Sports Minister Natalia Duco offered two alternatives for BTS concerts scheduled for October to take place in Chile. The options include a protective structure at the National Stadium or relocation to other venues. This follows the denial of authorization for the Central Coliseum.
Minister Natalia Duco explained Thursday that the National Sports Institute rejected use of the Central Coliseum at the National Stadium due to an insufficient mitigation report from producer DG Medios. The 360-degree stage weighing around 600 tons did not guarantee protection of the field or the subsequent sports calendar.
Duco detailed that the evaluation lasted more than 10 months since September 2025 and that no prior authorization existed. She proposed first a mecano-type structure to distribute loads and protect the field. As a second option, she suggested moving the shows to the Esplanade of the National Stadium Park or to Cerrillos Park, with dates already reserved.
Presidential delegate Germán Codina stated that a quick solution is being sought together with the producer. The rights of ticket buyers are protected and they can turn to SERNAC in case of breaches.
