Stray Kids Thrills 45,000 Fans as Headliner at Governors Ball 2026

Stray Kids performed as the headliner on the second day of 'The Governors Ball Music Festival 2026' at Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens, New York on June 6 (local time). Approximately 45,000 fans gathered despite severe weather conditions in the New York area. The festival, which began in 2011 and is one of New York's largest outdoor music festivals, featured global stars including Lorde, A$AP Rocky, and JENNIE, with all three days of performances sold out early this year. Stray Kids opened with a grand anthem and performed hit songs including 'TOPLINE', '특' (Special), 'MANIAC', and 'DOMINO'. Notably, during performances of '신선놀음' (Divine Play), 'Walkin On Water', and '神메뉴' (God's Menu), they showcased Oriental-concept performances using traditional Korean scarves and landscape paintings, showcasing Korean aesthetics to the world. After delivering a 90-minute performance, Stray Kids have now successfully completed major global festivals including Lollapalooza Paris, i-Days, British Summer Time Hyde Park, and Lollapalooza Chicago. They are scheduled to perform at Brazil's Rock in Rio on September 11 and will meet global fans through the new festival 'STRAYCITY' in Bogota, Buenos Aires, and Mexico City.
