The First Japan Arena Tour is the first Japanese concert tour by South Korean girl group Girls' Generation to promote their 2011 self-titled album in Japanese.
It was announced on March 7, 2011 that Girls' Generation would embark on their first nationwide Japan tour on May 18, 2011 at Yoyogi National Stadium in Tokyo, with a total of seven stops in Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka and Fukuoka. The start of the tour was postponed to May 31, 2011 because of the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami. Due to overwhelming demand with up to 300,000 applicants applying for tickets, additional stops were added to the tour.
The tour covered Osaka, Saitama, Tokyo, Hiroshima, Nagoya, and Fukuoka with total of fourteen performances. The tour attracted more than 200,000 fans. It was also revealed that the estimated revenue collected from the tour could reach 20 billion Won.
Various Japanese media, including Mezamashi TV, covered the start of their concert with detailed reports.NHK's Music Japan presented a Girls' Generation special, detailing their meteoric rise in Korea and subsequent debut in Japan, with an interview session interspersed with footage from the Osaka stop of the First Japan Arena Tour. Girls' Generation First Japan Arena Tour in 3D was broadcast on Japan's SkyPerfectTv on 21 August.
