BTS Sets Sold-Out SoFi Stadium Stand to Close Out US Tour
The K-pop giants are playing four sold-out nights in Inglewood to wrap the North American leg of their post-military comeback tour, sending hotel searches into overdrive.

BTS is in the middle of closing out its comeback tour in spectacular fashion. The K-pop juggernaut is playing four sold-out nights at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California — September 1, 2, 5 and 6 — the final stop on the North American leg of its ARIRANG World Tour and the group's biggest live run since wrapping mandatory military service back in South Korea.
All four shows sold out within the tour's very first on-sale wave back in January, leaving only pricey resale tickets for fans still hoping to get in the door. The production is built around a 360-degree center stage with four catwalks stretching deep into the crowd, with a setlist anchored by the group's tenth studio album, "Arirang," released in March, alongside solo cuts from all seven members.
The scale of fan demand has been staggering enough to move the travel industry: searches for hotels near tour stops have spiked as much as 6,700% in cities hosting the band, and resale tickets in some markets have reportedly gone for thousands of dollars over face value. Tickets in the general on-sale ranged roughly from $70 to $300-plus depending on seat location — before scalpers got involved, prompting South Korean officials to vow a crackdown on resellers price-gouging fans back home.
The run caps off what's being called one of the biggest international music events of the year: BTS's first world tour since all seven members returned from their nearly two-year military service, a hiatus that had fans wondering when — or if — the group would ever reunite on this scale again. With two more sold-out nights still to come this weekend, the ARIRANG tour's American chapter is closing exactly the way it opened: with Army losing their minds and hotel booking sites crashing under the demand. Members previously served up to 21 months each in South Korea's mandatory military, making the Inglewood run one of the clearest signs yet that the group's full-scale comeback is officially here to stay.
