Following an almost four-year break, the K-pop sensation BTS is poised for a significant return in 2026. The band has already announced that they are in the process of creating a new album, which is expected to be released in March of the coming year, with a subsequent world tour to follow.
In a live session on Weverse on December 27, BTS's V suggested that India could be included in their concert tour. He replied to a fan's greeting with a brief message, saying, 'Namaste, Indian ARMYs. See you next year.'
V's remark ignited fan speculation that the group's much-anticipated India tour could finally happen next year. Although the singer did not specifically announce tour dates or locations, fans interpreted his message as a significant indication that the group might soon perform in the country.
The remark was made as BTS prepares for a significant return in March 2026 following an extended break. Since finishing their military duties in June 2025, the group has been occupied with individual endeavors. Now that all seven members are back together, they are focusing on creating new music, with arrangements underway for a major comeback.
Bloomberg reports that South Korean entertainment powerhouse HYBE is set to organize BTS's "most extensive tour to date" after their 2026 album release. The tour is anticipated to begin in the spring of 2026, featuring approximately 60 to 65 performances globally. North America is expected to be a primary focus, with several shows planned in Europe as well.
At the same time, Indian fans are keenly anticipating an official announcement regarding the BTS concert in their country. India has emerged as a favorable location for international concerts, especially after successful performances by artists such as Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, Dua Lipa, and others.
