Pop Royalty\u00a0BTS\u00a0announce their long-awaited return to the global stage with their world tour spanning\u00a02026-2027. Set to be the biggest global K-pop tour of all time, and the largest of their career to date, the run will span\u00a034 regions and 79 shows, featuring first-ever performances in several cities and marking a historic new chapter for the group and their global fanbase,\u00a0ARMY.<\/p>\n

The highly anticipated 70+ date tour, promoted by Live Nation, kicks off Thursday, April 9, with BTS performing for three nights together in Goyang, South Korea before heading to Tokyo, Japan. From there, the tour moves to North America where the group will perform in major stadiums across the nation. BTS will bring their long-awaited world tour to Arlington, Texas, with two performances at AT&T Stadium on August 15 and August 16, 2026.<\/p>\n

This fall, BTS will then bring their tour to Latin America and Asia, with stops planned in Bogot\u00e1, S\u00e3o Paulo, Kaohsiung, Bangkok, Singapore, and more \u2014 including first-ever performances in Bogot\u00e1, Buenos Aires, and Kaohsiung. The group will then return to Australia early next year for a run of shows across Melbourne and Sydney. Venue details and ticket information for the Latin America, Asia, and Australia dates will be shared at a later date.<\/p>\n

Notably, the tour will feature a 360-degree, in-the-round stage design. The immersive setup places the audience at the center of the experience while allowing for increased capacity at every venue.<\/p>\n

These shows mark BTS\u2019 first headline performances as a group since their celebrated 2021\u20132022 \u2018PERMISSION TO DANCE ON STAGE\u2019\u00a0tour, which spanned 12 shows across Seoul, Las Vegas, and Los Angeles. As one of the first K-pop groups to achieve true global crossover success and shatter attendance and gross records worldwide, BTS continue to redefine what\u2019s possible for the genre with this massive stadium tour.<\/p>\n

The BTS World Tour also brings historic firsts across multiple markets. BTS will play Sun Bowl Stadium in El Paso, TX and Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, MA \u2014 marking the first and largest headline K-pop concerts ever held in both cities. The group will also become just the second musical act to perform at Stanford Stadium in Stanford, CA, following Coldplay\u2019s inaugural shows last year.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the tour marks BTS\u2019 first-ever performances in Madrid and Brussels, the first K-pop shows at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, TX and M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, and the group\u2019s debut at London\u2019s iconic Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, further cementing the tour as one of the most significant tours of 2026.\u00a0<\/p>\n
