Following the successful BIGBANG Alive Galaxy Tour in Asia by its sibling group under YG Entertainment, 2NE1 descends upon the shores of Singapore with its New Evolution World Tour on 1 December 2012.

Consisting of members CL, Minzy, Dara & Bom, 2NE1 officially kickstarted their quest for world domination with their first single "Fire" with its music video having clocked over a million views within 24 hours of launch. Their first EP, 2NE1 spawned the number-one single "I Don't Care", which won them the "Song of the Year" award at the 2009 Mnet Asian Music Awards. Their follow-up singles, such as "Go Away", "Lonely" and "I Am The Best" were similarly successful, with "I Am the Best" winning 2NE1 their second "Song of the Year" award in 2011.

2NE1 officially debuted in Japan in September 2011 with a mini album titled NOLZA, which contained re-made versions of the Korean songs featured on the group's 2nd Mini Album. Since then, the group has released one studio album, Collection, and two physical singles in Japan.

2NE1 are set to debut in the United States in 2013, with work on the group's debut English studio album beginning in 2010 with producer will.i.am.

Combined with an elaborate and asthetically pleasing stage setup and participation of world famous choreographer Travis Payne – who previously worked with the late Michael Jackson, audience can expect to be wowed by nothing less than a full-throttle performance at the Singapore Indoor Stadium.
