The wait is over: BTS are back, and their upcoming reunion tour will be their biggest outing yet. After completing their mandatory military service and spending four years away from the stage as a full group, the K-Pop superstars announced their 2026-2027 world tour spanning 79 shows across 34 regions. The ARMY Membership presale has wrapped up, and as expected, tickets flew off the virtual shelves in minutes.

BTS debuted in 2013 under Big Hit Music with seven members: RM, Jin, Suga, J‑Hope, Jimin, V, and Jung Kook. The group quickly rose to international prominence with a blend of hip‑hop, pop, R&B, EDM, deeply personal lyrics, and energetic choreography. BTS shattered global records with hits like Dynamite, Butter, and Boy With Luv, and became known for their positive messages around self‑love and mental health. Their devoted fan base, known as ARMY, has helped BTS become one of the highest‑earning and most-streamed artists worldwide.

A general sale for all regions will follow on 24 January. The news arrives a few weeks after the entertainment company BigHit Music revealed that BTS will make their return to music on 20 March after a nearly four-year hiatus resulting from the requirement that all seven members of BTS RM, Jin, Jimin, V, Suga, Jung Kook and j-hope complete South Korea's mandatory military service.

Spanning a total of 79 shows covering a 34 regions, BTS' world tour officially kicks off in early April with dates in their native South Korea and Tokyo. An initial leg of North American stadium shows follows in late April May, followed by more dates in South Korea, Europe, and the UK. A second run of US stadium shows is set for late summer.
