BTS, the global K-pop sensation, will embark on its inaugural concert tour in Peru beginning Wednesday, as Lima prepares a week-long celebration with BTS Avenue and purple-lit landmarks. The septet will take the stage at Estadio San Marcos in Lima on Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday as part of their Arirang world tour, marking their return to South America after a six-year absence since their 2013 debut.
The city's Santiago de Surco district will temporarily rename Sacramento Street as BTS Avenue from October 5-11, with signs adorning the street. Arco Morisco, a landmark in Friendship Park, will be bathed in the group's signature purple hue, with daily light shows throughout the week. Additionally, the Fountain of Fantasy at Lima's Fountain Park will feature a BTS-themed light and water show during the same period.
BTS kicked off their South American tour with two-day performances at Estadio Nemesio Camacho El Campin in Bogota last weekend, drawing in approximately 100,000 fans.
