BTS has officially wrapped the North American leg of their “ARIRANG” World Tour after performing for approximately 1.92 million fans across 31 sold-out shows. The seven-member team visited 12 cities during the tour, beginning in Tampa, Florida, before ending the North American run with four concerts at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on September 1, 2, 5, and 6, 2026.
The four Los Angeles concerts attracted a combined audience of approximately 282,000 people. In addition, BTS previously performed four shows at SoFi Stadium during its “Permission to Dance on Stage” tour in 2021, bringing the group’s total attendance at the venue to around 496,000. According to Big Hit Music, BTS has now held eight concerts at SoFi Stadium, the highest number of performances by any group since the stadium opened.
Several cities and states also recognized BTS during their visit across different regions in North America. For example, Los Angeles declared September 1 through 8 “BTS Week,” while Toronto named August 22 and 23 “BTS Weekend.” Similarly, El Paso designated BTS with an “Estimado Amigo (Dear Friend” award. In Maryland, Gov. Wes Moore welcomed the boy band with a video message before their August 10 and August 11 concert. Topping things off, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum invited the “Dynamite” singers to the National Palace when the group was in Mexico City to host concerts on May 7, 9 and 10.
The group will now continue its tour in South America, beginning with two concerts in Bogotá, Colombia, on October 2 and 3. BTS will then perform in Lima, Santiago, Buenos Aires and São Paulo, marking their first full-group visits to Colombia, Peru and Argentina.
