BTS’ J-Hope will embark on his first-ever solo tour of North American and Asia this spring. The 30-year-old rapper will travel to 15 cities, including six stops in North America, for the “Hope on the Stage Tour”.

Following a three-day run in Seoul, J-Hope, the 12-date U.S. tour will kick off on Thursday, March 13th with back-to-back shows at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, with multiple nights in Chicago, Mexico City, San Antonio, and Oakland, before concluding in Los Angeles with his first headline stadium performances at BMO Stadium on Friday, April 4th and Sunday, April 6th.

After the announcement was made on fan platform Weverse, it noted the current devastation caused by wildfires in California, saying, “Due to the large-scale wildfires in California, USA, and their resulting impact on the region, the detailed notice for the North American tour will be announced at a later date. We kindly ask for your understanding.”
