Live updates!

I know you’re hearing a lot about BTS right now! With us being in the middle of one of the most anticipated comebacks and talked about tours, it’s hard not to post them multiple times a week! Or maybe as an ARMY that’s my excuse, but nevertheless, here we are again!

We will only be reporting on Day 1 of ticketing just so you know what to expect the next day and for on sale tickets! Anything from the rest of the days will most likely be in a separate article or in the F10$$ series (where we review the stadium, show, and talent)!

Everything about the tour is in this article → Tour Alert: BTS World Tour!

There’s some great advice in this article!  → 7 BTS Ticketing Tips for ‘Arirang’

Quick Disclaimer: this is a casual toned article with BTS fan terms thrown around every now and then! It will have a mix of fun and fact! So enjoy!!!

Attempt 1: Standford, California

We’re going to NY to Cali! Well, we’re pretty much just staying in Calif this time around, but here’s how we’re doing with ticketing and some things we learned along the way.

UPDATE: They did just add another day! Check out the additional day on the 23rd! If you did the previous application, then you are automatically good to go! 🙂

The clock ticks by…feels like Zero O’clock…

I waited to go into the queue about 15 minutes late just to give ARMY a shot as I am just checking out how it’s going to be in the queue line. I am not interested too much in the other stops, but I know there are some who are so I waited. I will say, the queue most likely is lower because people did get the seats they wanted already, but I was expecting it to not move at all. But make sure to prepare early.

Ticketmaster did stay true to their promise. I was able to go into both queue lines at once. And that’s really reassuring. But with the kindness of your heart, I think if you really want one show, go to one show.

And if you are there to resell, go find something else to do. We want everyone to get a chance to get in that actually cares no offense. And you reselling…well have a talk another day. Making tons of money off of someone’s desperation…we’re having that talk. But yeah, don’t be that person to ruin a full sold-out show!

I heard desktop is best. However today I heard mobile is best. Do what’s best for you. Maybe because I’m late in the queue, it feels like there’s no difference. But we’ll see when I get to the LA shows what the difference is. At some point it starts to move pretty fast, so just be ready! Stream their songs in the meantime to get familiar with the act you’re going to see. You won’t regret it!

Ticket Prices:

The price range is what everyone has been avoiding. So, Ticketmaster did say it will be in the range of $90-$800.95. For people who did not get the presale, this range will stay the same so don’t worry too much! These are the set prices and will not change allegedly. I am kind of happy with the cut off, but I’ve seen prices lower, but these are in demand, so I guess it’ll be worth it. Especially with the stage set up. And usually, BTS adds a lot of screens in their show so everyone can watch.

Packages:

So BTS will also have VIP packages. This was just disclosed today. So that was fun to know I will have to jump through hoops to get to that one. Wish us luck! There will also be a soundcheck package for public sell on the 24th so fear not!

Results?

By the time I got on at around 12:08 the tickets for both Standford shows were sold out. I didn’t wait to see if they would release more because I wanted to give the people who really want to go a chance to grab them since I was just curious on what the queue would be like. And so I can report to you if you wanted to try for another show. I have a couple of hours to prepare and I will be back to you.

And once again please don’t worry! There will be lots of opportunities to see these living legends in action! With their new album coming out this spring, we will see them a lot! Be prepared to be sick of us! 😉

Attempt 2: Las Vegas, Nevada

Ticket Prices

For Vegas, it was $89.20-$789.

Mini Rant:

I do find it a tad bit unfair and a bit irritating that everyone who bought ARMY membership isn’t almost promised a ticket. The fact that it says “limited ticket availability”…um that means there’s more tickets! Release some more! Instead, they suggest the general public and soundcheck VIP packages. Which is a little annoying, but I understand. And it’s important to give everyone a chance, but I do think you should at least be able to get one ticket or what was the point of getting the membership? I mean except for obviously enjoying Weverse. And unfortunately, some ARMY got the membership but didn’t do the sign-up portion and can’t access the pre-sale. And also, let’s not forget about the suites and also the stadium tickets. Cause, come on. I mean I understand loyalty goes a long way and it’s deserving, but it really shows fans don’t come first. Cause sports and music can go hand and hand, but most times…they aren’t the same audience. And it just reminds me of the discourse going around when it was the platinum benefits were purchasing with another artists membership pre-sale. Do the fans come first? No, but Capitalism so I understand. However, it is frustrating you get those memberships to support your artist and have a fighting chance to see them live. Which is very important.

In the meantime, tell us about how your ticketing experience has been in the comments! Also, some tips along the way for those trying to go this concert season!
