BTS is set to make a highly anticipated comeback with an extensive world tour in support of their upcoming album, which is scheduled to drop on March 20. The K-pop supergroup will kick off the "BTS World Tour" on April 9, 2026, at Goyang Stadium in South Korea and will spend multiple nights in each city before heading out to other locations around the world.
The tour will make stops in over a dozen countries, including Japan, Mexico, the United States, Europe, Asia, and Latin America. The band's fans, known as ARMY, will get priority access to tickets on January 22-23 local time, followed by a general sale on January 24 for all regions.
According to the group, they've been working tirelessly in the studio since July, pouring their thoughts and ideas into new music that promises to be an album unlike any other. The band members have been busy sharpening their skills during their extended hiatus, with each member pursuing solo endeavors as musicians.
"We're approaching the album with the same mindset we had when we first started," the group shared in a statement last year. "We're also planning a world tour alongside the new album. We'll be visiting fans all around the world, so we hope you're as excited as we are."
The band's highly anticipated return is expected to generate significant buzz among their loyal fanbase and music enthusiasts worldwide.

I mean, 6 years since the last world tour and they're dropping a new album on March 20... that's like, forever ago 
! The fact that they've been working non-stop since July is insane, I need to know what we're getting 
. And can we talk about how cute it is that RM said they're approaching the album with the same mindset as when they first started? 
Like, they're really staying true to themselves and their fans. The world tour is going to be epic, I just hope I can get tickets 
! But seriously, this is so exciting for K-pop fans everywhere... BTS's return is like a new chapter in music history 
I'm super hyped for BTS's comeback! It feels like ages since they've dropped new music, but from what we know so far, this album is going to be something special. The fact that they've been working hard in the studio and have solo projects lined up too shows how dedicated they are to their craft. I'm sure ARMYs around the world are counting down the days until March 20 
. I mean, it's not like we haven't heard this before from K-pop groups, but still, BTS is one of the biggest names out there so they can get away with it 
. And honestly, I'm more hyped for the album than the tour itself - have you listened to their teasers? 
The studio vibes are looking fire 
.
We need more K-pop in our lives anyway 
. Their solo projects were cool while we waited, but nothing compares to the real thing. Bring it on, BTS! 
. The solo projects are cool, but it feels like they're spreading themselves too thin. We all love BTS, but let's be real, it's gonna be a lot of stress for them 
. On the bright side, the ARMY is gonna go wild when those tickets drop on January 22-23, and I'm sure it'll be an epic tour 
april 9th can't come soon enough, gonna be so hyped to see them live 
and the fact that they've been working on new music is making me super stoked for march 20th 
but do we really need an entire world tour to celebrate one album drop? 
plus, I'm not sure if I'm ready for another batch of ARMY screaming fans in every city we visit 
The fact that they're doing a world tour is just the icing on the cake, it's going to be insane to see them perform live again. I'm sure their fans, ARMY, are counting down the days until Jan 22nd when tickets go on sale. 
. I mean, who needs a 10-year hiatus before coming back with some new music? Sounds like they've just been sitting around twiddling their thumbs while the rest of us were stuck in the dark 
. And don't even get me started on how they're going to make millions off this tour... like they really care about the fans or anything 
. All that energy will probably just be spent on stage, performing the same choreographed moves for hours on end 
. I'm sure it'll all be a massive production, but at what cost? Their sanity, maybe? 
. ARMY is gonna go wild on jan 22-23 when those pre-sale tickets drop lol, good luck getting them!
