Come December, Singapore is set to turn into a city-wide celebration of BTS THE CITY, with drone shows, fireworks displays, fan villages, exclusive merchandise pop-ups and iconic landmarks illuminated in Ari Red[1]. Singapore Tourism Board (STB) and HYBE today unveiled the full programme for ‘BTS THE CITY ARIRANG SINGAPORE’, featuring an expanded line-up of exclusive experiences across 10 venue partners from 1 to 31 December 2026. With Visa as an official partner, the month-long event will offer both local and international BTS fans and visitors more opportunities to celebrate and connect with BTS THE CITY through unique experiences across Singapore.
The city-wide activation marks the first and only Southeast Asian stop of ‘BTS THE CITY ARIRANG’ in 2026. Spanning multiple locations across Singapore and building up to BTS’ four sold-out nights at the National Stadium this December, the full programme reflects the scale and ambition of this landmark event.
As official partner of ‘BTS THE CITY ARIRANG SINGAPORE’, Visa will work with participating partners to offer a range of privileges for Visa cardholders, including special offers and pre-sale opportunities. The Visa partnership will also extend the experience beyond the concert, helping local and international fans and visitors discover more of Singapore through ‘BTS THE CITY ARIRANG’ experiences that connect their passion for music with what the city has to offer.
Mr Oliver Chong, Assistant Chief Executive, International Group, STB, said, “Together with HYBE, Visa and venue partners, we are excited to bring a rich line-up of immersive experiences and activities to ‘BTS THE CITY ARIRANG SINGAPORE’. We warmly invite fans and visitors from around the world to visit Singapore this year-end to experience for themselves the diverse range of activations that we will have across the city.”
“For a new generation of consumers, music is a powerful reason to connect, travel and discover. In June this year, Visa announced our role as Worldwide Tour Sponsor of ‘BTS World Tour ‘Arirang’. Our partnership with ‘BTS THE CITY ARIRANG SINGAPORE’ takes that commitment beyond the concert, bringing fans and visitors closer to the music they love and the experiences that make Singapore distinctive. Leveraging on Visa Destinations Singapore, we are bringing partners together to create incredible experiences for our cardholders, turning their passion for music into a richer experience of the city,” said Adeline Kim, Group Country Manager, Regional Southeast Asia & SVP, Global Clients, Asia Pacific, Visa.
‘BTS THE CITY ARIRANG SINGAPORE’ will take over some of Singapore’s most iconic tourism and lifestyle destinations, welcoming local and international fans and visitors alike. Spanning 10 venue partners — Gardens by the Bay, Jewel Changi Airport, Mandai Wildlife Reserve, National Gallery Singapore, National Museum of Singapore, New Bahru, Resorts World Sentosa, Sentosa Development Corporation, The Kallang, and Zouk Singapore — the programme will bring the BTS THE CITY experience to different parts of Singapore, inviting fans and visitors to discover the city’s diverse attractions, cultural landmarks and lifestyle destinations.
Landmarks around Marina Bay, the bridges along the Singapore River and the Merlion will also be lighting up every night from 8 to 22 December in Ari Red as part of the Singapore ARIRANG Light Up[2].
