BTS has sold out tickets for its upcoming Busan concerts as part of the ‘ARIRANG’ world tour.
The group will perform at Busan Asiad Main Stadium on June 12 and 13. According to agency BigHit Music on April 30 KST, all tickets for both shows were sold out during the official fan club presale held through NOL Ticket.
This marks BTS’s return to the Busan venue for the first time in about three years and eight months since their October 2022 concert “Yet to Come in Busan,” held in support of the city’s bid for the 2030 World Expo. The upcoming concerts carry added significance as they reunite with fans at the same location where they last performed before their military hiatus. Notably, June 13 also marks the group’s debut anniversary.
To celebrate the Busan concerts, BTS will launch ‘BTS THE CITY ARIRANG’ across the city from June 5 to 21. The project aims to transform Busan into a large-scale cultural hub by integrating the group’s music and storytelling into various urban spaces, offering fans an immersive, citywide experience.
Meanwhile, BTS recently performed in Tampa at Raymond James Stadium on April 25–26 and 28, drawing a total of 190,000 attendees. The tour will continue in El Paso, Texas, on May 2 and 3, where local authorities have officially declared the performance period as “El Paso BTS Weekend” and honored the group with the “Estimado Amigo” award.
Local estimates suggest the concerts could generate an economic impact of approximately 110.5 billion KRW (about 74 million USD), highlighting BTS’s powerful global influence.
