BTS will bring the Kaohsiung and Jakarta stops of their “ARIRANG” world tour to cinemas worldwide, giving fans unable to attend in person a chance to experience the shows on the big screen with cinema sound systems.

According to BIGHIT MUSIC, BTS announced the schedule for “BTS WORLD TOUR ‘ARIRANG’ IN KAOHSIUNG, JAKARTA: LIVE VIEWING” on the global fan platform Weverse on November 2. The screenings will feature the second Kaohsiung concert in Taiwan on November 21 and the third Jakarta concert in Indonesia on December 29.

The live viewings will take place in more than 80 countries and regions, with the Kaohsiung show screening on approximately 3,300 screens and the Jakarta show on around 2,800. In South Korea, fans can watch at the three major multiplex chains: CGV, Lotte Cinema and Megabox.

Depending on local time zones, concerts will either be broadcast live or shown as delayed screenings within one to two days of the performance, connecting the stadium shows with movie theaters around the world.

Tickets go on sale November 5, with South Korean bookings opening at 10 a.m. and global bookings at 10 p.m. that day.
