Global K-pop sensation BTS will be heading to Arlington later this year as part of their upcoming 2026-2027 world tour.
The seven-member boyband will kick off their 79-show tour April 9 in South Korea, before eventually stopping in Arlington Aug. 15 and 16 for two shows at AT&T Stadium.
Tickets will be available Jan. 22 through the ARMY membership presale, with select dates on presale Jan. 23. The general onsale begins Jan. 24 at LiveNation.com. Presale and onsale times vary.
Army membership holders must register for the presale on Weverse by Jan. 18 for their membership to be verified. Only those who register in advance will be eligible to join the queue and access the presale tickets.
The tour is set to be one of the biggest K-pop events — spanning 34 regions — and will take BTS to cities and countries they’ve never performed in before, like Bogotá, Buenos Aires, and Kaohsiung.
Performances during the tour will feature a 360-degree, in-the-round stage, allowing the audience to have a more immersive experience and venues to increase capacity.
BTS went on a hiatus in 2022, giving members a chance to take a break and explore other avenues. The hiatus was followed by the members’ mandatory enlistment in the military, with the oldest member, Jin, enlisting in December 2022 and the rest following suit.
During this time, the group members pursued solo careers in music with songs like Jungkook’s “Seven” and Jimin’s “Like Crazy” debuting at No. 1 on the 2023 Billboard charts. They also embarked on individual world tours.
The group is set to release their fifth album, featuring 14 tracks, on March 20, with pre-orders opening January 16.
