BTS, a globally acclaimed seven-member South Korean boy band, sold out both of its London concerts at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium within 30 minutes, according to Ticketmaster. The performances, scheduled for July 6 and 7, 2026, are part of the group’s ARIRANG World Tour, marking their first full-group shows in nearly four years after completing mandatory military service.
Promoter Live Nation UK confirmed that the London leg will likely set the highest non-sporting attendance in the stadium’s history, with around 120,000 fans expected across the two nights. A 360-degree stage design allows maximum capacity, exceeding the stadium’s usual 62,000 for football matches.
Ticket demand was unprecedented, with fans, collectively known as ARMY, scrambling globally. Both shows vanished from Ticketmaster in just half an hour, and many pre-sale participants were left empty-handed. The success mirrors the broader 82-date ARIRANG tour, which has already sold out in Asia and continues across Europe and North America.
BTS’s comeback also includes their fifth full-length album, Arirang, releasing on March 20, 2026, and is already topping Spotify’s global pre-save charts. The London concerts highlight BTS’s cultural impact and the devotion of their international fanbase, promising one of the defining live-music events of 2026.
