Global K-pop phenomenon BTS has sent shockwaves through the music world with the announcement of a colossal world tour spanning 2026 and 2027. This marks the group's first headline concert series since their 'Permission to Dance on Stage' tour concluded in 2022, following a near-four-year hiatus.
The Long-Awaited Return to the Stage
The tour announcement comes just weeks after BigHit Music confirmed BTS would make their official musical comeback on 20 March 2026. The extended break was necessitated by South Korea's mandatory military service, which all seven members have now completed. Rapper Suga was the final member to be discharged in June 2025, having served as a social service agent. The other six – RM, Jin, Jimin, V, Jung Kook, and j-hope – all fulfilled their duties in the army.
Tour Schedule and How to Secure Tickets
The 'BTS World Tour 2026-2027' is a sprawling undertaking, featuring over 70 dates across Asia, North and South America, Australia, and Europe. The journey begins in Goyang, South Korea, on 9 April 2026, and will run through to March 2027.
Key UK and European dates for fans include performances in London on 6-7 July 2026, alongside stops in Madrid, Brussels, Munich, and Paris.
The ticket sale process will prioritise the band's dedicated fanbase, ARMY. Presale access for ARMY Membership holders will occur on 22 and 23 January 2026. To qualify, fans must register on HYBE's official Weverse platform. The general sale for all regions follows on 24 January 2026.
