The events will take place in Nevada from May 20-31 and in South Korea from June 5-21.

BTS are setting up another pair of citywide festivals in Nevada and South Korea to celebrate their comeback album, ARIRANG. On Monday morning (April 20), the K-pop supergroup announced the dates for “BTS The City ARIRANG Las Vegas” and “BTS The City ARIRANG Busan” as an expansion of their urban concert playground event bringing their fan experience beyond the concert venue with citywide attractions and immersive events. According to a statement, the two pop-ups will “combine the music and story of BTS’s fifth studio album ARIRANG with each city’s iconic landmarks.”

“The City Las Vegas” will take place from May 20-31 in Las Vegas, Nevada, while “The City Busan” will set up shop from June 5-21. The U.S. dates will coincide with the band’s upcoming run of shows at Allegiant Stadium in Paradise, Nevada on May 23, 24, 27 and 28.
