BTS Draws 190,000 Fans Over Three Days in Tampa for 'Arirang' World Tour
North American leg features 31 sold-out shows across 12 cities including El Paso, Mexico City and Las Vegas
SEOUL, April 29 (Yonhap) -- K-pop supergroup BTS drew about 190,000 fans over three days as it kicked off the North American leg of its "Arirang" world tour in Tampa, Florida, the group's agency said Wednesday. The group performed at Raymond James Stadium on Saturday, Sunday and Tuesday (local time) as part of the North American leg, delivering tracks from its latest studio album, "Arirang," and past hits, such as "MIC Drop" and "Fake Love," BigHit Music said. BTS began the world tour with three-night concerts in the South Korean city of Goyang earlier this month. The tour spans a total of 85 shows across 34 cities, making it the largest tour ever undertaken by a K-pop artist. After Tampa, the seven-member group will continue the tour on May 2โ3 at Sun Bowl Stadium in El Paso, Texas, becoming the first Korean act to hold a concert at the venue. The North American leg involves 31 shows across 12 cities, including Mexico City, Stanford and Las Vegas, with all dates sold out, according to the agency.
