…and it sounds like K-Pop; then it probably is K-Pop. Time to get yourself glittery for K-Pop Live, which is coming to The Hub in Middlesbrough this January.

K-Pop grew even bigger in 2025 what with the likes of ‘KPop Demon Hunters’ dominating the film streaming charts. The film also had a killer soundtrack that produced massive worldwide hits such as ‘Golden’ and ‘Soda Pop’. And both of those tracks will most definitely get an airing at this exuberant show which will celebrate all things K and all things Pop. It’s presented by Live Republic and will feature mind-blowing live performances, choreography that will tip the scales at ‘Razor Sharp, and plenty of visuals. Other K-Pop classics are sure to be well and truly slayed including ‘Dynamite’, ‘APT.’ and ‘Best Day of Our Lives’ (and if ‘Gangnam Style’ doesn’t get an airing then I’ll drink my blue hair dye.) Also on hand will be professional hair & glitter stations (for your perfect idol transformation), bubbles, confetti and a Seoul-like atmosphere. There will be plenty of delicious street food to be had along with the likes of candyfloss, popcorn and slush (i.e. all the imporant food groups). There are two sessions throughout the day – each lasting three hours – so pick your time slot and get ready to party.

K-Pop Live, Saturday 17 January, The Hub, Middlesbrough, 10.30am-1.30pm and 2.30pm-5.30pm, from £18, skiddle.com
