In my last blog post, I talked all about the essentials for K-pop concerts—how to buy tickets, what to bring, and everything you need to be prepared. If you’ve read that post (and if you haven’t, definitely check it out), you’ll remember that I briefly mentioned Weverse Membership as one of the best ways to get early access to concert tickets. Since then, a lot of you have reached out asking for more details on exactly how to navigate Weverse for tickets, so I figured why not create a more comprehensive guide? If you’re ready to snag those seats like a pro, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know. Let’s get started!

What is Weverse Membership?
Before we jump into the how-to part, let’s talk about what Weverse Membership is. If you’re new to the whole Weverse thing, it’s basically a platform where you can connect with your favorite K-pop artists. Weverse actually started out as a platform by BigHit Entertainment (now HYBE) just for BTS and TXT, giving fans a space to interact directly with them. It was a great way to feel closer to the artists through posts, videos, and exclusive content.
But as HYBE grew and started working with more groups, they expanded Weverse to include other K-pop artists too. Now, even groups outside of HYBE, like BLACKPINK and P1Harmony, are on Weverse, which is pretty awesome!
So, what’s Weverse Membership? It’s a paid subscription that gets you access to all kinds of cool perks—like exclusive content, member-only merch, and the big one: pre-sale access to concert tickets, which is a huge deal if you're trying to beat the rush.
How to Obtain a Weverse Membership
Now, let’s break down how you can actually get your hands on a Weverse Membership. Trust me, it’s super easy, and you’ll thank yourself later when you’re sitting front row at a concert.
Step 1: Download the Weverse App
First things first, you’ll need to download the Weverse app if you haven’t already. You can find it in the App Store for iPhone users or Google Play for Android. Once it’s downloaded, create an account or log in if you’ve already got one. Easy, right?
Step 2: Go to the Weverse Shop
After setting up your account, navigate to the “Shop” section of the app. Here’s where you’ll find all the membership options for different artists. Whether you’re stanning BTS, TXT, or another group, you’ll see all their specific membership options laid out for you.
Step 3: Choose the Right Membership
This part’s pretty important. Not all memberships are the same, so make sure you pick the one that gives you ticket access for your chosen group. Also, make sure you read through the membership details before making a decision. The last thing you want is to pick the wrong one and miss out on those early ticket sales!
Step 4: Make the Purchase
Once you’ve selected the right membership, it’s time to purchase. You can use payment methods like PayPal or your credit card, whichever works best for you. The membership is usually activated right away, but sometimes it may take a bit of time to kick in—so don't panic if it’s not instant.
How to Use Your Weverse Membership for Concert Tickets
Alright, you’ve got your Weverse Membership—now what? Time to use it to get those concert tickets. Here’s how to do it step-by-step.
Step 1: Stay on Top of Announcements
I can’t stress this enough—keep an eye on announcements. Weverse will usually give you a heads-up when tickets are going on sale, so make sure you’re following the artist’s account for updates. I personally set reminders and keep notifications on so I don’t miss anything.
Step 2: Log Into Your Weverse Shop Account
When the ticket sale day arrives, make sure you’re logged into your Weverse Shop account in advance. Double-check that your membership is active—seriously, you don’t want to be scrambling at the last minute trying to figure it out!
Step 3: Access Pre-Sale Tickets
Here’s the moment you’ve been waiting for—pre-sale access. You’ll get a special link or code as a member, and this will allow you to access tickets before the general public. Just follow the instructions, and boom, you’re in! Be quick though, because these tickets can still go fast.
Tips for Getting Concert Tickets
Now, let me give you some pro tips I’ve learned along the way:
- Set Up Alerts: Trust me, you don’t want to miss the ticket sale window. Set reminders on your phone, mark it on your calendar, whatever works. Just make sure you’re ready when it’s time.
- Have Your Payment Ready: You’ll need to act fast when buying tickets, so make sure your payment info is saved and ready to go. This will save you precious time during checkout.
- Log In Early: On ticket sale day, log into your account ahead of time. Don’t wait until the last minute, or you might get stuck in a login queue.
- Check Ticket Details: Some tickets have specific conditions, like limited seating areas or fan verification. Make sure to double-check these details so there are no surprises.
FAQs About Weverse Membership and Tickets
I’ve gotten a few questions from other fans about Weverse Membership, so here are some quick answers:
Does Weverse Membership guarantee a ticket?
No, unfortunately, a Weverse membership does not guarantee you’ll get a ticket. It just gives you early access, so you still need to act fast!
How many tickets can I buy with one membership?
There’s usually a limit of two tickets per Weverse membership code, but make sure to check the specific concert guidelines since it can vary.
Do I need to follow the concert organizer's socials?
Absolutely! Stay updated on the concert organizer’s social media accounts—they often post FAQs and respond to ticket-related queries, which is super helpful.
Can I transfer my membership code to someone else?
It depends! HYBE sometimes switches up the rules, so it’s really important to read the fine print before you try buying or selling tickets using someone else’s membership. For example, during SEVENTEEN’s Be the Sun concert encore in Bulacan, some fans were able to lend their membership numbers, but this might not always be allowed for other events. Always double-check the details to avoid any issues!
Are there other perks to a Weverse Membership besides presale benefits?
Definitely! While early access to tickets is a major perk, don’t forget there’s so much more. You’ll get access to exclusive content, member-only merch, and sometimes even special event invites, so make the most of your membership!
