BTS have completed the North American leg of their BTS WORLD TOUR 'ARIRANG', performing for approximately 1.92 million attendees across 12 locations and 31 sold-out shows.
The tour concluded with four concerts at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on September 1-2 and 5-6 local time. The Los Angeles shows were also livestreamed on Weverse and watched across 177 countries and regions.










BTS drew more than 282,000 people in Los Angeles, bringing their total number of performances at SoFi Stadium to eight, including four shows during their 2021 BTS PERMISSION TO DANCE ON STAGE - LA concerts.
Their eight-show attendance at the venue reached approximately 496,000, the source said, marking the largest audience gathered by a group since the stadium opened.
The Los Angeles concerts also included birthday celebrations for Jung Kook and RM. Fans sang birthday songs and used gold and blue lights inspired by Jung Kook's solo album GOLDEN and RM's album Indigo.
During the performance of Body to Body from the fifth studio album ARIRANG, fans raised South Korean flags as the traditional song Arirang played in the arrangement.
At the end of the tour's North American leg, BTS told fans, “It feels unreal that we are already saying goodbye at the final destination, Los Angeles. Since we were happy, every moment passed by so quickly. We will treasure these memories.” The members added that they hoped to remain connected with fans wherever they are.
Jung Kook also showed fans a postcard he had drawn himself and said, “I want to tell you that you are perfect to me.”
International media including the Associated Press, Billboard, the Los Angeles Times and Forbes covered the Los Angeles shows. The Los Angeles Times described BTS as a “world-class pop act,” while Forbes highlighted the concert's cultural impact across the city.
Los Angeles declared September 1-8 as 'BTS Week'. Other cities and regions across North America also announced BTS-themed celebrations during the tour, including Toronto's 'BTS Weekend' and Illinois' 'BTS Day in Illinois.'
After completing the North American leg, BTS will continue the BTS WORLD TOUR 'ARIRANG' in South America, beginning in Bogotá, Colombia, on October 2 before visiting Lima, Santiago, Buenos Aires and São Paulo.
