The show, titled Stay Romantic, is scheduled for 9 May 2026 at Impact Arena Muang Thong Thani, with the announcement made via her studio on 31 March.
The reveal was accompanied by a striking promotional poster, presenting Zhao Lusi in a flowing gown set against a dramatic blaze backdrop.
The visual direction, both polished and theatrical, quickly gained traction online, with fans praising its confident tone and elevated styling.
The concept signals a shift towards a more defined musical identity, aligning with her recent releases.
Demand has been immediate.

The Bangkok concert arrives just days after the release of her latest single, Stop Pretending (别装了), which dropped on 27 March as part of her personal milestone marking her 10,000th day and 27th birthday.
The track continues her steady pivot into music, following earlier releases including the English-language Look Yourself and electronic-leaning Black Veil Bride and Don’t Wanna Know.
Together, they reflect a deliberate expansion in sound and artistic direction.
Many fans have welcomed the announcement as overdue recognition of her musical ambitions, with particular excitement around the possibility of a first live performance of Stop Pretending.
Others, however, question whether her transition into a dual-track career can sustain momentum, pointing to the challenges of balancing high-output drama projects with a consistent music identity.
Still, the scale of early ticket demand suggests that curiosity remains firmly in her favour.
On screen, Zhao Lusi continues to hold a strong position. Her recent drama Love's Ambition has maintained high visibility, while earlier hits such as The Romance of Tiger and Rose, Hidden Love, and Love Like the Galaxy have built a loyal international following, particularly in Thailand and across Southeast Asia.
Her cross-market recognition has made her one of the more bankable Chinese actresses in the region, especially among younger viewers.
For Zhao Lusi, the move appears calculated rather than experimental, supported by an existing fanbase that has already translated online engagement into measurable demand.
Setlist choices, live vocal delivery, and stage production will determine whether Stay Romantic becomes a one-off showcase or the foundation for a sustained touring presence.
Will this concert cement her standing as a credible music act, or remain an extension of her screen persona?
