BTS’s J-Hope is making a triumphant return to the stage after completing his mandatory military service, and it’s clear that he’s ready to make up for lost time. The rapper and producer has announced his first-ever solo tour, Hope On The Stage, set to take place in 2025. The tour will include several major cities across the globe, offering fans a chance to see the beloved BTS member in action outside of his group’s iconic collaborations.
J-Hope, who was discharged from military service in October, wasted no time in diving back into his music career. After teasing new material for months, he’s now gearing up for a tour that includes stops in both Asia and North America. The 2025 leg of the Hope On The Stage tour will open with a highly anticipated three-night stint at Seoul’s KSPO Dome in late February, before crossing the globe to Brooklyn, Chicago, Mexico City, San Antonio, Oakland, and Los Angeles, with two-show stops in most cities.
Although tickets for the U.S. dates have yet to be released, the announcement of these shows has already set BTS fans into a frenzy. The tour marks a significant moment for J-Hope, as it’s his first solo tour after establishing himself as a versatile artist within BTS and as a solo performer with 2022’s Jack In The Box album. In addition to the tour, J-Hope has also teased new music, with a video hinting at a release in March 2025, which is likely to coincide with the tour’s North American leg.
Fans can expect a mix of J-Hope’s solo tracks and, of course, BTS hits, with the charismatic rapper bringing his trademark energy and creative flair to each performance. The Hope On The Stage tour isn’t just a celebration of his post-military return; it’s also a statement that J-Hope is prepared to continue redefining himself as an artist on his own terms.
Whether you’re in Asia, North America, or beyond, J-Hope’s Hope On The Stage tour promises to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience for ARMY and new fans alike.
