BTS is set to make a triumphant return to the stage with a highly anticipated world tour spanning 2026 and 2027, marking their first major global performances since 2022 and nearly four years after their hiatus due to mandatory military service in South Korea. This extensive tour will cover five continents and feature over 70 shows across Asia, North and South America, Europe, and Australia, kicking off in April 2026 in Goyang, South Korea, and concluding in March 2027.
Since their debut in 2013 with Big Hit Music, BTS has captivated audiences worldwide with their unique blend of hip-hop, pop, R&B, and EDM, along with deeply personal lyrics and dynamic choreography. Known for promoting messages of self-love and mental health, the group has enjoyed immense success, boasting hits like “Dynamite,” “Butter,” and “Boy With Luv.” Their dedicated fanbase, known as ARMY, has been instrumental in solidifying BTS as one of the highest-earning and most-streamed artists globally.
The 2026-2027 tour is particularly exciting as it coincides with the release of their new album, which is anticipated to drop in March 2026. As one of the most significant live music events of the decade, the tour promises to be a remarkable experience for fans.
Tickets for the tour will be released in phases, with exclusive presales for ARMY members starting in January 2026. Fans are encouraged to register on Weverse for early access to ticket sales. General sales will begin on January 24, 2026, with significant demand expected in key markets such as Los Angeles, Chicago, and Tokyo.
