Karasia are a series of concert tours by South Korean girl group Kara. The first concert tour titled Karasia began in Seoul, South Korea in February 2012,[1] and continued with 12 shows in Japan starting in Yokohama in April.[2] The tour was also planned to have dates in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Thailand, Singapore, Indonesia and others, but this never came to fruition.[3]

The 2012 tour concluded in Saitama on May 27, 2012, and attracted around 150,000 people in Japan. The last concert was broadcast live through streaming in 60 different theaters throughout Japan, and all the tickets to the theaters were sold out as well.[4] All solo songs that the girls performed in the Japanese tour was released on the album Kara Collection on September 5, 2012. On January 6, 2013, the group held a special concert at the Tokyo Dome in front of 45,000 people, making them the first female South Korean artist to hold a concert at the venue.[5]

A second tour, also titled Karasia, started in Japan on October 8, 2013. The tour attracted 120,000 people and was the last with members Nicole and Jiyoung prior to their departures from the group in January 2014. The group then embarked on their third Japanese tour on October 24, 2014, their first with new member Youngji. A fourth Karasia Japanese tour took place in September 2015 and was the group's final tour before their disbandment in January 2016. Kara's four concert tours in South Korea and Japan attracted a total of over 420,000 people.
