K-pop idols BTS have announced a globe-spanning, 79-date world tour, marking their return to the stage after a four-year hiatus.

With dates in London, Tokyo, Munich, Sydney and Los Angeles, it's likely to be one of the biggest tours of the year, especially as the band haven't played outside of the US and South Korea since 2018.

Their previous world tour set records for a K-pop act - earning about $246 million (£182 million) at the global box office. Along the way, BTS became the first Korean act to headline Wembley Stadium.

The new tour will kick off with three nights in South Korea's Goyang Stadium on 9 April, 2026, before setting off across Asia, Europe and America.

The show will see the band performing on a 360-degree, in-the-round stage, allowing for more seats to be made available at every venue.
