The tour marks the group's first headline performances since their 2021-22 Permission to Dance on Stage tour.
A presale will take place Jan. 22 and Jan. 23 for ARMY Membership holders who register on Weverse, an online fan platform owned by BTS management company HYBE. A general sale for all regions will follow on Jan. 24.
According to LiveNation, which is promoting the world tour, the tour will feature a 360-degree, in-the-round stage design. The immersive setup places the audience at the center of the experience while allowing for increased capacity at every venue.
The news arrives a few weeks after the entertainment company BigHit Music revealed that BTS will make their return to music on March 20, following a nearly four-year hiatus.
That's because all seven members of BTS - RM, Jin, Jimin, V, Suga, Jung Kook and j-hope - had to complete South Korea's mandatory military service.
Rapper Suga was the last group member to be released, from his duties as a social service agent, an alternative to serving in the military that he reportedly chose due to a shoulder injury. That was in June 2025.
The six others, RM, V, Jimin, Jung Kook, Jin and j-hope, served in the army.
