SYDNEY, Oct. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- TMGM has been named the Official Financial Online Trading Sponsor of BIGBANG 2026–2027 WORLD TOUR in Sydney, bringing together the Sydney-founded global broker and one of Asia's most recognised music acts as BIGBANG celebrates its 20th anniversary.
Taking place at Accor Stadium on 31 October 2026, the Sydney concert forms part of BIGBANG's first world tour since 2017. The tour marks two decades since the group's debut and its return to major international stages across Asia, North America, Europe and Oceania.
The partnership marks an expansion of TMGM's international sponsorship strategy into live entertainment. Since its founding in Sydney in 2013, TMGM has used international partnerships to build brand recognition beyond financial markets, with sport forming a significant part of its sponsorship portfolio.
Working with BIGBANG brings a new cultural dimension to that strategy. Over two decades, the South Korean group has built an international following extending across music, fashion and popular culture, creating an opportunity for TMGM to connect with audiences through one of the most established names in K-pop.
"BIGBANG has built a remarkable legacy over the past 20 years, with an influence that reaches well beyond music," said TMGM. "There is also something particularly meaningful about bringing this partnership to Sydney, where TMGM began. As we continue to grow internationally, we want our partnerships to reflect the audiences and markets we engage with around the world."

News Summary
- LG Electronics begins the global rollout of the new 25-inch LG WashTower™, which joins the 24- and 27-inch models to form a complete lineup of premium laundry solutions, giving customers greater choice.
- The new WashTower combines a compact 25-inch form factor with the ability to simultaneously wash and dry separate loads of up to 20 kilograms each.
- Equipped with LG's core laundry technologies and AI-powered features, including AI Wash™ 2.0, AI Dry™ and AI Time Sensing, the new WashTower offers fast washing and drying, intuitive control and a refined flat design.
SEOUL, South Korea, Oct. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- LG Electronics (LG) is commencing the global rollout of the 25-inch LG WashTower™, a unified vertical laundry solution designed to balance large-capacity performance with space efficiency. Featuring an independently operated dual-drum design, the WashTower allows users to wash and dry separate loads simultaneously. The new appliance joins the existing 24- and 27-inch WashTowers to form a complete lineup, enabling customers to select the model best suited to their living space, laundry needs and lifestyle.
Balancing Capacity and Space Efficiency
LG WashTower integrates a separate washer and dryer that can operate simultaneously into a unified form factor, allowing users to manage more loads in less time. With LG's optimized drum structure and a compact footprint, the new 25-inch model combines installation flexibility with ample laundry capacity.
A Refined, Integrated Design for Modern Living Spaces
The new WashTower adopts LG's Flat design to deliver a refined, built-in-inspired aesthetic that complements a range of interiors. The integration of the Hidden Hinge Door and Push Detergent Box results in a sleek exterior that allows the appliance to blend in seamlessly with most modern living spaces. Equipped with a wide 6.8-inch touch LCD display, the WashTower's signature Center Control™ panel lets users adjust settings and check washing and drying status from a single, centrally positioned interface.
Advanced Core Technologies and AI Capabilities
Employing LG's advanced core technologies, the 25-inch WashTower delivers a fast and convenient wash-to-dry experience. TurboWash™ uses powerful water jets and rapid drum movements to help reduce washing time,1 DUAL Inverter HeatPump™ technology helps deliver drying performance while improving energy efficiency, and Turbo Dry helps shorten drying time.
For additional convenience, the WashTower's Prepare to Dry feature makes it possible to wash and dry a three-kilogram load of laundry within 120 minutes.2 Meanwhile, AI Wash™ 2.0, which is powered by LG's Artificial Intelligence Direct Drive™ (AI DD™), analyzes load weight, fabric characteristics and soil level to tailor the washing and rinsing process for enhanced cleaning and gentle fabric care.
The new WashTower further streamlines the task of laundry with its advanced smart features. AI Dry assesses fabric type, load size and humidity changes to help determine the appropriate drying time. For loads under five kilograms consisting of similar fabric types, it can also help deliver more even drying.3 By continuously updating usage data over time, AI Time Sensing can detect load characteristics to supply a more precise cycle-length estimate.4 After each cycle, the AI Laundry Report provides a summary of key information – including estimated load size, detergent usage and energy consumption – on the Center Control display. By connecting the appliance to the LG ThinQ™ app for compatible mobile devices, users can check related notifications and laundry status from almost anywhere.5
LG will commence the rollout of its new WashTower in Asia, the Middle East and Latin America later this year, with availability to follow in additional markets starting from 2027.
"With the addition of the 25-inch model, our complete WashTower lineup gives customers greater flexibility – allowing them to choose the premium laundry solution that best suits their space, needs and lifestyle," said Baek Seung-tae, president of the LG Home Appliance Solution Company. "The new WashTower shows that customers can enjoy both capacity and space efficiency. Our premium laundry solution delivers performance and convenience in a size designed to fit more homes."
