuit, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. That trajectory helps explain why Dallas landed two consecutive nights on the itinerary instead of a quick in-and-out stop.
What Dallas ONCEs should expect
In a Q&A ahead of the run, the group told the Dallas Observer they remember Texas shows for their volume and participation. Momo said the state's "energy and atmosphere" in 2023 gave the group "so much joy and motivation on stage," while Dahyun praised how interactive local fans are, saying that back-and-forth helps make the shows feel especially alive. Chaeyoung also teased a U.S.-only surprise song that did not appear in phase one of the tour, which means Dallas could be among the first audiences to hear it. Taken together, those hints point to a set that blends new solo moments with beloved hits and a few curveballs tailored for arena crowds.
Getting in and getting around
The American Airlines Center recommends arriving early, with doors often opening about 90 minutes before showtime. The event page lists the venue's camera and bag policies along with parking and transit guidance, so a quick pre-trip check is worth the effort. The arena sits in Victory Park with access to DART and multiple nearby lots; visit the American Airlines Center and Visit Dallas for details on entry times and suggested routes. Fans with accessibility needs are encouraged to contact the venue in advance to confirm seating options and entry procedures.
Tickets and resale
Official tickets are available through Live Nation and the arena's ticketing partners, while resale inventory is circulating on marketplaces like Tixel, so buyers should prioritize verified sellers to steer clear of scams. Live Nation event pages currently show availability for both nights, and secondary platforms such as Tixel may list last-minute seats at variable prices. If you are coming in from outside the area, it is worth budgeting extra time for traffic and the usual post-show congestion.
Two nights of TWICE in Dallas add up to a rare chance to catch new solo material, a 360-degree spectacle and possibly a surprise moment only the arena crowd will hear. Whether you are a day-one ONCE or just K-pop curious, the weekend is shaping up to be loud, bright and tough to forget.
