In case you haven’t heard, BTS’s 2026 World Tour is currently in the works, and if confirmed, it will be the band’s largest world tour, covering 65 cities!
The band was temporarily disbanded due to their military enlistment, with Jin entering the military in December 2022, while the rest followed in 2023. The group was back together after the last member to leave their military enlistment, Suga, was discharged on 21st June, 2025. And ever since then, fans have been awaiting their reunion and updates on a possible new album.
Their full-record album will be released at the end of March 2026, their first record in six years. This new comeback album also poses the perfect opportunity for the biggest world tour for BTS. They are rumored to go to 65 cities, out of which more than 30 are in the United States. The list might also include cities they haven’t visited yet, such as Sydney and Mumbai—which just adds to the frenzy of ARMYs in Australia and India.
According to Hybe Big Hit Music’s statement as reported by Bloomberg, “Details regarding the dates and scale of BTS’s new world tour remain unconfirmed.” So while the dates and scale of entire tour are not yet confirmed, fans are hoping that the band finally visits their hometown and delivers their iconic performances live. And of course, their reactions flooded social media platforms.

While we all wait for the tickets to go live, we’re thinking about those iconic concert moments from their tours before COVID-19, wondering if we’ll see that magic again. So let’s just go down memory lane and relive some of the iconic moments in BTS concerts, which I would really love to see happen again in 2026:
1. Starting with the bouncy castle set-up for Anpanman in the Love Yourself 2019 tour, which gave us some of the cutest moments of the members on stage!
The self-cam recording of the members playing on the bouncy castle while singing their most upbeat songs remains a fan favorite. And honestly, I hope they bring it back while singing Butter, Permission to Dance, and Dynamite!
They went all out with these stage decorations, and clearly, it remains in every ARMY’s mind.

2. Speaking of iconic stage decorations and performances, let’s talk about the entirety of BTS’s 5th Muster: Magic Shop in Busan, 2019—it really was a thing of beauty!
The 5th Muster: Magic Shop at Busan remains close to many ARMYs’ hearts, as they performed beloved songs such as Pied Piper, Dimple, and Magic Shop in that beautiful cafe store setup, making this concert one of the most memorable and notable ones!
BTS 5th Muster: Magic Shop, you’ll always have a special place in my heart ❤️🩹

3. This performance by the rap line (Suga, RM, and J-hope) of their famous song, Ddaeng, captivated fans, being the first-ever live performance of the song, and ARMYs got to watch them deliver it in all its glory!
The song is loved by ARMYs, as the lyrics go about calling out BTS’s haters. Fans particularly love RM’s verse, where he perfectly mimics haters who stutter while hating on BTS.
If Ddaeng, sung by the rappers themselves, wasn’t that iconic, the vocal line (members who sing: Jin, Jimin, V, and Jungkook) performed the rap song at the 5th muster in Busan, proving they all are indeed all-rounders, making the performance ever-memorable.

4. This video from a fan shows how the entire concert stadium united to sing the healing lyric from Jin’s solo song, Epiphany, which is just so heartwarming to see!
Seeing epiphany live meant so much to me because it was truly one of bts songs that makes me cry so hard. The lyrics speak to me so much and it was so emotional seeing a whole stadium sing out the lyrics “I’m the one I should love, in this world” pic.twitter.com/rgeyjurmy5

5. The time when BTS surprised fans with the first ever live performance of the truly underrated song that we all love—Spinebreaker, in a performance that honestly is Oscar-worthy.
It’s the chaotic energy of BTS that we all love and adore, making this the ARMY’s favorite performance from the 5th Muster.
6. When BTS performed at a sold-out gig at Wembley stadium, Jin recreated Freddie Mercury’s iconic ‘Ay-oh’ crowd work with ARMYs, and they delivered!
If they perform again at Wembley, this MUST happen. It is not a Wembley show without it.
7. During the Yet To Come free concert in Busan, BTS opened the show with these banger songs back-to-back: Run BTS and Mic Drop. And fans were riled up for the epic dance break!
Imagine not having to pay for the tickets AND seeing this high-energy performance at the start. Just too good!
8. And finally, the most touching surprise from ARMYs to our favorite singers: when they sang the song Young Forever back to BTS in Korean. And the members visibly teared up.
ARMYs around the world, this must be recreated on their first show back after 7 years. It will be the most magical moment ever!
These are just a few of the most memorable moments from past BTS concerts, and I’m sure with the new album on the way as well as the tour, we can expect the comeback of the lifetime. And I am so, so ready! The day the tickets come out, you know I’ll be sitting with multiple laptops open so I can see our favorite members again.
