BTS will launch the urban project "The City" in Las Vegas, USA, according to BigHit Music on May 8.

From May 20 to 31 (local time), BTS will host "The City Las Vegas," transforming the entire city into a festival space in connection with their BTS World Tour "Arirang in Las Vegas" concerts.

Las Vegas is where "The City" project first began in 2022. BigHit Music stated, "This project turns concert host cities into immersive music experience venues and presents a new model for fan engagement. This year's project is especially meaningful as it targets the heart of the U.S. cultural industry once again."

This event is different in nature from the project held in Seoul this past March and April. While the Seoul event focused on everyday public art experiences, the Las Vegas edition expands in scale by leveraging the city's spectacular infrastructure. By combining world-renowned attractions and entertainment facilities, it offers experiences unique to the local area.

On the opening day of the performances, May 23, the Strip, a famous tourist district, will serve as a stage to welcome BTS. The signature red lighting of the new album "Arirang" will illuminate the streets, and welcome messages will appear on electronic billboards. On the same day, a fireworks show will be held at the MGM Grand Hotel. "BTS Pop-up: Arirang" will run from May 21 to 28 at The Forum Shops at Caesars Palace. Additional events such as monorail wrapping, exhibitions, and after-parties are also planned.
