The **BTS** World Tour [**ARIRANG**] Goyang concert took place from April 9 to April 12, 2026, at **Goyang Stadium** (고양종합운동장 주경기장). While the concert has concluded, analyzing the transport operations and bottlenecks is highly valuable for visitors planning their journeys to upcoming massive events at this stadium. During the concert days, roads surrounding the stadium experienced severe gridlock due to charter buses and private vehicles. Subway Line 3 **Daehwa Station** (대화역) also reached its maximum capacity. This record is based on official transport logs and actual traffic feedback from the event days. --- ## Concert Schedule and Ticketing Summary The following is a summary of the event details as they occurred in April 2026. * **Event Name:** BTS WORLD TOUR 'ARIRANG' IN GOYANG * **Dates:** April 9 (Thu) 19:00 / April 11 (Sat) 19:00 / April 12 (Sun) 19:00, 2026 (3 shows) * **Venue:** Goyang Stadium Main Stadium (Outdoor Stage) * **Status:** Completed (Concert ended) * **Official Ticket Vendor:** Interpark Ticket BTS WORLD TOUR 'ARIRANG' IN GOYANG Official Poster --- ## Transit Travel Times from Major Hubs During the BTS Goyang Stadium concert, the travel times and routing options from major entry hubs to the main stadium were recorded as follows: | Origin | Public Transit Route | Est.

Walking to nearby bus stops south of the stadium and riding a bus to neighboring subway lines was often faster than waiting at Daehwa Station. * **On-site Parking Bans:** No general parking was allowed within the stadium. Visitors who drove private vehicles parked at remote lots near Daegok Station or KINTEX and took Subway Line 3 to the venue. --- ## Useful Links for Your Visit * [Goyang Stadium Venue Guide](/en/venues/goyang-stadium/) * [Seat Distance Simulator — how far the stage looks from your seat](/en/seat-view/) * [How to Get from Seoul Station to Goyang Stadium](/en/guides/seoul-station-to-goyang-stadium/) * [How to Get from Incheon Airport to Goyang Stadium](/en/guides/incheon-airport-to-goyang-stadium/) * [How to Avoid Daehwa Station Overcrowding After Shows](/en/guides/goyang-stadium-avoid-daehwa-crowds/) --- ## Sources and Verification Date * **Event Information:** Sourced from the official Interpark Ticket event ticketing announcement page. * **Transit Performance:** Checked against official subway timetables from Korail and Seoul Metro, combined with real-time crowd safety notifications from Goyang City.
