Singapore to host 4-night BTS performance in December 2026, the longest run in Asia, outside of Korea and Japan

Singapore, 14 January 2026 ─ Singapore Tourism Board welcomes BTS to Singapore for four nights in December this year, marking it the longest stop in Asia, outside of Korea and Japan, for the BTS World Tour. This underscores Singapore as a premier destination for entertainment with a vibrant, year-round calendar of exciting leisure experiences.

Singapore is well-positioned to host multi-night concerts of this scale. A strong track record in hosting major international events stems from the collective strength of Singapore’s entertainment ecosystem, encompassing expertise in delivering exceptional experiences, world-class venues, strong regional connectivity, excellent infrastructure, safe environment and diverse accommodation options that cater to different traveller preferences.

Ms Guo Teyi, Director, Leisure Events, Singapore Tourism Board, says, “We’re pleased to host the BTS World Tour for four nights in Singapore in partnership with Klook – the longest run in Asia outside of Korea and Japan. This milestone reflects the strong collaborative partnership with HYBE and its label, and is a testament to the growing confidence international artists and producers have in Singapore’s ability to deliver unforgettable, world-class live entertainment. We look forward to welcoming ARMY, and to showcasing not only an extraordinary series of performances, but also the vibrant and distinctive experiences our city has to offer.”

Since 2024, STB has partnered with HYBE and its labels. This has encompassed diverse initiatives including content creation for social media, and event participation featuring prominent K-pop acts such as j-hope, SEVENTEEN, and ENHYPEN. Most recently, Singapore was featured in Jin’s music video “Don’t Say You Love Me”.

An official from HYBE says, “We are delighted to continue our partnership with STB, which has brought meaningful experiences to fans through our diverse roster of artists. While Singapore offers excellent infrastructure, it is the incredible passion and energy of our fans that truly makes it the perfect stage for BTS to connect with the audience. We are thrilled to present these performances for the fans who have waited for us, and look forward to exploring more innovative ways to bring our music and artists closer to them in the region.”

STB and Klook have a longstanding partnership to drive inbound tourism growth to Singapore. This was expanded last year to include new growth opportunities in line with STB’s Tourism 2040 ambitions. Ms. Sarah Wan, General Manager, Singapore, Indonesia and Malaysia, says, “We are proud to work with the Singapore Tourism Board and HYBE to bring global icons BTS to Singapore. Together, we are reshaping how fans experience travel and entertainment. With a strong track record supporting major concerts and events across Asia, we are excited to connect fans with this world-class experience and showcase the best of what Singapore has to offer. We look forward to working alongside with STB and HYBE to deliver a successful event.”

BTS has a strong history with audiences in Singapore, having performed here several times since their debut, including in 2014 as part of their ‘BTS 2014 LIVE TRILOGY EPISODE 2! THE RED BULLET’ tour at The Star Theatre, and in 2017 for the ‘KBS Music Bank World Tour’ at Suntec Singapore Convention & Exhibition Centre. Notably, their concert in 2019 for their ‘LOVE YOURSELF’ tour made them the first K-pop act to play at, and sell out, the Singapore National Stadium¹. BTS members have also held solo concerts; with SUGA performing in 2023 and j-hope in 2025, both at the Singapore Indoor Stadium.

K-pop concerts in Singapore consistently attract regional and international fans. Recent examples include SEVENTEEN’s sold-out shows on two nights at the National Stadium in January 2025, and sold-out shows by TXT in September 2024 and ENHYPEN in October 2025, both at the Singapore Indoor Stadium.

STB continues to work closely with event organisers to develop and bring in other high quality, lifestyle events that appeal to both locals and visitors, adding vibrancy to our tourism landscape.
