ATEEZ took the stage at Rock in Roma on July 8, performing a 50-minute set at the annual music festival in Rome, Italy.

The group opened with "Guerrilla" before continuing with songs including "Say My Name," "BAD," "Crazy Form," "The Real," before closing with "Adrenaline" and "BOUNCY (K-HOT CHILLI PEPPERS)."

Addressing the audience during the performance, the members said, "Thank you for such a warm welcome. We've prepared our best performance, so we hope you'll enjoy it until the very end. We hope tonight becomes a night you'll remember for a long time."

While the group's performance was met with an enthusiastic response, some attendees expressed disappointment with the event's organization. On social media, several fans described it as "the most abrupt ending for the shortest setlist ever," while others questioned paying "300 euros for less than 60 minutes." Some also noted that "the boys (ATEEZ) didn't even have the time to speak properly during their ments," expressing frustration that the performance appeared to end sooner than expected.

Following the concert, ATEEZ thanked fans once again, saying, "Thanks to all of you, this will be a performance we'll remember. Being together made this moment even more special. Seeing everyone enjoying the show made us happy. Your cheers gave us so much strength. Thank you, and we'll see you again."

After the show, many fans stressed that their criticism was directed toward the festival's scheduling rather than towards ATEEZ themselves. Others shared messages celebrating how far the group has come, saying they were proud to see ATEEZ performing at major European festivals and praising the members for making the most of the time they were given especially with such a wide setlist. Many also described the performance itself as one of the highlights of the festival despite the time constraint the festival seemed to have placed on the group.

The Rome appearance follows ATEEZ's headline performance at British Summer Time Hyde Park in London last month, marking another major European festival appearance as the group continues promoting its latest mini album, "GOLDEN HOUR : Part.5."
