BTS V’s dedicated US fanbase is making the group’s El Paso concert an unforgettable event. His official US fan club, ‘Tae Crew U.S.’, proudly announced the dedication of a special seat bearing V’s name at the iconic Plaza Theatre in El Paso, Texas. This thoughtful gesture commemorates BTS’s concerts held in the city on May 2nd and 3rd (local time).
Explaining their initiative, the fans shared, “We are proud to dedicate a seat for Taehyung [V’s real name] at the Plaza Theatre, a true landmark of El Paso. This serves as an enduring tribute, celebrating his artistry, his profound influence, and the unwavering love of his dedicated fans.”
The Plaza Theatre itself is a significant El Paso landmark, originally built in 1930. Beyond hosting acclaimed Broadway musical performances, it also annually presents a classic film festival. The theater holds further prestige as it is listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), the official US federal government list of sites, buildings, structures, and objects deemed worthy of preservation.
Local El Paso news outlets, including ‘ARC El Paso’ and ‘KFOX14’, widely reported on this unique fan project, highlighting the special seat dedicated to BTS V at the historic Plaza Theatre.
This El Paso tribute is part of a larger series of celebratory projects undertaken by V’s US fans in various cities hosting BTS concerts across the United States. Previously, they prepared a memorable gift in Tampa, Florida, where a BTS concert was held. In Joseph Fryer Park, a commemorative stone engraved with V’s name was installed along the running trail, marking another significant fan contribution.
El Paso itself has fully embraced the festive spirit surrounding BTS’s visit. The city bestowed a special ‘Estimado Amigo’ (Dear Friend) award upon BTS and officially proclaimed May 2nd and 3rd as ‘El Paso BTS Weekend.’ In a testament to their devotion, local El Paso fans also initiated fundraising efforts to illuminate the city’s iconic ‘Star on the Mountain’ in purple, BTS’s signature color, as a warm welcome for the group.
