BTS adds third day to 'Arirang' PH stop after ARMY clamor

Good news, Filipino ARMY! BTS is officially giving their Filo fans another day to see them live, as a third day has just been added to the Philippine leg of their ‘ARIRANG’ world tour.

Due to the overwhelming demand after the first two dates quickly sold out in minutes, an additional date has been scheduled for March 16, 2027, at the Philippine Sports Stadium. Originally, only two shows were slated on March 13 and 14, at the same venue.

Concert promoter Live Nation Philippines announced the update in a social media post on Wednesday, June 17, writing,  “One more night, one more chance to experience BTS WORLD TOUR ‘ARIRANG’ IN BULACAN.”

For tickets, ARMY membership presale will run on June 19 from 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., followed by the general sale on June 20 starting at 9:00 a.m. Each account is limited to two tickets during presale. Tickets will be available through Ticketmaster.

Prices range from ₱7,500 to ₱25,000 depending on the section: Bleachers 2 is ₱7,500, Bleachers 1 is ₱13,500, Floor Standing is ₱20,000, and VIP Soundcheck is ₱25,000.

The “Arirang” tour supports BTS’ latest album of the same name, their first release in nearly four years following their group hiatus when they rendered their mandatory military service. 

The upcoming concerts also mark BTS’ first full-group return to the Philippines in 10 years, since their “BTS LIVE Trilogy Episode III: The Wings Tour” stop in 2017.

While waiting for the world tour, fans and music lovers can stream the 14-track “Arirang” album, which includes songs such as “Swim,” “2.0,” and “Body to Body.”
