Ticketing details have been released for K-pop powerhouse BTS’ long-awaited comeback concert at Seoul’s Gwanghwamun Square, as the group prepares to reunite as a full septet for the first time in nearly four years.
The free outdoor show, titled “BTS THE COMEBACK LIVE : ARIRANG,” will be open to the public through two channels — general ticket reservations and a separate Weverse-based global fan lottery — according to global fan platform Weverse on Monday.
General tickets will be available beginning at 8 p.m. on Feb. 23 through NOL Ticket, the Korean ticketing service handling the event. The service offers both Korean and international interfaces — the latter known as NOL World — and accepts major international credit cards, allowing overseas visitors to participate in the booking process.
Full booking instructions will be released at noon on Feb. 20 via Weverse and NOL Ticket.
A Weverse Global raffle will also be held exclusively for members of the official BTS fandom, ARMY, who purchase BTS’ upcoming album during the designated entry period. The raffle is open to all purchasers, regardless of nationality. Winners will be selected by lottery, with further details to be announced on Weverse Tuesday.
The concert is scheduled for March 21 at 8 p.m., transforming the central Seoul plaza into an open-air stage. The venue will be divided into standing and reserved seating zones, with different entry procedures and rules depending on the section.
As a free public performance, the show is expected to draw not only fans but also casual passersby, reflecting the group’s stated effort to bring music into shared civic spaces. Plans are also underway to broadcast the concert live on nearby electronic billboards, extending the experience beyond the immediate venue.
The performance will also be streamed live to audiences in more than 190 countries and regions through Netflix, marking the platform’s first live broadcast of a concert by a single group or artist.
Coinciding with the album’s release on March 20, BTS will further extend their comeback with “BTS THE CITY ARIRANG SEOUL,” running through April 12, featuring media installations and large-scale visual projects across the city.
