BTS has officially turned 13! To kick off their annual “Festa” celebration—a yearly tradition honoring the group’s debut—the global icons have unveiled a brand-new collection of commemorative family portraits.
The photos, released early Thursday morning in South Korea, capture RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V, and Jung Kook in a relaxed, business-casual aesthetic. Whether they are soaking up the sun on a lush lawn, lounging together on a sofa, or sharing a candid moment on a staircase, the septet radiates their signature charm.
Beyond the stills, the group also shared a lighthearted behind-the-scenes video. The footage captures the members laughing and joking between takes, offering fans an intimate look at the group’s enduring chemistry.
These portraits serve as the opening act for a packed Festa itinerary, which was teased late last month. Fans can look forward to a performance video for their ARIRANG single “Hooligan” arriving this Friday, June 5, along with several other surprise projects.
The 13th-anniversary festivities will culminate in a two-night concert series in Busan on June 12 and 13. For those unable to attend in person, the final show will be broadcast in theaters globally.
Festa 2026 holds particular significance as the first anniversary celebration since the group’s highly successful comeback earlier this year. With a chart-topping album, ARIRANG, and a massive world tour currently underway, the band is celebrating this milestone with renewed energy. While the members have previously spent their anniversary months fulfilling mandatory military service duties, this year feels like a true homecoming for the group and their dedicated fanbase.
