K-Pop İstanbul Festival 2 – KARD & YOUNG POSSE
LAST DAY FOR 2ND-PHASE TICKETS: 1 SEPTEMBER
Two of the most exciting groups in K-Pop, KARD and YOUNG POSSE, come to İstanbul on 6 September 2025!
Last year’s first K-Pop İstanbul Festival at Life Park, with Dreamcatcher and Purple Kiss, drew nearly 10,000 excited fans. This year the festival returns with even more energy and a strong line-up.
KARD: a group that dazzles on stage
Standing out in K-Pop as a four-member co-ed group, KARD have won global success with Latin-tinged rhythms, strong vocals and dynamic stage shows. Known for hits such as “Hola Hola”, “Don’t Recall”, “Oh NaNa”, “Dumb Litty” and “Ring The Alarm”, they built their international following on tours of the Americas and Europe. With music videos viewed millions of times on YouTube and huge streaming numbers, KARD are one of the strongest names in global K-Pop, and many of their concerts sell out soon after going on sale. The İstanbul show will be a special moment for their fans in Turkey.
YOUNG POSSE: rising energy
Opening for KARD is YOUNG POSSE, a five-member girl group launched in 2023 by DSP Media and Beats Entertainment. With an energetic hip-hop and R&B sound, their first mini album Macaroni Cheese and the “Hot Potential Award” they won in 2024, Sunhye, Yeonjung, Jiana, Doeun and Jieun quickly made their name. Known for fun choreography and their own rap parts, YOUNG POSSE will warm up the Life Park stage at their first concert in Turkey.
