BTS WORLD TOUR ARIRANG

Every date on this page is cross-referenced against btsworldtourofficial.com (the official tour site), Live Nation regional pages, Ticketmaster, and Wikipedia's 'Arirang World Tour' entry. We re-verify weekly. Always confirm with the official seller before booking travel, schedules can shift.

As of the last re-verification date on this page, there has been no official confirmation from FIFA, HYBE, or BIGHIT MUSIC of a BTS performance at the 2026 FIFA World Cup (June 11 – July 19, 2026, hosted across the United States, Canada, and Mexico). Anything circulating online is fan speculation until it appears on a primary source. For context, Jung Kook performed 'Dreamers' at the 2022 FIFA World Cup opening ceremony in Qatar.

Yes — four stops on the North American leg are 2026 FIFA World Cup venues: MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ (which hosts the World Cup final on July 19, 2026 — BTS opens the US summer leg there on August 1–2), Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, MA (August 5–6), AT&T Stadium in Arlington, TX (August 15–16), and SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, CA (September 1–2). Toronto and Mexico City are also World Cup host cities, though BTS plays different venues there (Rogers Centre and Estadio GNP Seguros). If you are traveling for the tournament, the tour reaches those same stadiums starting about two weeks after the final.

During the tournament window (June 11 – July 19, 2026) BTS plays Busan (June 12–13) and the Europe leg: Madrid (June 26–27), Brussels (July 1–2), London (July 6–7), Munich (July 11–12), and Paris (July 17–18). The tour returns to North America on August 1 in East Rutherford, 13 days after the World Cup final.

The tour opened on April 9, 2026 in Goyang, South Korea, and the current closing show is March 14, 2027 in Manila, Philippines. BIGHIT MUSIC has stated additional 2027 dates in Japan, the Middle East, and other regions are still to be announced.

82+ shows announced across 34+ cities in 23 countries, on a 360-degree in-the-round stadium stage. Each show includes two surprise-song slots. Per Live Nation (cited by Asian Entertainment & Culture), roughly 2.4 million tickets have sold across confirmed dates, with many cities sold out at presale.

Some Southeast Asia, Oceania, and 2027 dates are confirmed on the official tour site but the venue has not yet been published. We mark those entries 'Venue pending' instead of guessing. As soon as the official site updates, we update the entry and the 'Last checked' date.

Only buy from the official seller for your region: Weverse / Interpark for Korea, Live Nation or Ticketmaster for North America and most of Europe and Latin America, and the local promoter listed for Asia-Pacific. Never buy from DMs, social-media giveaways, or 'I have an extra seat' resales. See the scam-shield section near the top of this page.

BIGHIT MUSIC has confirmed live-viewing events for Goyang (Apr 11, 2026), Tokyo (Apr 18, 2026), and Busan (Jun 13, 2026). These play in theatres worldwide and may add cities. Check the official tour site for participating theatres in your region.
