The Arirang World Tour (stylized in all caps) is the ongoing fourth concert tour by the South Korean boy band BTS, in support of their 2026 studio album, Arirang. The tour began on April 9, 2026, in Goyang and continue through 2027. Marking BTS's return to live performances after completing their mandatory military service, it spans more than 85 dates in 34 cities across 23 countries.

Background

In October 2025, Bloomberg News reported that BTS would hold "their largest world tour to date" the following year.[1] The first batch of dates was announced on January 13, 2026, under the name BTS World Tour,[2] with additional shows to be added in Japan, the Middle East, and more countries in 2027.[3] Two days later, it was revealed that group would call their forthcoming album Arirang.[4] The performances will feature a 360-degree stage setup.[5]

Tickets to their concerts in South Korea, North America, and Europe were sold out within a few hours of the pre-sale and general sale.[6] Mexico's president Claudia Sheinbaum appealed to South Korea's president Lee Jae Myung to add more shows in her country, after local concert promoter Ocesa told her that the band's packed itinerary made adding shows unfeasible.[7]

On April 8, 2026, BTS added three concerts to the Latin American leg of the tour, scheduling one additional show each in Lima, Santiago, and Buenos Aires.[8]
