STAYC’s Sydney STAY CLOSER Show Blends Hits and Six Solo Cover Stages
STAYC’s October 18 performance at Sydney’s Enmore Theatre featured Bubble, Teddy Bear and an extended medley of crowd favorites, alongside one solo cover from each of the six members.
The STAY CLOSER tour arrived at Sydney’s Enmore Theatre on Sunday, October 18, 2026, with STAYC combining the recognizable songs that built their audience with a collection of individual cover stages. The show listing and set list published through Live Nation, supplemented by the concert entry on Setlist.fm, provide a detailed picture of a performance with several different musical phases.
From Bubble and Teddy Bear to a long hit medley
Early in the reported programme, Bubble and Teddy Bear appeared alongside 2 L0VE and I WANT IT. The concert later brought familiar tracks together in a medley including RUN2U, POPPY, Cheeky Icy Thang, GPT, BEBE, STEREOTYPE and ASAP. Fans could therefore hear several phases of the group’s catalogue in a compact sequence, rather than just a straightforward run of full-length singles.
The Sydney set list also places SO BAD, SLOW DOWN, WHERE YOU AT? and a Korean-language version of MWUAH in the latter portion of the show. Listed encore songs include I’LL BE THERE, Stay WITH me, SO WHAT and LOVE. Set-list entries do not independently verify every onstage exchange, and running orders can change at individual concerts.
One cover performance for each member
The most personal feature of the Sydney listing is its run of six individual covers. ISA performed West Coast Love by Emotional Oranges; SUMIN chose Carly Rae Jepsen’s I Really Like You; SEEUN took on Billie Eilish’s BIRDS OF A FEATHER; YOON performed Mangrove Tree by Younha; J covered Dua Lipa’s Levitating; and SIEUN sang toxic till the end by ROSÉ.
Those selections range across alternative R&B, mainstream pop and Korean singer-songwriter material. They put the members’ individual musical preferences in the foreground without changing the concert’s identity as a full-group STAYC show. A set list is useful evidence for the songs performed, but this article does not assign undocumented statements, reactions or backstage stories to any member.
A long night at Enmore Theatre
Setlist.fm reports an approximately 7:30 p.m. to 10:10 p.m. performance window, around two hours and forty minutes, and a 6:30 p.m. door time. These times are community-reported set-time data, rather than an official minute-by-minute statement from the artist. The combination of solo covers, a medley, full-group songs and an encore helps explain the reported length.
Sydney followed the tour’s other Australian stops, including Melbourne on October 16. The local set list should not be treated as proof that every city received exactly the same solo covers or sequencing. For SWITH, the clearest takeaway is the breadth of songs STAYC brought to Sydney and the chance for all six members to show a separate performance style.
