In October 2025,
Bloomberg News reported that BTS would hold "their largest world tour to date" the following year. The first batch of dates was announced on January 13, 2026, under the name BTS World Tour, with additional shows to be added in Japan, the Middle East, and more countries in 2027. Two days later, it was revealed that group would call their forthcoming album
Arirang. The performances will feature a 360-degree stage setup. Tickets to their concerts in South Korea, North America, and Europe were sold out within a few hours of the pre-sale and general sale. Mexico's president
Claudia Sheinbaum appealed to South Korea's president
Lee Jae Myung to add more shows in her country, after local concert promoter
Ocesa told her that the band's packed itinerary made adding shows unfeasible. On April 8, 2026, BTS added three concerts to the Latin American leg of the tour, scheduling one additional show each in
Lima,
Santiago, and
Buenos Aires. == Set list ==
