Boy band &TEAM will hold fan meetings in Korea and Japan in September to celebrate the band's first anniversary, its agency HYBE said Monday.

&TEAM (read and team) is HYBE's first Japanese boy band formed in September 2022.

The fan meetings, titled "&TEAM 1st Anniversary '縁 DAY,'" will be held at the Saitama Community Arena on Sept. 3, followed by a Korean performance at the Yes24 Hall in Gwangjin District, eastern Seoul on Sept. 9.

Members of the boy band's official fan club, LUNÉ, will be able to watch the fan meeting through Weverse's live stream at no extra cost, according to the agency.

Weverse is HYBE's fan community platform.

Tickets to the fan meeting will be first opened to the fan club members on Aug. 21, followed by a general ticket sale on Aug. 23.

"&TEAM's fan meeting will feature a variety of programs, designed to let LUNÉ have a time that they can never forget," HYBE said in a press release on Monday.

&TEAM was formed in September 2022, consisting of four members — K, Nicholas, EJ and Taki — that participated in Mnet and HYBE's audition program "I-LAND" (2020) and five members — Yuma, Jo, Fuma, Harua and Maki — from HYBE's in-house audition program "&Audition – The Howling" (2022).
