Jack White brings his solo project to Seoul this August for a single evening of blues-rock at YES24 Live Hall. Best known as the driving force behind The White Stripes and for a solo catalog that spans garage rock, Delta blues, and experimental composition, White occupies a singular space in contemporary rock—equally comfortable with vintage analog equipment and boundary-pushing sonic textures. The Seoul date arrives as part of his 2026 touring cycle, offering fans in Korea direct access to material from across his four solo studio albums alongside selections from The White Stripes canon and his various side projects.
🗓️ Date: August 17, 2026
📍 Venue: YES24 Live Hall
Address: Gwangjin-gu Performance Hall, 20 Gucheonmyeon-ro, Gwangjin-gu, Seoul
The Monday evening performance begins at 6:00 PM, an earlier start than typical arena concerts that accommodates the venue’s location in eastern Seoul and weekday transit schedules. YES24 Live Hall, situated in the Gwangjin district near Konkuk University and the Han River, offers a capacity of approximately 2,000 to 3,000 with both general admission floor and reserved seating tiers—providing closer sightlines and more immediate sound than stadium shows allow.

- Reserved Seat (General): 132,000 KRW
Both ticket categories are priced identically at 132,000 KRW. The standing option places attendees on the general admission floor, suitable for those who prioritize proximity to the stage, while reserved seating offers assigned chairs with fixed sightlines toward the center of the action. Admission is restricted to attendees aged 12 and older.
Practical Information
🛏️ Accommodations near the concert
Hotels and guesthouses within Gwangjin-gu or the nearby Konkuk University and Jamsil areas provide the shortest transit times to the venue, typically less than twenty minutes by bus or subway.
For those traveling from outside Seoul, the venue sits within walking distance of Guui Station on Line 2 and is accessible via bus routes connecting to Gangbyeon Station. Given the YES24 Live Hall’s compact architecture—originally designed as a dedicated concert space rather than a converted sports arena—acoustics remain detailed and balanced throughout both the standing and reserved sections, regardless of position.
A bit about Jack White,
Jack White is the preeminent rock and roll archivist of the 21st century, a paradox wrapped in a mystery and sealed with a distinctive color palette of red, white, and black. Bursting onto the scene as the guitar-playing, vocal-singing half of The White Stripes, he revitalized blues-rock minimalism with a raw, primal energy that made a two-piece band sound like an apocalypse. From the iconic, earth-shaking riff of “Seven Nation Army” to the frenetic garage-punk deconstruction of “Fell in Love with a Girl,” his work with drummer Meg White proved that limitation is the ultimate catalyst for creativity. Beyond The White Stripes, he expanded his sonic universe as the frontman of The Raconteurs, the drummer and vocalist for The Dead Weather, and through a voraciously inventive solo career that veers from furious rockabilly to strange, electronic-tinged experiments. A Third Man Records founder and obsessive upholsterer of analog sound in a digital world, Jack White isn’t just a musician; he’s a self-mythologizing guardian of raw expression, treating the entire history of music as a playground to be both preserved and blown apart.
