Kanye West Ye Live concert in Jakarta

Overview

Rapper Kanye West, known as Ye, performed his ‘Ye Live’ concert at the Gelora Bung Karno (GBK) Main Stadium in Jakarta on Saturday, October 24, 2026. The event, promoted by Raw Vision Collective, featured a massive 360-degree ‘Giant World Globe’ dome stage flown in from abroad, accompanied by laser shows, fireworks, and planetary visuals.

The concert drew an estimated 50,000 to 70,000 attendees, including approximately 20,000 to 30,000 international fans. Notably, many fans traveled from Australia because the Australian government had revoked Ye’s visa following controversies surrounding his recent music releases. Jakarta served as the artist’s only scheduled performance in the Southeast Asia and Oceania regions as part of the ‘Ye Live Concert Tour 2026’.

During the performance, Ye played a setlist of approximately 30 to 32 songs, including ‘Power’, ‘Carnival’, ‘Runaway’, ‘KING’, and ‘Bound 2’. The show included a special guest appearance by André Troutman. Following the event, Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung reported that the concert generated an economic impact of approximately Rp450 billion, with ticket sales alone accounting for Rp328 billion.

On October 26, Governor Anung noted that the combined economic impact of the Ye concert and the Jakarta Running Festival (JRF) 2026 reached an estimated Rp625 billion. Additionally, Ye addressed social media rumors regarding his temperament during the show. Denying claims that he was angry with the audience, Ye stated on X that the atmosphere was ‘highly energetic’ and that his interactions, such as directing fans to restart choruses, were part of a ‘rock and roll’ stage performance.
