BTS, record-breaking comeback: how to buy reunion tickets
Ticket pre-sales for the BTS reunion tour started yesterday, but the race to purchase tickets for the concerts announced by the South Korean boyband for next summer will only come into full swing tomorrow, Saturday 24 January, when general sales will start on Ticketmaster at 1pm. Yet it is already controversial among the group’s fans.
Yes, because the feeling, shared by fans on social media, is that when general sales open tomorrow the availability of tickets will be decidedly limited. Many coupons were “burned” with yesterday’s pre-sales. On social media there are those who say they found themselves facing queues of 40 thousand or 60 thousand users, without then being able to access the purchase of tickets due to too many simultaneous accesses from all over the world: they will try again tomorrow.
European BTS fans who have already managed to purchase tickets have appreciated the organizers’ choice not to activate the dynamic pricing practice, the one used, for example, for the Oasis reunion shows, which sees prices increase based on demand. Prices for European shows are between 80 and 600 euros, depending on the sector chosen. According to estimates, the tour will gross over 1 billion dollars from ticket sales, merchandising, gadgets and so on.
BTS’ world tour will kick off on April 9 in Goyang, South Korea. After a series of shows in the United States, it will arrive in Europe on July 1, 2026 for the first of two concerts in Brussels, Belgium. Italy is not currently part of the itinerary of the South Korean boy band, which however has promised to return to the stage in 2027, in other countries. In addition to Brussels, Italian fans can join BTS on other European dates: on 6 and 7 July the group will be at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, on the 11th and 12th at the Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany, on 17 and 18 July at the Stade de France in Paris, France.
Meanwhile, on March 20 the boyband will release the new album “Arirang”: it is the first in six years, as many as have passed since “Be” in 2020.
