Nolza! was the first concert tour by South Korean girl group 2NE1. The tour supported their second extended play (EP), 2NE1 (2011), and its Japanese version, Nolza. Members of Big Bang, Taeyang and GD & TOP, joined the tour as guest performers. Spanning nine dates in South Korea and Japan, tickets for all shows were quickly sold out, with media outlets reporting over 300,000 people applying for tickets in Japan.
The Japanese leg of the tour attracted a total of 70,000 attendees, drawing the largest amount of spectators for a debut concert tour by a Korean artist in Japan at the time. A live album DVD from the concerts in South Korea was released by YG Entertainment in November 2011, which reached number four on the Gaon Album Chart and number one on the Taiwanese G-Music DVD chart. A live album of the concerts in Yokohama was released in February 2012.
Background
Two concerts were initially scheduled at the Olympic Hall in Seoul for August 27 and 28, 2011, with both shows being sold out instantly. A concert in Bangkok, Thailand, which was scheduled for October 29, was cancelled due to the effects of the 2011 Thailand floods.{{cite web |last1=Joo |first1=Kyung-don |date=30 October 2011 |title=2NE1 music video not mocking Fukushima disaster, producer says |url=https://koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/2011/10/30/etc/2NE1-music-video-not-mocking-Fukushima-disaster-producer-says/2943438.html |access-date=7 September 2012 |website=Korea JoongAng Daily |language=en}}
Commercial performance
In Seoul, 60,000 people were recorded queuing for only 8,000 available seats, therefore a third concert was added for August 26.{{Cite web |date=2011-07-20 |script-title=ko:2NE1, 첫 단독콘서트 폭발적인 인기에 1회 추가 |trans-title=2NE1, dates for 1st solo concert added due to explosive popularity |url=https://entertain.naver.com/read?oid=022&aid=0002288453 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210830014018/https://entertain.naver.com/read?oid=022&aid=0002288453 |archive-date=August 30, 2021 |access-date=2021-08-26 |website=Sports World |publisher=Naver |language=ko |via=}}{{cite web |date=11 August 2011 |script-title=ja:2NE1、日本デビュー盤『NOLZA』ジャケットではメンバーが“どんぐり眼”キャラに |url=https://www.barks.jp/news/?id=1000072368 |access-date=16 June 2022 |website=Barks |language=ja}} Interest was also huge for the Japanese leg of the tour, with 300,000 people queuing for concert tickets.
