Live-streamed gigs have become the norm for many artists during the lockdown, but this weekend, one of the biggest groups in the world is going virtual.
K-Pop icons BTS will launch Bang Bang Con The Live, giving fans around the world the chance to watch the septet performing live from the comfort of their own homes.
It comes after the group were forced to abandon their world tour — including two nights at Twickenham Stadium in London — in the face of the pandemic.
Here’s everything you need to know about the live-streamed show.
When is Bang Bang Con The Live?
The stream will begin at 10am BST on Sunday June 14, although anyone who buys a ticket will be able to watch the performance on demand for an unlimited time afterwards.
How to watch Bang Bang Con The Live
Tickets can be bought via the Weverse app. They’re currently priced at $26.09 (£20.46), although members of the Global Official Fanclub Army can get a discount on that. Once a ticket has been bought, a link will be sent to give fans access to the stream.
What will the stream involve?
The band are remaining tight-lipped over what the performance will actually entail, although we do know a little bit about the viewer experience.
The stream will be filmed from six different angles, and viewers will be able to switch, add and subtract screens as they please. There will also be regional live chats running alongside the show, meaning fans can react together — almost as if they were at a real gig.
