South Korean rock band FTISLAND is preparing to close out 2026 with a special year-end concert, giving fans another opportunity to celebrate the group’s music and long-standing connection with its audience.

Titled “2026 FTISLAND CONCERT ‘FTSODE,’” the upcoming two-day event will take place in Seoul this December.

On October 27, FNC Entertainment announced that FTISLAND will perform at Myunghwa Live Hall on December 26 and 27.

The concert will bring together the band’s signature hits and songs that hold special meaning for the members and their fans, with a distinctive concept designed to turn the performance into a musical journey.

The annual concert has become a special occasion for the group and its fandom, PRIMADONNA.

This year’s edition promises to revisit the band’s musical history while creating new memories as the year comes to an end.

FTISLAND Reveals Dates and Concept for “FTSODE”

The 2026 concert will be held over two days at Myunghwa Live Hall in Seoul.

The first performance is scheduled for December 26 at 6 PM KST, followed by the second show on December 27 at 5 PM KST. Each concert is expected to run for approximately 120 minutes.

The title “FTSODE” combines the band’s name, FTISLAND, with the word “episode.”

The concept reflects the idea that every song released by the group represents an individual story, with all those musical episodes coming together to form the larger narrative of FTISLAND’s career.

Now in its fourth year, the concert will use a fictional destination called Gangsan Island as its central theme.

The venue and performance concept will invite audiences to imagine themselves exploring an island filled with musical landmarks and hidden destinations.

The band’s best-known songs will serve as the island’s major landmarks, while tracks carrying special significance for the members and longtime fans will be represented as hidden spots.

Through this creative approach, the concert aims to offer more than a conventional live performance, allowing audiences to revisit different moments in FTISLAND’s musical journey.

The promotional poster introduces members Lee Hong Gi, Lee Jae Jin and Choi Min Hwan as employees of the fictional “ROYAL HOTEL.”

Dressed in hotel uniforms against a classic hotel-lobby backdrop, the members create an elegant, slightly vintage atmosphere that complements the concert’s imaginative setting.

Ticket sales will take place through NOL Ticket.

Presales for eligible PRIMADONNA membership holders are scheduled to begin on November 2, while general ticket sales will open on November 5.

The official ticketing announcement provides additional information about membership verification and purchase limits.

FTISLAND Continues a Busy Year With More Fan Events

The year-end concert arrives after a busy 2026 for FTISLAND.

The band renewed its contracts with FNC Entertainment in January, reaffirming its relationship with the agency as it continued its musical activities.

Earlier this year, the group toured 11 cities through its “2026 FTISLAND TOUR 0 – XIX – III FaTe,” bringing its live performances to fans in different locations.

The band also released its 21st Japanese single, “Lemonade,” in September, adding another release to its extensive discography.

December will be particularly significant for fans in Japan as well. Before the Seoul concert, FTISLAND is scheduled to hold “FTISLAND Special Christmas Mini Concert 2026 – A WINTER’S NIGHT with TEAM FTISLAND” at PACIFICO Yokohama on December 24.

The event will give Japanese fans an opportunity to celebrate Christmas Eve with the band.

With performances planned in both Japan and South Korea, FTISLAND is set to end the year with a series of fan-focused events.

The Seoul concert’s Gangsan Island concept also offers a way to reflect on the group’s history, connecting familiar songs with memories shared by the band and its audience.

For PRIMADONNA, “FTSODE” represents another chance to experience FTISLAND’s music in a setting designed around the stories behind its songs.

As the December dates approach, anticipation will continue to build for the band’s annual year-end gathering.
