BTS IS COMING BACK TO JAKARTA , IT'S CALLED 'ARIRANG'
SHARE THE STORY

The last time BTS performed in Jakarta, fans camped outside GBK days in advance. Now they're back — and they're bringing a world tour named after one of Korea's most iconic cultural symbols.

BTS World Tour 'Arirang' officially lands in Jakarta on December 26 and 27, 2026, at Stadion Utama Gelora Bung Karno. Organized by HYBE, Live Nation, and local promoter IME Indonesia, this is BTS's first full-scale world tour since the group completed their mandatory military service. It is one of the most anticipated K-pop events Indonesia has seen in years — and tickets go on general sale June 11, 2026 at 12PM WIB exclusively through Tiket.com.

What Is BTS World Tour "Arirang"?


"Arirang" is a traditional Korean folk song so deeply embedded in Korean identity that UNESCO inscribed it as an Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2012. Naming a world tour after it isn't just a marketing move — it signals that BTS is returning as a complete, reunited group carrying the full weight of their cultural legacy. For Indonesian ARMY, two nights at GBK means twice the chance to witness that moment live.

How to Buy BTS Arirang Tickets in Jakarta

There are two pre-general-sale windows before the public gets access. First, ARMY Membership Presale Registration runs May 22–27, 2026 via Weverse. To qualify, you need an active ARMY Membership (Global) on Weverse Shop and must register your Tiket.com account separately. Your ARMY Membership number becomes your presale access code.

The actual ARMY Membership Presale purchase window opens June 9, 2026, 12PM–10PM WIB. You can purchase a maximum of 4 tickets per Tiket.com account per show day. Miss that window, and General Onsale opens June 11 at 12PM WIB — same 4-ticket cap applies.

"Registration for the presale is compulsory after signing up for ARMY Membership (Global) — just having the membership isn't enough." — Official concert info, BTS Arirang Jakarta

One Thing Most People Will Miss

Here's what fans are already talking about: the presale registration closed May 27. If you didn't register during that window (May 22–27), you cannot access the June 9 presale — at all. You'll have to wait for general sale on June 11. That's a three-day gap where tens of thousands of ARMY members have first access to every seat category.

The air at GBK in late December will feel different this time. Post-military, full group, world tour. Whatever "Arirang" sounds like live, 60,000 people in Jakarta are about to find out.
