¿Chile Sin BTS?: Autoridades Locales No Autorizan Uso Del Estadio Nacional Para Sus Shows en Octubre
Officials said the proposed 360-degree stage would disrupt the grass pitch, and the promoter has not said whether the sold-out shows will move.
- On Thursday, the Instituto Nacional de Deportes denied the Estadio Nacional Julio Martínez Prádanos as the venue for three BTS concerts scheduled for October 14, 16, and 17 in Santiago.
- The IND cited the need to protect the field for institutional commitments, including a Chilean national team match, professional soccer games, and Teletón 2026, noting the stadium's limited recovery capacity for prolonged surface coverage.
- Tickets for all three shows reportedly sold out after going on sale in April, with each concert expected to draw more than 48,000 fans, surprising attendees who held numbered seats.
- Authorities offered the park's south esplanade as an alternative, but BTS fan club president Carolina Aballay rejected it, demanding the original 360-degree stage and equipment for the sold-out crowds.
- The IND stated the decision is not a rejection of massive events but reflects efforts to protect the Coliseo Central's integrity and fulfill international sports homologation requirements previously assumed.
