## Trivia

* During the show in Los Angeles, they performed "Whistle (Acoustic ver.)" instead of the original version. During the encore stage, "Stay" was performed instead of "Hope Not".
* During the first show in Newark, Dua Lipa joined Blackpink to perform "Kiss and Make Up".
* During the show in Manchester, Blackpink modified elements of their performances with due respect to the approaching 2nd anniversary of the Manchester Arena bombing incident. \*Specifically, "Ddu-Du Ddu-Du" was removed from the setlist, "Whistle" lyrics and "Kill This Love" choreography were changed. During the encore stage, Blackpink dedicated "Stay" to the victims and those affected by the attack; another performance of "Don't Know What To Do" was added along with the original setlist.
* During the show in Melbourne and Sydney, Rosé added "Coming Home" to her solo medley performance. This could be because she grew up in these two locations.
* During the show in Sydney, "Stay" was added to the encore performance. This was mostly because Jisoo claimed that she was unable to walk after Hope Not
* It is the largest world tour ever by a kpop girl group, reaching over 300,000 people worldwide.
