Event news: G-Dragon tour comes to London and Birmingham

After the full group came to London in 2012, G-DRAGON returns on his own to play at the National Exhibition Centre and Wembley Arena. His agency, YG, comments “G-DRAGON has built quite a name for himself by participating in high profile fashion shows and events. However, now G-DRAGON’s fans in Europe will actually be able to see him perform.” With tickets starting at around £60 and heading towards £400 if you want all the extras, it’s something of a financial commitment.
