The tour and the album

The ARIRANG World Tour is already shaping up to be the largest global K-pop tour of all time, covering stadiums across Asia, North America, Europe, Latin America and Southeast Asia. The production uses a 360-degree, in-the-round stage design that places fans at the centre of the venue while expanding overall capacity.

The tour supports ARIRANG, BTS' fifth studio album, released in March 2026. The record debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, marking the group's sixth chart-topper there since 2020. It is also the band's first headline tour together since the Permission to Dance on Stage run, which included 12 sold-out shows across Seoul, Los Angeles and Las Vegas.

The seven members, RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V and Jung Kook, are five-time Grammy nominees and were named TIME's Entertainer of the Year in 2020.
