The BIGBANG Hong Kong ticket race started before tickets actually went on sale.

YG Entertainment’s September 2 notice confirms three concerts at Kai Tak Stadium on November 13, 14 and 15, 2026. For V.I.P Membership holders, however, the first deadline was September 8: completing the official survey was required for the September 14 fan presale.

That created three separate checkpoints—survey, presale and general sale. As of September 21, 2026, all three scheduled dates have passed; check HK Ticketing for current booking options. This guide does not confirm live ticket availability.

Hong Kong Gets Three Nights, Not One

The XX : COSMOS world tour will stop at Kai Tak Stadium for three consecutive nights:

  • Friday, November 13 — 7 p.m.
  • Saturday, November 14 — 6 p.m.
  • Sunday, November 15 — 6 p.m.

The different Friday start time is easy to miss when scanning a tour poster. Confirm the date before paying rather than assuming every show begins at 6 p.m.

Both BIGBANG’s official tour page and the Hong Kong Tourism Board list the same three dates and venue. The tourism board identifies YG Entertainment as the organizer, providing a second institutional confirmation outside the ticket notice.

The Membership Survey Was the First Deadline

The fan presale was not automatic. Eligible BIGBANG V.I.P Membership holders had to complete the Hong Kong survey by 11:59 p.m. local time on September 8.

The form asked for the six-character Membership Code shown under My Page → My Membership → View Membership Details. YG specifically told applicants to type the code directly instead of copying it from a screenshot, reducing the chance of an image-reading error.

Incorrect information could remove an applicant from verification. That included a code with the wrong number of characters or personal details entered in a language other than English, according to the official instructions.

Presale Was One Long Day—But Still One Window

The V.I.P Membership presale window was 11 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. on September 14, Hong Kong time. Buyers could purchase up to two tickets per performance during this window.

The six-character Membership Code doubled as the presale code. YG also said buyers needed to sign in to the ticketing site before entering that code, so creating the account after the queue opened added an avoidable step.

The presale allocation was limited. A long sales window did not mean the same seats remained available all day.

General Sale Opened September 17

General ticket reservations opened at 12 p.m. local time on Thursday, September 17 through HK Ticketing. You do not need BIGBANG V.I.P Membership for this sale.

The September 2 YG notice does not publish seat prices or a seating chart. Treat prices circulating through reposts as unconfirmed until the official ticketing page displays them. The same rule applies to any additional partner presales not included in YG’s notice: check the organizer or ticket platform before relying on a screenshot.

A Five-Minute Setup Before Booking

The useful preparation is administrative, not magical:

  1. Check that you are on the official HK Ticketing domain.
  2. Create or test your ticketing account before attempting a purchase.
  3. Remember that the September 8 survey deadline and September 14 fan presale have passed.
  4. Check current booking options on the official ticketing page.
  5. Choose the November 13, 14 or 15 performance deliberately.
  6. Keep payment details ready and read the final purchase terms.

Screenshots of queue positions, resale offers and “guaranteed” buying services do not override the official rules. YG’s notice says the presale is first-come, first-served and capped at two tickets per show; it does not endorse third-party shortcuts.

The Date That Matters Right Now

General sale opened on September 17. For V.I.P Membership holders, September 8 was the first deadline, followed by the September 14 presale.

That is the distinction worth remembering: the survey was registration, September 14 was the member sale, and September 17 was the public-sale opening. Three nights at Kai Tak Stadium are confirmed; check the official ticketing page for current prices and availability.
