BTS will return to in-person concerts this March with three shows in Seoul.

BTS returns to the stage this March. The pop stars will perform three shows in Seoul on March 10, 12 and 13 at the Seoul Olympic Stadium in front of a live audience.

The BTS Permission to Dance on Stage – Seoul shows will also be streamed online for fans unable to attend the concerts in-person at the nearly 70,000-capacity venue. The March 10 and 13 dates will be streamed live online, while the March 12 performance will be broadcast in cinemas across the world for live viewing events.

The latest dates will mark the group’s first concert to a live audience in Korea in roughly two and a half years. The last time they appeared in-person in Korea was for the BTS World Tour ‘Love Yourself: Speak Yourself’ shows at the same venue in October 2019.

Last fall, the group returned to in-person performances with a mini-residency at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. Tickets for the four nights in Los Angeles sold out immediately and notched the biggest ever Billboard Boxscore in California.

According to Billboard Boxscore, the 2021 SoFi Stadium run grossed a mammoth $33.3 million with 214,000 tickets sold. Further, it’s the largest gross for a run of shows at a single venue since 2012, when Roger Waters earned $38 million over nine shows at Estadio River Plate in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Even further, it’s the biggest U.S.-based Boxscore in 18 years, and the second-biggest ever in the 30-year-plus history of Billboard Boxscore in North America. Overall, BTS lands the sixth best-grossing engagement in Billboard Boxscore history.

Further information on how to attend or watch the March dates will be announced on global fan community platform Weverse soon.

Ezra Furman has announced a new headline tour of the UK and Europe to take place early in 2026 – see all the dates below.

The Chicago-born singer-songwriter released her 10th studio album ‘Goodbye Small Head’ in May via Bella Union and is already set to take the record on the road around North America in August and October this year.

Now, she has added a slew of dates on the other side of the Atlantic, kicking off in Vienna, Austria on January 19 and taking in dates in Graz, Linz, Munich, Prague, Berlin, Hamburg, Amsterdam, Antwerp and Paris.

The tour rounds off with four UK dates – Glasgow, Manchester and Bristol are followed by a huge final show at the O2 Forum Kentish Town in London on February 4. Tickets are on sale now and you can find yours here.

Furman described ‘Goodbye Small Head’ as being “vivid with overwhelm”, adding: “They’re not about someone going off the rails, they are inside that person’s heart. The songwriting here is a revision to William Wordsworth’s famous proclamation that ‘Poetry is the spontaneous overow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquillity’. I can agree with that, except for the tranquillity part.”

Furman continued: “This poetry, my poetry, arrived in the midst of the storm. It was written as I teetered toward the edge. (I did the edits once I was safe again).”
