The Rise World Tour is the first world tour by South Korean singer Taeyang, in support of his second studio album RISE. The tour started on August 12, 2014 in Osaka, Japan and ended on March 1, 2015 in Taiwan.

## Background

On May 30, 2014, YG Entertainment announced that Taeyang will kick off his first tour in Japan with four shows in two cities set to commence in mid-August. As soon as the concerts was announced, ticket-reservations for the tour by local fans poured in, resulting in an additional four concerts in three cities. On September 5, 2014, two shows were announced in Seoul, making it Taeyang's first solo concert in his country in four years since 2010. The two concerts in Seoul were sold out in less than ten minutes, and a third show was later added due high demand. In November 2014, nine cities across seven Asian countries were announced as a part of the world tour, including Hong Kong, China, Malaysia, Indonesia, Taiwan, Thailand and Singapore.
