BTS is back together, having completed the military service of all seven members. Following their reunion in June, the group dedicated several months in Los Angeles to producing new music, collaborating with notable composers and producers. Their comeback album is expected to drop in the spring of 2026, setting the stage for a world tour.
The world tour in 2026 is scheduled to run from May to December, featuring approximately 65 performances. The tour is anticipated to draw in around 4 million fans, with each show projected to have over 60,000 attendees.
Before the tour kicks off, BTS will host a two-week global event from September 24 to October 5. This event will showcase four concert films in 2,500 theaters across 65 countries. In addition, pop-up stores will be available in numerous cities to commemorate the comeback.
