Earlier this year, another Music Bank was announced. After the incredible time we had at Music Bank Antwerp last year, we knew we had to join the ticketing battle again, book our flights, and prepare for a weekend filled with music, serotonin, and wholesome exchanges of freebies.
We went to Music Bank Lisbon 2025!
To say we were excited about the line-up would be an understatement. This edition brought IZNA, RIIZE, ZEROBASEONE, IVE, ATEEZ, and the legendary Taemin, hosted by the ever-charming Park Bo Gum. It promised a star-studded evening and countless memories.
This year, the organizer KOREAN POWER took charge and delivered a well-organized, seamless experience from start to finish.
Once seated, Park Bo Gum welcomed fans warmly, and the artists gave a quick taste of their hits in a joint introduction stage. The real fun began right after:
IZNA – Opening the Night
IZNA kicked off with their brand-new single “Mamma Mia”, giving us a sneak peek of their upcoming album. They also performed fan favorites like “SIGN” and “IZNA.” Their energy set the tone perfectly for the evening.
RIIZE – Acoustic Magic & High Energy
RIIZE followed with a stunning acoustic intro of “Get A Guitar” by Anton and Wonbin, showcasing their raw talent. The crowd went wild as they powered through “Boom Boom Bass,” “911,” and “Fly Up.”
We were then surprised with two special stages:
- ATEEZ’s Seonghwa, Yeosang, and San delivered a fiery cover of LISA’s “Money.”
- IZNA charmed us with TWICE’s “What Is Love?”
ZEROBASEONE – Tears & Surprises
ZB1 began with “ICONIK” before treating fans to “Lovesick Game,” “Crush,” and their beloved debut “In Bloom.”
A playful mission segment had the members spinning a wheel to perform surprise covers. Highlights included Habin’s heartfelt “Euphoria” (BTS Jungkook), Hao’s “Summer Was You” (H1KEY), and Taerae’s emotional snippet of EXO’s “Universe.” Many fans were in tears.
IVE – Queens of the Stage
IVE’s setlist was nothing short of iconic: “XOXO,” “After Like,” “Kitsch,” and “I AM.” Their fan interaction was unforgettable, they even called a lucky fan on stage and asked about her favorite song. Pure wholesomeness!
Special Stage Highlights
- RIIZE covered TVXQ’s “Hug,” filling the arena with nostalgia.
- Yujin (ZB1) stunned everyone by performing “MOVE” alongside Taemin. The duet’s fluid choreography was jaw-dropping and unforgettable.
ATEEZ – Energy Overload
ATEEZ brought the fire with “Hakuna Matata,” “Ice On My Teeth,” “In Your Fantasy,” and “GUERILLA.”
Their mission stage included Jongho’s soulful cover of Bruno Mars’ “Just the Way You Are” and adorable attempts at Portuguese phrases. Fans couldn’t get enough.
More surprises followed: ZB1 performed EXO’s “Love Shot,” and Park Bo Gum teamed up with IVE’s Yujin for a stunning “I’ll Never Love Again” from ‘A Star Is Born’.
Taemin – The Perfect Finale
The legend himself closed the night with jaw-dropping performances of “Guilty,” “Sexy in the Air,” “IDEA,” and “Advice.” His stage presence was electrifying and unforgettable.
Finally, all the artists came together for a heartfelt rendition of Coldplay’s “Viva La Vida.” Tears, smiles, and fan chants filled the arena as they said their goodbyes.
Final Thoughts
Music Bank Lisbon 2025 was an unforgettable night of music, surprises, and emotional moments. Every stage brought something unique, and the atmosphere was pure magic. We’ll cherish these memories until the next Music Bank!
