HOW TO GET TICKETS

Chances are best if you are a member of the Japanese fan club (for which you usually need to be a resident in Japan, with an address and phone number.

Learn how the Japanese ticketing system works, starting with the basics here.

Resale platforms such as Viagogo can be useful, but note that there have been random ID checks at BTS concerts in Japan, before. Thus, we wouldn’t recommend it, unless you trust your lucky stars.
