K-Pop supergroup BTS composed of Suga, Jin, J Hope, RM, Jimin, V and Jungkook, finally announced plans on coming to Sin City for what seemed to be a multiple date concert.
Grammy-nominated Korean supergroup BTS will dominate the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada, for four nights only.
The band will perform at the stadium in front of a nearly 65,000-person crowd on April 8, 15, 16, and 19.
Additionally, the "LIVE PLAY in LAS VEGAS" in-person live broadcast event will be hosted at the nearby MGM Grand Garden Arena for the entire four-day period.
On the final day of the tour, April 16, the "Permission To Dance On Stage" concert will also be webcast live on the internet for its avid fans, ARMY, to enjoy worldwide.
Announced earlier this month, BTS will perform three gigs in Seoul on March 10, 12, and 13 at the Seoul Olympic Stadium in front of a live crowd, after over two and a half years of not performing in front of a live audience in Korea.
The California mini-residency
For four nights, the Korean supergroup took a quick detour at the SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. The immediately sold-out concert was Billboard Boxscore's biggest in California.
Grossing a massive $33.3 million, equivalent to almost 215,000 tickets sold, the BTS mini-California residency is considered the largest gross for a run of shows in a single venue since 2012, beating Roger Waters' $38 million for nine performances in Buenos Aires in Argentina.
Furthermore, it is the largest Boxscore in the United States in 18 years and the second-largest in the more than 30-year history of Billboard Boxscore in North America.
Overall, BTS earns the sixth-highest grossing engagement in the history of Billboard Boxscore.
Health break
The 7-man Korean boy band had an "extended period of rest" after their Permission To Dance On Stage and Jingle Bell Tour performances before touring again.
The break came on the heels after the "Dynamite" hitmakers teased an upcoming new album, exciting their army of fans even more.
"BTS will be focusing on preparing for the concert and release of the new album that will mark the beginning of a "new chapter." a statement reads.
Multiple group members had also tested positive for the virus, with V being the most recent one just this month.
Big Hit reported recently that the seven already had full vaccinations as everyone tested negative already.
