Seven years after their debut, K-pop group Seventeen will be heading to Las Vegas for the first time for an event-filled weekend with their fans, known as Carats. “CLARITY” is a three-day event, hosted by Pollen, that will feature special events curated by Seventeen themselves, with guest appearances by the members.
The event will take place from September 9-12, 2022 at Resorts World Las Vegas, and is for Carats who are 18 and older, with certain events for those over 21. The event advertises a headline performance by Seventeen, an official hip hop unit welcome party, a “Rock With You” choreography lesson with Seventeen, a film screening and Q&A session with Seventeen, an art exhibition with Seventeen, a Carat after party, and pool parties and luxe Las Vegas accommodations.
Seventeen first came into the limelight with their pre-debut show, Seventeen TV, showcasing their trainee days, and their debut project show, Seventeen Project: Debut Big Plan. Making waves with those two programs, the group became known for being completely self-produced, with vocal team leader Woozi producing, composing, and writing all of their songs, and performance team leader Hoshi choreographing their dances alongside his fellow performance team members. The group eventually debuted in 2015 with “Adore U” and steadily climbed up the charts to gain their first win a year later with their song, “Pretty U.” Since then, the thirteen-member boy group has released hit after hit, topping Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart with their latest release, “Face the Sun,” and winning countless awards from various award shows, including “Artist of the Year” at last year’s Asia Artist Awards. The group’s latest album features the title song, “Hot,” as well as the group’s first ever English release, “Darl+ing.” Seventeen recently kicked off their third world tour, Be The Sun, at the end of June, and will be returning to the U.S. in August for the North American leg of the tour.
