Under the globe-trotting concert tour, BTS staged 20 performances in 10 cities in North and South America, Europe, Japan, Saudi Arabia and finally in South Korea through May to October. 

Through the tour, BTS sold a total of 976,283 tickets, averaging 48,814 ticket sales worth $5.8 million per concert, according to figures from Billboard Boxscore posted on the official Billboard website.

From the final four concerts at King Fahd International Stadium in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and Olympic Stadium in southern Seoul, BTS clinched $16.49 million sales, according to the data.

The result put BTS in second place on the Billboard "Hot Tours" chart, dated Nov. 16, following Elton John.
