The K-pop star will perform in Dubai early next year.
Jackson Wang may have risen to fame as a member of K-pop boy band Got7, but now it’s time for his moment solo in the spotlight as he prepares to kick off his first ever world tour on 26 November in Bangkok, Thailand. As part of his Magic Man world tour, the Chinese artist will make his way to Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, London and Paris before performing in Dubai on 4 February, 2023.
As a solo artist, Jackson is the first Chinese solo singer to perform on the Coachella main stage. His latest album MAGIC MAN ranked Top 15 on Billboard 200 and Top 13 on Billboard Artist 100 in 2022. “MAGIC MAN is the ultimate form of oneself, having gone through different peaks and valleys of life to arrive at the most authentic version. Everyone is able to become their own form of MAGIC MAN. It’s not a mystery, everything is just magic,” said Jackson.
“Jackson has taken the music world by storm and AEG is thrilled to present his first ever international headline tour. Jackson’s irresistible stage presence combined with a world-class production will deliver an unforgettable experience for fans,” said Adam Wilkes, President & CEO of AEG Asia. The tour announcement follows the wildly successful sophomore album MAGIC MAN, which is out now. The album features ten tracks – including the newly released “Blue” and previously released “Blow” and “Cruel” – both of which were described as having “a dark and plodding swagger” by People magazine.
Inspired by 70s rock, MAGIC MAN is an energetic and gritty exploration of toxic love and self-discovery, allowing the artist to showcase a side of him that his fans have never seen. Produced by Jackson Wang, Daryl K, and Henry Cheung, MAGIC MAN finds Jackson at his most vulnerable – operating under the laws of mystery, temptation and confusion. As a globally acclaimed artist and a creative director, Jackson’s goal is to showcase a Chinese-influenced sound on the international music stage and highlight Chinese and Asian culture worldwide. Ticketing details for all cities are expected shortly.
