Three nights, three cities and very little time between them: TEN is taking his solo U.S. showcase tour from Houston to Dallas and then Minneapolis this week. The singer and dancer performs at White Oak Music Hall on Wednesday, October 28, moves to The Studio at The Bomb Factory on Thursday and reaches Uptown Theater on Saturday, October 31.
For American fans who have followed his work with NCT and WayV, the run offers something different from a multi-member arena concert. This is TEN presenting his own music and stage identity, with the focus on what he can do across an entire solo set.
Houston, Dallas and Minneapolis: the confirmed schedule
| Date | City and venue | Local start |
|---|---|---|
| Wed, Oct 28 | Houston, Texas — White Oak Music Hall, Downstairs | 7:00 p.m. CDT |
| Thu, Oct 29 | Dallas, Texas — The Studio at The Bomb Factory | 8:00 p.m. CDT; doors at 7:00 |
| Sat, Oct 31 | Minneapolis, Minnesota — Uptown Theater | 7:00 p.m. CDT |
The Dallas venue name needs a small clarification: TEN is appearing at The Studio at The Bomb Factory, not the larger main Bomb Factory room. That distinction matters for visitors comparing venue maps, entry instructions and resale listings. The three performances are announced for local U.S. times, not Korean time.
A solo tour after a year of changes
TEN’s American shows began in Seattle on October 17, followed by dates on the West Coast before the itinerary turned toward Texas. The tour comes after a significant shift in his career. Earlier in 2026, TEN stepped away from his longtime solo management arrangement with SM Entertainment while saying he would continue activities as a member of NCT and WayV. His solo plans now have more room for his own projects and collaborators.
That context makes these smaller venue performances particularly interesting. TEN’s concerts have long relied on his ability to move between detailed choreography, fluid stage movement and expressive singing. Here, those skills have to carry a performance without the visual rhythm of group members alongside him. Rather than treating the showcase as a scaled-down arena show, fans can see it as a closer look at the performer himself.
His recent solo release, “OUTWEST,” reflects a different side of his music, blending hip-hop and electronic dance influences. Still, visitors should avoid assuming that every previously released track or a particular VIP interaction is guaranteed at these shows. The official ticket page and the event promoter remain the best sources for venue-specific arrangements.
Watch: a recent official tour recap
The following short-form video is TEN’s official U.S. tour recap shared during the October run. It is a YouTube Short, rather than an Instagram Reel, and shows earlier tour activity — not footage from Houston, Dallas or Minneapolis.

What’s next after Minneapolis?
Minneapolis is not the final stop. The tour continues to Chicago on November 1, then Atlanta, Baltimore, Boston and New York, where the U.S. itinerary is scheduled to conclude on November 10. For fans planning a last-minute visit, that broader route matters: there are several remaining cities, but the local venues and entry rules differ.
It is a busy stretch of shows for an artist marking a new phase of his solo career. In Houston, Dallas and Minneapolis, the central attraction is straightforward — TEN, his music and a room full of fans close enough to follow each movement.
