BTS drew more than 140,000 fans to M&T Bank Stadium over two sold-out nights last month, setting an attendance record for the Baltimore venue, Maryland Stadium Authority officials confirmed Tuesday.

The Aug. 10 and 11 concerts by the South Korean pop group attracted about 70,000 fans each night, making the shows the largest two-day attendance in the stadium’s history.

The concerts marked BTS’ first performances in Baltimore and the first K-pop shows at M&T Bank Stadium. They were part of the group’s 2026-27 Arirang World Tour, its first full-group tour since 2019.

Vernon J. Conaway Jr., the stadium authority’s vice president for public safety and security, said the concerts were part of a busy August at the stadium complex but resulted in no significant safety or security incidents.
