Tickets to see pop legends BTS in Melbourne dropped earlier today. They will take over Marvel Stadium in Melbourne first on Friday, February 12 and Saturday, February 13, followed by shows in Sydney’s Accor Stadium on February 20 and 21. And now, after huge demand, a third show has been added to Melbourne. The seven-member group will kick off the Australia tour with a new show on Wednesday, February 10. The ARMY Membership Presale will be available from June 3. General sale tickets will open from June 4.
BTS World Tour ‘ARIRANG’ in Australia
The seven members have already kicked off their World Tour, launching in Goyang, South Korea last month and then continuing on to Tokyo. They’re now in the North American leg of the tour.
After the initial sale, BTS sold out all 41 stadium dates across North America, Europe and the UK. Due to incredible demand during presales, additional shows were immediately added and sold out in Tampa, Stanford and Las Vegas. And thankfully, they have decided to add a new date to Melbourne.
How to buy tickets to see BTS
The presale is available to ARMY Global Members. Registration for membership and the presale closed last week, so if you have not already done this, you will need to wait for the general sale.
During the presale, you will need your 9-digit ARMY Membership Number to unlock the tickets. This number will start with a BA, and you can find it on your Weverse account. Open the app and BTS Weverse, then tap on the membership icon. Click on ‘View Membership Details’ under your ‘Army Membership’ to find your number. On your browser, log in to Weverse and head to the BTS section. Look for BTS Membership on the right side of the screen, and click ‘View Membership Details’ to find your number. It’s best to write the number down somewhere, so you can access it quickly during the sale.
You will also need a Ticketmaster account to purchase your tickets. Check now while you’ve got time to see if you have an account, or simply make a new one. While you’re at it, check that all of your information is up-to-date, including your email, your phone number and your payment details.
In Melbourne, the ARMY Membership presale for shows on the 12th and 13th is already live. The presale for the new show will run from 10am on Wednesday, June 3. After that, the general sale will take place from 10am on Thursday, June 4.
