According to the tour's creative director Amy Bowerman, the show was conceived as a celebration of Blackpink's dual identity, as well as the individuality of the members.{{Cite magazine|title=How the creative director of Blackpink's tour brought it to life|url=https://i-d.co/article/blackpink-creative-director/|magazine=i-D|language=en|last=Glasby|first=Taylor|date=November 11, 2022|access-date=November 11, 2022|archive-date=March 16, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230316222247/https://i-d.vice.com/en/article/4ax8yb/blackpink-creative-director|url-status=live}} Split into four acts, the first act takes place in an enchanted garden and showcases Blackpink's "pink" side. Bowerman described it as a "woodland, nymph-esque world where it's very flirty and feminine." However, certain scenes hint at the group's darker side, with grotesque floral imagery such as a lily leaking metallic liquid and higher-energy music. The second act leans more into the mature aspect of Blackpink, featuring a "heavy monochrome that's very harsh and powerful." The lead single of Born Pink, "Pink Venom", was intended to be the focal point of the show; at the end of the second act, it serves as the turning point at which the color pink first appears in the production and is used heavily thereafter. The third act highlights each member as an individual with solo performances and a "weird trippy mix" of colors. The fourth and final act celebrates Blackpink's concept of duality as a whole, with imagery of dichotomies such as water and earth or fire and ice featured prominently.{{Cite web|title=Going behind the 'Born Pink' tour with its creative director: "We could do a six-hour BLACKPINK rock opera"|url=https://www.nme.com/features/music-interviews/blackpink-born-pink-tour-creative-director-interview-amy-bowerman-3357356|website=NME|language=en-GB|last=Yeo|first=Gladys|date=November 29, 2022|access-date=April 20, 2023|archive-date=January 31, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230131091907/https://www.nme.com/features/music-interviews/blackpink-born-pink-tour-creative-director-interview-amy-bowerman-3357356|url-status=live}}{{Cite web|title=Inside the vibrant world of Blackpink's Born Pink tour|url=https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/culture/article/blackpink-born-pink-tour-amy-bowerman|website=British GQ|language=en-GB|date=December 1, 2022|access-date=April 20, 2023|archive-date=December 2, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221202053137/https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/culture/article/blackpink-born-pink-tour-amy-bowerman|url-status=live}}{{Cite magazine|title=Girl Power Is Alive and Well at Blackpink's 'Born Pink' World Tour|url=https://www.harpersbazaar.com/culture/art-books-music/a42030141/blackpink-creative-director-born-pink-tour-interview/|magazine=Harper's Bazaar|language=en-US|last=Bianca|first=Betancourt|date=November 22, 2022|access-date=April 20, 2023|archive-date=November 22, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221122224231/https://www.harpersbazaar.com/culture/art-books-music/a42030141/blackpink-creative-director-born-pink-tour-interview/|url-status=live}}

To produce the Born Pink World Tour, YG Entertainment approached Ceremony London—a visual production company that previously worked with artists such as Post Malone, Rina Sawayama, Holly Humberstone and Dua Lipa—providing the music and choreography of Born Pink in order to do so.{{Cite web|script-title=ko:'체조경기장 재입성' 블랙핑크, 2만 관객 앞 '장족의 발전' 증명[종합]|trans-title='Re-entering the gymnastics arena' BLACKPINK proves 'great development' in front of 20,000 spectators [Comprehensive]|url=https://n.news.naver.com/entertain/article/018/0005342641|via=Naver|website=E-Daily Star|language=ko|last=Kim|first=Hyun-sik|date=October 16, 2022|access-date=April 20, 2023|archive-date=April 20, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230420025004/https://n.news.naver.com/entertain/article/018/0005342641|url-status=live}} The production was ultimately a multilateral, collaborative effort between YG Entertainment's fully-female production team, the group's American band and music director, and Ceremony London. Bowerman described the evolution of the show's concept as an "organic" process. Blackpink themselves were heavily involved in the show's planning and provided their input, especially regarding the set list. As they rehearsed for the tour, they determined which songs fit together and when, resulting in changes to the visuals, movements, and stage; however, "Pink Venom" remained the show's focal point. Fan interactions were also considered during the development of the show, with time allotted for Blackpink to spend engaging with their fans, called "Blinks".

