The 2025 MAMA Awards is bringing a powerful pack of performers, unveiling 17 groups that will all take the stage at Hong Kong’s new Kai Tak Stadium across two nights next month.

Centering on the concept of “heung,” which CJ ENM defines as “the distinctly Korean spirit of fun and excitement that has captivated global audiences,” the two-day award show’s first wave of performers brings globally recognized chart-toppers like Stray Kids, IVE and ENHYPEN alongside a crop of exciting rookie acts hitting the scene just this year including KickFlip, ALLDAY PROJECT, Hearts2Hearts and CORITS. Even the newly created ALPHA DRIVE ONE, who just formed at the end of September after weeks of competition on the boy-band survival show Boys Planet II, will perform at the 2025 MAMA ahead of the group’s highly anticipated 2026 debut.

As is the norm with K-pop, expect high-impact choreography, stadium-scale visuals, and musical moments designed to dazzle on television and across social media. First launched in 1999 as Korea’s first music video ceremony, the MAMA Awards now stand as one of the K-pop community’s biggest cultural conversation moments, blending an awards show with a music festival. As K-pop has expanded around the globe, so have the MAMAs, with ceremonies held across venues in Japan, Macao, Vietnam, Singapore, Hong Kong, and the United States.

The 2025 MAMA Awards will take place over two days in Hong Kong between November 28 and 29. Tickets for the 2025 MAMAs are available through multiple presales and general sales beginning October 17. Read on for the complete list of performers released so far, ticket information, and nominees.
