MONSTA X will hold the Japan encore performance of “2026 MONSTA X WORLD TOUR [THE X : NEXUS] ENCORE IN JAPAN” for two days, on Tuesday, December 8 and Wednesday, December 9, 2026, at Pia Arena MM. The world tour “2026 MONSTA X WORLD TOUR [THE X : NEXUS],” which started in January 2026 from KSPO DOME in Seoul, South Korea, is touring Asia and Latin America and will continue on to North America in the future. As a Japan encore performance that connects that excitement, MONSTA X will stand on the stage of Pia Arena MM for two days, December 8 and 9. In Japan, “2026 MONSTA X WORLD TOUR [THE X : NEXUS] IN JAPAN” was held this April and May, with a total of four performances at LaLa Arena TOKYO-BAY and Ookini Arena Maishima. The newly announced “ENCORE IN JAPAN” is the final solo performance in Japan for 2026, following those Japan performances, and is an encore performance delivered not merely as a reproduction of the Japan performances held in spring, but as the culmination of the world tour. Expectations are rising for what kind of new stage MONSTA X, after going through the tour so far, will show. At MONSTA X JAPAN OFFICIAL FANCLUB “MONBEBE JAPAN,” the earliest ticket pre-sale reception for members is planned. Ticket prices and ticket details, including the earliest pre-sale reception for “MONBEBE JAPAN,” are scheduled to be announced on Tuesday, September 22, 2026. ■Performance outline “2026 MONSTA X WORLD TOUR [THE X : NEXUS] ENCORE IN JAPAN” Tuesday, December 8, 2026, doors open 17:00 / show starts 18:00 Wednesday, December 9, 2026, doors open 17:00 / show starts 18:00 <Venue> Pia Arena MM (Kanagawa) 3-2-2 Minatomirai, Nishi-ku, Yokohama-shi, Kanagawa Prefecture <Ticket information> Details scheduled to be announced on Tuesday, September 22, 2026 (national holiday) *Other details will be announced in sequence. *Performance contents are subject to change without notice. ■Related link MONSTA X official Japanese homepage ■Performance outline “2026 MONSTA X WORLD TOUR [THE X : NEXUS] ENCORE IN JAPAN” Tuesday, December 8, 2026, doors open 17:00 / show starts 18:00 Wednesday, December 9, 2026, doors open 17:00 / show starts 18:00 <Venue> Pia Arena MM (Kanagawa) 3-2-2 Minatomirai, Nishi-ku, Yokohama-shi, Kanagawa Prefecture <Ticket information> Details scheduled to be announced on Tuesday, September 22, 2026 (national holiday) *Other details will be announced in sequence. *Performance contents are subject to change without notice. ■Related link MONSTA X official Japanese homepage
