CARATs are finding fault with many things. For one thing, there are too few locations for the U.S. tour. The South is not included at all, just the West. Many feel Atlanta, GA, should have been included.

Many fans feel this hardly counts as a tour, with so few states included. Four out of fifty is less than 10%, as California is included twice out of the five locations.

While the U.S. is hardly covered, Canadian fans are also disappointed that there are no stops in or near Canada.

With such few stops, many CARATs will want to travel and visit locations they wouldn’t otherwise, making them more crowded. Considering this, choosing a predominantly arena tour probably wasn’t the best decision for a group as popular as SEVENTEEN.

Los Angeles, which concludes the tour, is the only stadium location. Yet, it’s also the only location with just one date, despite L.A. being one of the most popular stops.

Some fans were disappointed that most concert days are on weekdays. For CARATs who have to go to school or can’t take time off from work, this makes it hard to attend.

Lastly, tickets go on sale on August 15, with pre-sale on the 14, which gives little time to prepare. CARATs feel they were given very short notice.

CARATs agree that the tour seems rushed and not planned well.
