BTS is heading back to the United States, this time for one of the biggest music events in Las Vegas.
The seven-member group departed South Korea on September 17 for scheduled activities in the U.S., ahead of their highly anticipated appearance at the 2026 iHeartRadio Music Festival.
BTS is set to perform on Friday, September 18, the opening night of the two-day festival at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. They will share the Friday lineup with Cardi B, Goo Goo Dolls, Kenny Chesney, Weezer and Zara Larsson. The festival continues September 19 with another roster of major artists.
Fans outside Las Vegas will also have a chance to catch BTS' performance. The festival's live broadcast begins at 7:30 p.m. Pacific Time, with performances available through iHeartRadio stations across the United States. Disney+ and Hulu will also livestream the festival.
BTS will have an additional presence outside the main stage through the iHeartRadio House of Music, where an interactive room inspired by the group's song “SWIM” from their latest album ARIRANG will be open to fans. The experience runs outside T-Mobile Arena on September 18 and 19.
The Las Vegas appearance comes shortly after BTS completed the North American leg of their ARIRANG World Tour, keeping the group in the spotlight as they continue their 2026 global activities.
