How Did BTS Break the SoFi Stadium Record?

BTS closed the North American leg with four sold-out shows in Los Angeles. Those nights drew 282,000 fans.

BTS also played four SoFi shows in 2021. Add them up and that's eight shows, more than any other act, and about 496,000 fans.

The 2021 run is about 214,000 of that total. It's the one most search results still show.

What Do the Latest BTS Boxscore Numbers Say?

There is no official 2026 SoFi dollar gross yet. The $33.3 million figure you'll see online is from the 2021 run, when BTS sold over 200,000 tickets. 

Here's what we can back up for the 2026 tour:

• North America: 31 sold-out shows at 12 stops in the US, Canada and Mexico, about 1.9 million fans.
• Start: April 25 in Tampa.
• Las Vegas: 246,000 fans and about $49.5 million over four shows in May, per Billboard's stadium tally as relayed by Edaily.
• Tour so far: about $433.2 million and 2.3 million tickets across 38 reported shows, per Latin Times citing Billboard Boxscore.

A few things stand out. Vegas and LA both ran four nights. The tour has played to millions in under a year of shows. 

What Will BTS Play in São Paulo?

No official São Paulo setlist has been released. These are just guesses, based on what Brazilian outlets project.

Our best guess is songs from the Goyang opener. Think "Hooligan", "Aliens", "Run BTS", "They Don't Know 'Bout Us" and "Like Animals".

We'd also expect older hits like "Dynamite", "Butter", "Fire" and "I Need U". Nothing here is confirmed.

What's Next for BTS After the SoFi Record?

The record caps a huge North American run. The tour still has São Paulo to go, and the October 30 cinema stream gives fans without tickets a seat.
