Overview

  • Newly added dates are Oct. 8 and 10, Nov. 5 and 7, and Jan. 28 and 30, 2027, expanding the run to 14 shows.
  • Legacy and Fifth Member codes are valid for today’s presale, and broader ticket sales begin Friday via Ticketmaster.
  • Each Thursday/Saturday pairing follows the band’s No Repeat Weekend format with completely different setlists.
  • The production is designed for Sphere’s immersive tech, featuring a 16K wraparound LED display, HOLOPLOT-powered Sphere Immersive Sound and multi-sensory 4D effects.
  • Tickets include single-night, two-night packages, enhanced experiences and travel bundles, with reporting noting steep face values and inflated secondary-market prices.
