BTS Completely Sell Out All 14 North American Concerts In 3 Days

Although it might not come as a shock to most, BTS‘s “LOVE YOURSELF” World Tour concerts in North America sold out completely in less than three days!

There were 14 shows scheduled in Newark, Chicago, Los Angeles, Forth Worth and Oakland in the US and Hamilton in Canada.

An extra show in Los Angeles was added after the initial tour schedule was released, but they are also anticipated to sell out quickly.

Tickets for LA's 4th show go on-sale TODAY at 4PM PDT on https://t.co/6ZvoCUyuJO and https://t.co/KSXZS0Spej! pic.twitter.com/MZlggpjHSn

Tickets are already being resold online for more than USD $1,000, but the promoters have issued a statement assuring A.R.M.Ys they’ll be taking extra measures to ensure scalped tickets get cancelled.

We cannot disclose the precise method we are using to detect scalpers, but rest assured, legitimate purchases will not be affected. Please do not be concerned if you are not partaking in scalping activities. We are doing our best to address many fans' concerns! Thank you!

But fans are worried about whether they’ll be considered a scalper if buying multiple tickets, or if their tickets will be taken away if they bought them from a re-seller.

Will verified resale tickets from ticketmaster be affected by this? I already bought my ticket and i dont want them to be cancelled because of someone else ://

What are evidenced of ticket scalping though? How are you able to distinguish from one person trying to just get multiple tickets from their friends? I genuinely would like to know just in case a fan is falsely flagged as a scalper. Let us know, thank you!

For example, some fans look for tickets on multiple devices. Could this possibly lead or be considered ‘scalping’ behavior? It would be good to let us know before fans engage in any behavior that could result in being thought of as a scalper

There’s no point in doing anything about this anymore because a lot of fans already bought tickets that were resold for higher prices
If everything was set up a little better instead of having everything done last minute like always,then this wouldn’t have happened again

A large portion of tickets are still held by scalpers. And the resale value on official sites like Ticketmaster is outrageous. Very disappointed because the tickets are there but they are unaffordable for normal fans

A.R.M.Ys are advising everyone to do their research and only buy from verified re-sellers or from the promoter’s own website and affiliates.
