BTS is finally coming back to rock the K-pop stage with “BTS 2026 World Tour.” The septet has announced their biggest tour yet. And the scale is truly shocking. With over 70 shows in one year, this isn’t just a comeback. It’s a global event! Find out more about the BTS 2026 World Tour, stops, venues, scale, and why it matters.
BTS 2026 World Tour: Dates, Cities, and Why This Tour Matters
The K-pop septet just dropped the news that will have ARMY planning travel budgets for months. BTS is hitting the road with 79 shows in 34 regions. Their journey will start in April 2026 and run through March 2027. Live Nation is calling it the biggest global K-pop tour of all time and the largest of BTS’s entire career.
Do you know what makes this moment even more precious and meaningful? These will be their first headlining performances together since 2021-2022. Members took time away for mandatory military service. Now they’re back. Together. All of them. On stadium stages around the world.
A Stage You’ve Never Seen Before
Live Nation didn’t just book some stadiums. They built a new way to experience BTS. The group will perform on a 360-degree, in-the-round stage for the first time in any K-pop stadium tour. The members will be surrounded by ARMY, placing them closer from every angle. It can also open up more seats in each venue, which matters when demand is high.
Making History in Cities They’ve Never Played
BTS doesn’t just perform in places that already expect them. They open doors. In El Paso, Texas, and Foxborough, Massachusetts, they’ll play the first and largest K-pop headline concerts ever held. Let that sink in. These cities have never seen K-pop at this scale. BTS changes that.
The group also becomes only the second musical act to ever perform at Stanford Stadium, joining Coldplay in that exclusive club. They’re debuting at London’s Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and bringing their first-ever shows to Madrid and Brussels.
Then there’s Latin America. BTS has never properly toured there before. They’re changing that too with stops in Bogotá, Buenos Aires, and Santiago. These are historic firsts. For the region. For the band. The economic impact alone will be huge. Industry estimates suggest the tour brings in around $1 billion in global revenue.
BTS 2026 World Tour Stops
The group’s 2026 world tour starts in Goyang, South Korea, on April 9, then goes straight to Tokyo. From there, North America opens up. Tampa, El Paso, Mexico City, Las Vegas, Stanford, and all the major U.S. cities come into play. Summer brings Europe: Madrid, Brussels, London, Munich, Paris, and more.
The group will be in Latin America during the fall, including Colombia, Peru, Chile, Argentina, and Brazil. Then comes the Asian swing: Taiwan, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia.
In early 2027, BTS heads to Australia in February. Then, they will go to Hong Kong and Manila, and return home to wrap up in March.
This isn’t a tour that hits one region and dips. It’s genuinely global. Check out the full list of BTS 2026 World tour below.
