DIR EN GREY is expanding their overseas tour, TOUR25 WHO IS THIS HELL FOR?, with an additional show in Anaheim, California. The band has also announced their first performances in Taiwan and Hong Kong in nearly nine years.

Additional California show

Following their October announcement of a US comeback with two sold-out concerts in Los Angeles, fans now have another chance to catch DIR EN GREY live. The newly added show takes place on April 11, 2025, at the House of Blues in Anaheim, California.

The Anaheim concert will feature the “mode of VULGAR” theme, a setlist spotlighting tracks from their 2003 album VULGAR—known for its aggressive sound and boundary-pushing style—along with recent releases that complement the album. Like the Los Angeles dates, tickets will be available in general admission, priority entry, and VIP tiers.

Tickets go on artist presale from December 18 at 10:00 PST until December 19 at 22:00 PST using code DIR25US. General sales begin December 20 at 10:00 PST—act fast, as tickets are expected to sell quickly!

While fans were disappointed by the cancellation of the “SICK NEW WORLD” 2025 festival, DIR EN GREY’s newly added Anaheim concert ensures US fans won’t miss the chance to see them live.

Rare Hong Kong and Taiwan shows

Following their US performances, DIR EN GREY will take their energy to Asia for their first shows in Taiwan and Hong Kong in nearly a decade.

On May 10, they kick things off at Zepp New Taipei in Taipei, Taiwan, delivering a powerful “mode of VULGAR” performance. The energy continues as the band heads to Hong Kong for two unforgettable nights: “mode of VULGAR” takes center stage on May 17, followed by “mode of Withering to death.” on May 18 at MacPherson Stadium.

Tickets for the Taiwan show go on sale December 21 at 11:00 CST. The Hong Kong shows go on sale December 26 at 10:00 HKT.
