Earlier this month, Las Vegas found itself painted in a new color. A bright shade of purple took over the famous Las Vegas Strip, as global superstars, BTS, took over.
The seven-member K-Pop group played four sold out shows at Allegiant Stadium, leading to their fanbase, ARMY, flying from across the world and taking over Las Vegas. Their concert, Permission To Dance On Stage, not only had a live in-person audience, but was also streamed for fans at the MGM Grand Garden Arena (and to very little surprise, those viewings also sold out).
Of course, not every fan is able to attend these events in person. However, that rarely ever stops ARMY.
From posting live updates, to watching the last concert via a livestream, ARMYs worldwide took to the internet. Between sharing their thoughts, their many memes, and favorite moments from the shows online, Twitter became a haven for all who cared to enjoy these concerts, one way or another.
So, without further ado, here are a few tweets that perfectly capture all the excitement and magic that happened on and off stage at Permission To Dance On Stage.
1. When the screens temporarily broke during Night 1 and ARMY reacted the way they know best: with memes.
2. How beautiful the venue was during “Dynamite” thanks to the thousands of lightsticks (also known as the “ARMY Bomb”).
3. V running through the streamers only to show his runway skills after.
4. This video (provided by J-Hope’s Instagram) of ARMY doing the wave — a tradition that has been happening at BTS’ tours for the past few years.
5. ARMY of all ages dancing together and showing that music has no age restrictions.
6. ARMY gathering together at Mandalay Bay Bridge and keeping the party going.

8. J-Hope dancing with Jin and radiating like the suns that they are.

10. V asking the gentlemen in the stadium to scream, and BTS being floored over how loud the cheers were.
11. V and Jin showing off their dance skills and all-around having fun.
12. Jimin and J-Hope laughing at a sign saying “JK! Let’s have a boxing match,” one of the many interesting signs that fans brought to the concerts.

14. RM addressing the Grammys and haters, leaving us with the iconic line “We didn’t come to Vegas for the Grammys, we came to Vegas for the ARMYs.”
