Global K-pop phenomenon BTS has officially announced their long-awaited return to the United Kingdom, sending the British ARMY into a frenzy. The band will perform two exclusive concerts in London in the summer of 2026, marking their first live shows in the country since their Permission To Dance On Stage Tour.
Key Dates and Venue for UK Fans
The iconic seven-member group will take to the stage at London's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on two consecutive nights. The confirmed UK tour dates are Monday, July 6, and Tuesday, July 7, 2026. These concerts form a crucial part of the band's colossal world tour, which is scheduled to span 2026 and 2027, beginning in their home country of South Korea in April.
How to Access the Exclusive Presale
For dedicated fans hoping to secure tickets early, a limited presale event has been announced. The BTS presale will begin at 1pm on Thursday, January 22, 2026. Access to this presale is being managed exclusively through the official ARMY Membership programme.
However, there is a critical registration deadline. Only fans who registered for the presale before 11pm on Sunday, January 18, 2026, will be eligible to participate. This registration window has now closed, meaning new members cannot sign up for this early access opportunity.
General Sale and VIP Ticket Information
For those without presale access, the general sale for all BTS tickets will commence shortly after. The general onsale starts at 1pm on Saturday, January 24, 2026. No special codes or prior registration will be required at this stage.
Tickets will be available from major retailers including Ticketmaster and Live Nation. For fans seeking a premium experience, VIP and hospitality packages will be sold via Seat Unique. These exclusive tickets promise superior seating alongside special perks such as complimentary food and drink.
What This Tour Means for the UK ARMY
This announcement ends a lengthy hiatus for BTS performances in the UK, with the upcoming shows representing their first here in over four years. The choice of the 62,000-capacity Tottenham Hotspur Stadium underscores the band's immense and enduring popularity. With a catalogue of global hits like Dynamite, Butter, and Attack on Bangtan to draw from, these July dates are poised to be among the most sought-after live music events of 2026.
Fans are advised to prepare their payment details and accounts in advance of the sales, with demand expected to be exceptionally high for both the member presale and the general public release.
