BTS Returns From Hiatus at Las Vegas Festival

BTS headlined the first night of the 2026 iHeartRadio Music Festival at Las Vegas’ T-Mobile Arena on September 18, delivering a high-energy set centered on songs from their latest album, ARIRANG. The group opened with “SWIM,” followed with “2.0” and “MIC Drop,” and closed with “FYA” amid flames and a highly enthusiastic crowd. Their appearance marked a major U.S. performance following the group’s return from a years-long hiatus and the North American leg of their ARIRANG World Tour. The two-day festival also featured artists including Cardi B, Benson Boone, Ciara, Kenny Chesney, Muse, Snoop Dogg, Weezer and Zara Larsson. Performances are being broadcast through iHeartMedia radio stations nationwide and livestreamed for Disney+ and Hulu subscribers, though availability may vary internationally.
