2026 is the year of BTS. The supergroup will mark their live return with an extensive tour launching in April 2026 and running through March 2027, with additional dates to be announced. The trek arrives in support of their upcoming musical return, scheduled to arrive on March 20 as part of their comeback following an extended hiatus.
The BTS world tour will kick off in Goyang, South Korea, on April 9. The band will spend multiple nights in each city on the trek, which includes stops in Tokyo, Mexico City, Las Vegas, Busan, London, Paris, Chicago, Toronto, East Rutherford, Buenos Aires, Sydney, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Manila, and more. Specific venues for each city have not been announced, though the routing suggests the band will be booking stadiums.
ARMY Membership holders will have access to tickets beginning Jan. 22 and 23 local time. A general sale will follow on Jan. 24 across all regions.
BTS has been in the studio working on new music since July, promising an album that will “reflect each member’s thoughts and ideas.” At the beginning of the year, RM shared, “We’ve waited more earnestly than anyone else,” with Jimin adding, “The year we’ve been waiting for has finally arrived. V teased, “In 2026, we’ll make even more good memories, so look forward to it!”
Fans have been anticipating the album and accompanying live show since last year. “We’re approaching the album with the same mindset we had when we first started,” BTS shared in July. “We’re also planning a world tour alongside the new album. We’ll be visiting fans all around the world, so we hope you’re as excited as we are.”
The members of BTS had a chance to sharpen their skills even during their time away from the group. Outside of completing their mandatory military service requirements, V, Suga, Jin, Jungkook, RM, Jimin, and J-Hope also pursued solo endeavors as musicians. Suga, Jin, and J-Hope also headlined respective solo tours. “I sought advice from him on the overall structure of the tour,” J-Hope told Rolling Stone last year about discussing solo touring with Suga. “As for the performances, we each bring a unique set of strengths to the stage, so I focused on shaping the production to reflect what I wanted to explore in various ways.” Now, they’re bringing their lessons back to the band.
