BTS Live in Paris: Two Nights at Stade de France
On 17 and 18 July 2026, BTS take the stage at the iconic Stade de France in Saint-Denis for two back-to-back concerts. These are the only French dates of the BTS World Tour Arirang and serve as the grand European finale of the tour. With a capacity of up to 80,000 fans per night, the national stadium of France will host over 160,000 ARMY members across both evenings. All seven members including Jin, Suga, J-Hope, RM, Jimin, V and Jungkook perform together on a European stage for the first time since completing their mandatory military service in South Korea.
What Is the BTS World Tour Arirang?
The BTS World Tour Arirang is the biggest K-pop world tour ever staged. Produced by Live Nation, the tour spans 79 concerts across 34 regions worldwide. It launched on 9 April 2026 with three consecutive shows in Goyang, South Korea, before heading to Tokyo, North America and Europe. The tour takes its name from Korea's most beloved traditional folk song and supports BTS's fifth studio album, released on 20 March 2026.
The stage design of the Arirang tour features a 360-degree in-the-round configuration, with the stage placed at the centre of the arena floor. The audience surrounds the stage from every angle, creating an immersive experience and allowing for a significantly higher venue capacity at each stop.

Visitor Tips for ARMY in Paris
- Arrive early: with 80,000 attendees, security checks and entry will take longer than expected.
- Buy merchandise only from official stadium stands or verified online stores.
- Bring a light jacket for the evening as July nights in Paris can cool down.
- Book accommodation in Paris well in advance; the city will be very busy across the 17th and 18th July weekend.
- Note that glass containers are strictly prohibited at Stade de France; drinks in plastic cups are available inside.
- If you were unable to get a ticket, both concerts will be streamed live on Weverse.
