After years of hiatuses, solo eras, and the Army collectively holding their breath, world-renowned K-pop boy band BTS is finally giving the people what they’ve been yearning for: getting back on stage together. And they’re not easing into it. The group has announced a full-scale world tour kicking off in April 2026 – their first proper global run in nearly four years – and yes, Asia has most definitely made the list.

Titled BTS WORLD TOUR, the run marks their first tour since Permission to Dance On Stage wrapped in Las Vegas back in 2022. And it’s massive – we’re talking 34 cities, 79 shows, and the largest single-tour run by a K-pop act to date.

But let’s get to the part Asia’s been refreshing their feeds for. This 2026, BTS will sweep through the region with a packed run of shows. The tour opens in April with shows in Goyang, South Korea, followed by Tokyo, Japan, before circling back to Busan in June. Kaohsiung gets three nights in November, followed by Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore (four nights, no less), Jakarta, and Hong Kong. Manila closes out the Asia leg in March 2027. If you’re counting, that’s multiple-night stops across nearly every major Southeast and East Asian city.

Beyond the dates, the tour is also making technical history. Every show will feature a 360-degree, in-the-round stage – the first time a K-pop stadium tour has gone fully circular. 

Ticket and venue details for the Asia dates have yet to be released, so stay tuned for more updates.

Here’s the full rundown of BTS’ Asia dates for their 2026 – 2027 World Tour:
