A December night under Broadway
ONEUS play New York on December 16, 2026. The “FULL MOON” tour stop is at Palladium Times Square, a concert hall set into the base of the office tower at 1515 Broadway, on the corner of West 44th Street.
The room sits below street level. You leave the Times Square billboards and crowds behind, head down from the sidewalk, and come out in a long hall with the stage at the far end. Most of the audience stands on the floor facing it, which puts you close to the group in a way an arena never does.
The group behind the light sticks
ONEUS debuted in January 2019 under the Seoul label RBW with “Valkyrie.” They built a following on sharp, theatrical choreography. Their run on the competition show Road to Kingdom in 2020 made the point well.
That same year they released “LIT,” a track that mixes traditional Korean instruments with electronic production. It became the song people still name when they explain the group to friends. Fans call themselves To Moon, so a tour named “FULL MOON” is a nod to the fandom as much as a title.
This guide does not name a setlist or who performs on the night. Neither is part of the announced facts, and K-pop rosters change.
Reaching Palladium Times Square
You will not need a car. Midtown parking is scarce and expensive, and the subway runs right up to the venue.
- Times Sq–42 St: 1, 2, 3, 7, N, Q, R, W and the S shuttle. Exits toward Broadway and 44th put you about two blocks south of the door.
- 49 St: N, R, W. A walk of about five blocks south down Seventh Avenue.
- 42 St–Port Authority Bus Terminal: A, C, E. Walk east along 42nd or 44th Street.
- Out-of-town fans: buses from New Jersey and upstate arrive at Port Authority, a few minutes’ walk west.
Mid-December in New York is cold, often near freezing after dark. Fans in the line outside usually dress for an hour or more on the pavement, then carry their layers once inside.
Concert-night etiquette for To Moon
K-pop shows in New York follow habits that will be familiar from Seoul, with a few local touches.
- Light sticks: the official ONEUS light stick is the standard accessory. Fans hold it up during ballads rather than waving it across the view of people behind.
- Fan chants: To Moon chant members’ names at set points in songs. Fans who want to join usually learn the official chant guides beforehand, and the floor gets loud.
- Freebies: fans often hand out small free gifts on the sidewalk, such as photocards, stickers or keychains, and trade them in the queue. Accepting one with thanks is normal. Bringing a few to give back is common.
- Merch: the merchandise line forms separately from the entry line. Many attendees join it first, because popular items can run out.
- Bag rules: the venue sets its own bag and camera policy, and fans who travel light get through security fastest.
- Phones: filming is common. Holding a phone up for a whole song blocks the person behind you, so most people film in short bursts.
Before and after: the blocks around 44th and Broadway
The venue sits in the middle of the Theater District. Pre-show food options fill every direction.
- Ninth Avenue in Hell’s Kitchen, three blocks west, has rows of Thai, Mexican, ramen and diner spots, and it is calmer than Times Square itself.
- Koreatown on West 32nd Street, a short subway ride or a 20-minute walk south, is where many fans go for late Korean barbecue and fried chicken after the show.
- Bryant Park, two blocks southeast, usually hosts a winter village with an ice rink and holiday market stalls in December.
- Rockefeller Center, about a 10-minute walk northeast, has its Christmas tree up through the holiday season.
Times Square in mid-December is among the most crowded places in the city. Sidewalks around 42nd to 47th Streets move slowly in the evening, so give the last stretch to the door extra time.
Tickets and the tour schedule
Prices, seat or floor sections and door times belong to the tour’s ticket seller. They do not appear here, because any figure would be a guess.
What is fixed is simple. The New York date is December 16, 2026, at Palladium Times Square, as one stop on the wider “FULL MOON” tour. Fans travelling in usually stay in Midtown or near Port Authority, so the walk back after the encore is short.
