aespa Synk : Parallel Line in Amsterdam (6 March 2025)
Fans are excitedly waiting in the warm spring sun in front of the AFAS Live venue in Amsterdam. The atmosphere is light and happy, the plaza in front of the venue seems to be buzzing with MY’s.

The lights dim and the bass booms through the venue little after 8pm and cheers erupt from the crowd. Aespa enters the stage and starts the setlist strong with their hit songs Drama and Black Mamba. They seem to glow and light up the stage in their white outfits. Next they perform Salty and Sweet before the lights dim back down and the first VCR starts playing.
A small stair prop appears on stage for the next set of songs: Supernova, Mine and Die Trying. After catching their breaths for a second the girls introduce themselves and talk about their experience in Amsterdam so far. Giselle mentions that she found some cookies that she loves and that it’s not her first time in Amsterdam. After the brief break they continue with the songs Flights, Not Feelings and Better Things.
The next VCR introduces the first member for her solo stage: Giselle who is performing Dopamine with impressive choreo. The next video introduces Karina and her song UP, after Karina Ningning takes the stage for her solo performance of Bored! and last but not least Winter shows off her solo song Spark.
After another VCR the girls come out in matching pink hoodies and happily perform the songs Spicy and Pink Hoodie. Needing a little breather for the next songs the girls talk about the collaborations with two games, Tetris and Pokemon, and ask the crowd to sing along before performing Hold on Tight, Live My Life and We Go.

The next stage is a special one as Nævis makes an appearance with their song Done. The girls re-enter the stage and the first few notes of the next song makes the crowd go wild: Whiplash, followed by Set the Tone and the rock versions of Next Level and Armageddon. But the surprises aren’t over yet: Aespa tells us there is a comeback on the horizon and it has something to do with Amsterdam! The crowd is cheering their lungs out after the announcement. And with that said, it’s already time for goodbyes; every member gives her thanks and ending mends.

But it’s not the end of the show yet: the crowd lights come on and it’s time for Aespa Dance Time! Multiple members of the crowd get their moment in the spotlight performing Aespa’s iconic dance moves.
The encore consists of ænergy, Just Another Girl and the English version of Life’s Too Short. While the girls sing they move around the stage waving goodbye, posing for pictures and with that, the amazing show really has come to an end.
