BTS Opens ARIRANG World Tour Las Vegas Residency — Night 1 at Allegiant Stadium Draws 65,000 ARMY

BTS kicks off their Las Vegas engagement on May 23, 2026, performing Night 1 of four sold-out shows at Allegiant Stadium (65,000 capacity). All four Las Vegas shows (May 23, 24, 27, 28) sold out in just 23 minutes — the fastest sellout in Allegiant Stadium history. The ARIRANG World Tour features a revolutionary 360-degree in-the-round stage design giving every seat an unobstructed view, performing approximately 23 songs drawn from ARIRANG and the group's decade-long catalog, including 'Hooligan,' 'Aliens,' 'Run BTS,' 'FAKE LOVE,' 'SWIM,' and 'Merry Go Round.' Following the show, BTS takes over Las Vegas marquees from 11 PM–midnight with curated ARIRANG content; iconic landmarks including the Luxor pyramid beam and the High Roller glow in ARIRANG red. A special fireworks show atop the MGM Grand marks Night 1. The Las Vegas Sun, Art Threat, and Vegas Inc documented the massive ARMY presence, with nearly 50 resorts, attractions, and entertainment venues welcoming BTS back to the city for the first time since the historic 2022 PTD On Stage residency. An estimated 200,000+ fans converged on Las Vegas for the four-night engagement.
