BIGBANG released the digital single ‘BiiiG’ at 6 p.m. on August 19, 2026, to commemorate the group’s 20th debut anniversary. It is the group’s first new song in approximately four years and four months since ‘Still Life,’ and has been described as a high-energy hip-hop track connecting the individual styles of G-DRAGON, TAEYANG, and D-LITE.
Key Changes
According to YG Entertainment’s official discography, ‘BiiiG’ is a digital single. G-DRAGON wrote the lyrics, while KUSH, G-DRAGON, IDO, TARZZAN, lil aaron, Kaine, 24, and TEDDY are credited as composers.
YG highlighted the song’s grand hip-hop beat and addictive hook. The official music video can be viewed through the original player: [BIGBANG ‘BiiiG’ Official Music Video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8ZnXgbyUuc)
The first change in this project is that the 20th-anniversary group song has actually been released.
Current Status
BIGBANG launched the ‘BIGBANG 2026-2027 WORLD TOUR <XX : COSMOS>’ at Goyang Stadium from August 21 to 23, 2026. YG Entertainment explained that ‘XX’ symbolizes the 20 years since the group’s debut, while ‘COSMOS’ represents the connection between the past, present, and future created by the group and its fans.
The official tour page lists the following overall scale and key subsequent dates.
| Item | Officially confirmed information |
|---|---|
| Overall scale | 19 cities and 33 shows in total, scheduled through February 2027 |
| Goyang | Three shows from August 21–23, 2026, marked sold out |
| Next dates | Auckland on September 4–5, 2026, and East Rutherford on September 11 |
| Subsequent dates | Paris, London, Taipei, Singapore, Hanoi, Sydney, Bangkok, Hong Kong, and major dome shows in Japan, among others |

Impact
The tour has been described as BIGBANG’s first world tour as a group in nine years. Following the new-song release and opening shows in Goyang, the schedule continues with overseas and Japanese performances in late 2026, followed by Asian dates in January and February 2027.
However, the ticketing status for individual shows on the official tour page may change. No source confirming that all shows are sold out was found; the currently verifiable sold-out listings are the three Goyang shows.
Next Checkpoint
The next dates to monitor are the Auckland shows on September 4–5, 2026, and the East Rutherford show on September 11. Ticket availability and performance details should be checked again on BIGBANG’s official tour page shortly before publication.
