ARMY, we are so back! The comeback we’ve all been waiting for is almost here — BTS’ fifth album, ARIRANG, officially drops on March 20, 2026. While we eagerly await the big day, there’s one really big piece of important business to handle first: securing your ticket(s) to BTS’ 2026 World Tour. Note: To jump right into ticket purchasing, click on any of the buttons below. Otherwise, read on to learn everything you need to know to successfully secure your ticket today, and where you might be able to find the cheapest seats.
As you’re well-aware, BTS recently announced a nearly year-long “BTS World Tour”, slated to kick off this April in Tampa, FL. Although many of us saw it coming, news of the highly anticipated tour was very much welcome for fans following the South Korean boy band’s four-year hiatus. Given all the excitement over seeing the boys back together and the new music to come, tickets are expected to sell out in seconds.
If you’re looking to see RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V and Jungkook take the stage this year as they tour across the world for the first time since the “Permission to Dance on Stage” tour in 2022, then you’ll need to secure your tickets ASAP. As we said, this won’t be an easy feat given millions of people will be logging on at the same time. However, the more knowledge you have on how to get tickets to see BTS live in concert, the better.
That’s where we come in!
Ahead, we’ve listed everything you need to know to increase your likelihood of securing BTS World Tour tickets, so you can see your ULT-bias live in concert this year. Now, let’s get to it.
How to Get Early Access to BTS World Tour Tickets 2026
It’s important to note that presale for the BTS 2026 World Tour is only available to members of the official ARMY fan club. These tickets go on sale on January 22nd and January 23rd for select shows. If you’re already a member, you’ll want to register for the presale now on Weverse and verify your membership by January 18 at 6:00 p.m. ET and 3:00 p.m. PT. Only those who have pre-registered will have access to the presale tickets on January 22nd, so it’s imperative that has been done ahead of time.
Members will be given a 9-digit ARMY membership number that starts with “BA.” This will unlock access to tickets during the presale.
According to the official BTS website, for shows in the US, Canada, and Mexico, you’ll need to use your US or GLOBAL Membership number. If you have both US and GLOBAL Memberships, only your US Membership number will be validated. This is what you’ll enter for the “presale code.” For shows in the UK and Europe, you’ll need to use your GLOBAL Membership number.
If you aren’t part of the ARMY fan club, tickets for the “BTS World Tour” will be on sale at Ticketmaster starting Saturday, January 24th. The times for the pre-sale and regular sale will vary based on market, so you’ll want to check the show you’re planning on. This leads us to our next important “to know.”
When Do BTS World Tour Presale Tickets Go on Sale for My City?
Excellent question! For this, we turned to our fellow ARMY on Reddit. The BTS 2026 Comeback Tour Megathread has pretty much all the info you need to know, including when you should log on to buy tickets. As mentioned before, presale times vary by city. So, check the list below to see when your city’s presale time opens for North America tour dates.
TAMPA: 9 a.m. on Thursday, January 22 (Local Time)
MEXICO CITY Day 1 and 2: 9 a.m. on Friday, January 23 (Local Time)
MEXICO CITY Day 3: 12 p.m. on Friday, January 23 (Local Time)

Again, general sale opens on Saturday, January 24th for anyone who isn’t a member or wasn’t able to secure a ticket during the presale. Yes, it does happen and very often! So, be sure to keep your presale launch time in mind and have the ticketing site open around 15 to 30 minutes before.
Where to Find the Cheapest Tickets for BTS’ 2026 World Tour
Prices for BTS tour tickets do vary, with some of the lowest-end prices being around $150 to $200, from what we’ve seen. We’ve also seen tickets well into the thousands. For the BTS 2026 World Tour, tickets will be available through official sellers like Ticketmaster in the U.S. and Live Nation events, as well as authorized platforms in other regions. That said, if you’re looking to find cheaper tickets to the tour, you’ll want to check other platforms such as StubHub, Vivid Seats and SeatGeek.
But of course, if you’re really looking to score those insanely good cheap deals, it’s recommended to wait until closer to the date (sometimes even the day of) to check if anyone has posted tickets at less than face value. At that point, fans who can’t make the show or haven’t sold their tickets will be looking to offload them. We know it’s stressful and totally risky, but it is a good last-minute option.
WHERE TO BUY CHEAPEST TICKETS FOR BTS WORLD TOUR 2025
StubHub
As far as finding tickets go, especially from resellers, you can’t go wrong with StubHub. Their site is safe, super easy to use, and generally a good for both sellers and buyers. Plus, a lot of people use StubHub to both buy and sell, especially for K-Pop concerts. That means, there should be a good amount of options available to you, especially after tickets drop. So, we’d recommend starting here (after trying your luck on Ticketmaster, of course).
WHERE TO BUY CHEAPEST TICKETS FOR BTS WORLD TOUR 2025
SeatGeek
SeatGeek is another good option to check out if you’re looking to score BTS concert tickets in 2026. They have a “Deal Score” feature, which allows you to see whether you’re actually getting a good deal on your ticket or not. They also have view from my seat features, that can show you what you can expect from your ticket.
WHERE TO BUY CHEAPEST TICKETS FOR BTS WORLD TOUR 2025
Vivid Seats
Lastly, we’ve got Vivid Seats. It’s another legitimate source for buying concert tickets, if you’re someone who likes to compare prices. While it may not have as many options as StubHub or SeatGeek, it’s always worth doing a bit of research and checking out all your options just in case.
