The global K-pop phenomenon BTS has officially announced their long-awaited return to the stage, confirming a colossal world tour spanning 2026 and 2027. The BTS World Tour will feature over 70 concerts across Asia, North and South America, Australia, and Europe, marking their first headline tour since the 2021-22 'Permission to Dance on Stage' series.
The Grand Return After Military Service
This monumental tour announcement follows the group's recent completion of South Korea's mandatory military service, which caused a near-four-year hiatus. All seven members – RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jung Kook – have now fulfilled their duties. Rapper Suga was the last to be discharged in June 2025, having served as a social service agent. The tour news arrives just weeks after their label, BigHit Music, revealed BTS will make their official music comeback on 20 March 2026.
Tour Schedule and Key UK Date
The tour is set to kick off in Goyang, South Korea, in April 2026 and will run through to March 2027. The extensive itinerary includes multiple nights in major cities worldwide. For fans in the United Kingdom, the group will perform at London's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on 6 and 7 July 2026. This will be a landmark event for the British ARMY, offering a chance to see the iconic group live for the first time in years.
How to Secure BTS Tour Tickets
The ticket sale process will prioritise the band's dedicated fanbase. A presale for registered ARMY Membership holders on the Weverse platform will take place on 22 and 23 January 2026. The general sale for all regions will then commence on 24 January 2026. Prospective concert-goers are advised to ensure their Weverse membership is active and registered well in advance to access the coveted presale.
