BTS, the award-winning and renowned South Korean group, recently announced their tour dates for this year as part of the Map of the Soul Tour. In a post on Twitter, BigHit Entertainment detailed the countries and cities BTS will be performing in.
London is one of the cities BTS will be performing in. They will be in London at the Twickenham Stadium on the third and fourth of July, according to BigHit Entertainment’s tweet.
Twickenham Stadium has a capacity of 82,000 fans, according to the Stadium’s own official website.
This isn’t the first time that the K-POP superstars will be performing in London. Last year, the seven member group performed in Wembley Stadium and in 2018 they performed at the O2 Arena.
In 2019, BTS also won the Wembley ‘Moment of the Year’ because of their outstanding and stunning performance.
This year’s tour to London is expected to be even bigger and better than the previous ones due to the group’s growing popularity and their outstanding music.