The show begins with a video interlude depicting Blackpink in an enchanted garden, after which the group rises from above the stage. Blackpink performs their harder-hitting songs "How You Like That", "Pretty Savage", and "Whistle", after which they introduce themselves and interact with the audience. The next portion of the setlist showcases the group's softer side with the songs "Don't Know What to Do" and "Lovesick Girls". The members then depart the stage for a costume change.

The second act of the concert begins with a black-and-white video interlude of Blackpink in a dystopian setting. They return to the stage with "Kill This Love", followed by "Crazy Over You", "Playing with Fire", "Tally", and "Pink Venom". Afterward, the members depart for a costume change, while the dancers participate in a dance circle onstage and the touring band plays guitar, bass, drum, and keyboard solos. The third act of the concert features solo performances by the members, each preceded by backdrops with their names on the main stage screen. Jisoo commences with a cover of Camila Cabello's "Liar", which is replaced by her song "Flower" from the Tokyo shows onwards. Jennie is next, performing her song "You & Me" as a partnered dance with dimmed lighting and a backdrop of their projected silhouettes. The third solo performance is by Rosé, who sings her songs "Hard to Love" and "On the Ground". Finally, Lisa performs a shortened version of her song "Lalisa" followed by her song "Money", which includes a pole dance routine and an extended dance break.

After another video interlude, Blackpink returns as a group for the fourth act of the concert and performs "Shut Down" and "Typa Girl". The members then pause to interact with the audience and teach the key choreography for the next song, "Ddu-Du Ddu-Du", whose performance features an extended dance break. The last song of the act is "Forever Young", after which Blackpink bids their goodbyes and departs the stage. However, Blackpink returns for an encore in casual shirts and sweatshirts from their tour's merchandise line. They perform "Yeah Yeah Yeah" and "Stay", taking different sides of the stage to dance with the audience and play with the cameras. Blackpink ends with "As If It's Your Last" and says a final goodbye before exiting the stage.{{cite magazine|title=BLACKPINK Born Pink Tour Review: Put Your Phone Down and Dance Instead|url=https://www.teenvogue.com/story/blackpink-born-pink-prudential-show-review-2022|magazine=Teen Vogue|last=Momenian|first=Donya|date=November 17, 2022|access-date=November 17, 2022|archive-date=September 23, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230923152646/https://www.teenvogue.com/story/blackpink-born-pink-prudential-show-review-2022|url-status=live}}

The encore stadium shows in France and the United States feature a completely revamped setlist and stage design which was first performed on the group's headlining appearances at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival and British Summer Time Hyde Park. The majority of the video interludes are absent from the show. "Pink Venom" starts off the new setlist with an explosive extended intro involving the backup dancers. "Pretty Savage" features a new chair dance break, after which Blackpink performs "Kick It" while sitting. For her solo stage, Jennie performs a remixed version of "You & Me" followed by her song "Solo". Jisoo performs her song "All Eyes on Me" followed by a shortened version of "Flower". Rosé performs a shortened version of her song "Gone" followed by "On the Ground". Lisa performs an explicit version of "Money" with an extended dance break. The performance of "Typa Girl" includes new choreography involving giant feathers and a new extended intro. The show ends with a series of fireworks as the members thank the audience and depart.{{cite magazine|title=8 Best Moments From BLACKPINK's Celebratory 'Encore' Stadium Tour Kickoff in New Jersey|url=https://www.billboard.com/lists/blackpink-born-pink-encore-stadium-tour-new-jersey-best-moments/|magazine=Billboard|last1=Benjamin|first1=Jeff|date=August 13, 2023|access-date=August 13, 2023|archive-date=September 23, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230923153146/https://www.billboard.com/lists/blackpink-born-pink-encore-stadium-tour-new-jersey-best-moments/|url-status=live}}
