Scoring tickets to a BTS concert is hard enough, but ARMYs can rejoice as Permission to Dance on Stage LA dropped Thursday, September 8 around the world for streaming on Disney+.
Following a sold-out four-night run at Los Angeles’ SoFi Stadium last November and December, and a second leg of the mini-tour with Permission to Dance on Stage – Seoul, the concert film was a surprise drop amongst the many new additions to the streamer for Disney+ Day.
This isn’t too surprising, though, as the BTS members had recently signed on to three projects for Disney+ to come out of a new partnership between the streamer and BTS’ parent company, Hybe. Besides Permission to Dance on Stage LA, another project In the Soop: Friendcation (featuring BTS’ V and several of his friends from the entertainment industry) dropped in July, and a documentary series BTS Monuments: Beyond the Star is expected to premiere in 2023.
But if you couldn’t make it in-person (or catch a flight in time) to either of the Permission to Dance live concert runs, luckily, you have some options. Read on to find out how to stream Permission to Danceon Stage LA online.
Permission to Dance on Stage LA: Release Date, Run time
Permission to Dance on StageLA is finally available to watch on Disney+ after the four concerts took place in Los Angeles over November 27-28, and December 1-2 of 2021. The concert film has a total runtime of two hours and ten minutes, and features both on-stage performances and never-before-seen, behind-the-scenes footage.
The concert includes performances of several of BTS’ stateside smash hits like “Dynamite,” “Butter” and “Permission to Dance,” among others. During the special you’ll also see the first live concert performances of songs that dropped before or during the pandemic, like “ON,” “Dis-ease,” and “Black Swan”.
After cancelling their 2020 Map of the Soul world tour due to COVID-19, these were the group’s first performances in front of a live audience since 2019. The Permission to Dance on Stage LA concert film comes on the heels of the group taking a hiatus on group activities to focus on various solo projects.
