BTS is back, and it’s already a circus to try to secure tickets across the monster 79-show stadium run. Expect to pay a pretty penny to see the K-pop kings in action.

The long-awaited return of BTS to the global stage is much more than just a milestone for the K-pop sensation’s devoted ARMY fanbase: it’s a nightmare in logistics. It’s also going to cost most fans more than a pretty penny just to get in.

So what are the prices like? Early analysis of listings implies the usual “speculative” market, especially since face-value tickets haven’t officially launched yet. As a result, current listing analysis is widely based on professional sellers anticipating their own inventory.

Just to get in, starting prices in Los Angeles are estimated at around $431, with a median asking price of $2,386, and an average listing range of $1,322 to $4,439. Yep, you guessed it—it’s going to be Taylor Swift and Oasis all over again.

Some markets are estimated to go even higher, with Toronto shows currently expected to be the highest just to get in the door, starting at around $1,000.

The full run of shows for the BTS World Tour 2026-2027 features a monster run of 79 shows across 34 regions. To maximize capacity and provide better line of sight, the tour will utilize a 360-degree “in-the-round” stage design in order to turn every show into an immersive space.

Tickets will be released in phases, and time is running out to register for the presale. It is almost guaranteed that not registering for the presale will result in an inability to secure tickets except on the secondary market—the Wild West for pricing.

To sign up for the ARMY Membership Presale, fans must be registered on Weverse in the ARMY Membership program. The deadline to register is on Sunday, January 18, with times varying by region. The ARMY Membership Presale begins on Thursday, January 22, with select dates available starting the next day. Finally, the general onsale begins on Saturday, January 24.

Weverse and Live Nation remind fans to make sure their Weverse email matches their Ticketmaster email. An email mismatch is one of the most common reasons why fans get kicked out of the presale queue.
