HYBE CINE FEST expands to over 60 territories with two live BTS broadcasts and concert films from SEVENTEEN, TOMORROW X TOGETHER, and ENHYPEN
HYBE and Trafalgar Releasing will take HYBE CINE FEST 2026 to more than 60 territories from 24–31 October, expanding on earlier editions in Latin America and Asia. The festival matters because it brings live BTS broadcasts, major K-pop concert films and interactive cinema experiences to a global audience.
The six-title programme includes BTS broadcasts from Buenos Aires and São Paulo, plus concert films featuring SEVENTEEN, TOMORROW X TOGETHER and ENHYPEN, and a 3D HYBE Cheering Party featuring artists across the label. Tickets go on sale internationally on 30 September, while special cinema locations with photo zones, merchandise and interactive features will expand to North America and Europe; the event follows BTS cinema broadcasts that have generated major worldwide audiences and comes as HYBE’s concert revenue surged 243.3% year-on-year to KRW 647.7 billion in the second quarter of 2026.
In short
- HYBE’s cinema festival will reach over 60 territories.
- Two live BTS broadcasts headline the 24–31 October programme.
- Concert films and 3D fan experiences feature multiple HYBE artists.
Explained simply
HYBE is a South Korean entertainment company whose artists include BTS, SEVENTEEN, TOMORROW X TOGETHER and ENHYPEN. K-pop concerts and music releases reach audiences around the world, and cinema screenings let fans watch performances together in local venues.
Trafalgar Releasing works with music companies to bring concert events to cinemas. HYBE CINE FEST builds on earlier editions in Latin America and Asia, combining concert films and broadcasts with activities such as photo areas and merchandise displays.
The festival’s expansion comes as cinema screenings have drawn large audiences for BTS and HYBE has reported rising concert revenue. Its reach matters because cinemas offer another way for international fans to experience performances beyond attending a concert in person.
