Hi!! I don’t really understand how Festa works and I see everyone so excited and I’m a little confused? Could you explain how it works to me please??
Hey! Sure thing!! ☺️
So festa is pretty much a celebration that always occurs in the first 2 weeks of June as a commemoration Of the day bts debuted (13th June 2013)
What happens is that to celebrate their debut, every day leading up to the 13th, bts will release special content that they have prepared for us, specifically for festa.
This means that we get new photos, new songs, new videos, dance routines etcetera all within this time frame, as a celebration of bts as a group!
The new content gets released every day at 12am KST so check what time that is for you! At this time a link will be posted on the bts official twitter page that will redirect to either Facebook (photos), YouTube (videos) or soundcloud (sound files)
In the past we have had song covers/new songs such as Jungkook and Jimin’s version of ‘We Don’t Talk Anymore’ or Taehyung and Namjoons ‘4 o clock’.
For festa 2016, 2017 and 2018 they’ve also done small performances in Korea that have been streamed on vlive where they perform songs they don’t usually perform, play games, have competitions and perform some of the new content too! (This year they don’t seem to be doing this I think probably because they have the musters instead!) but it’s from these concerts where we got the amazing namjoon and Jin dance solos (festa 2016), the 3J dance performance (festa 2017) and the legendary ddaeng performance (festa 2018) amongst loads of other absolutely amazing things!
One of my personal favourite things is that yearly the boys will come together in a video to talk about their year, answer questions, send each other ‘anonymous’ messages and so forth in something called ‘honey fm’ or last year it was the bangtan dinner party! It’s always hilarious!!
So yeah, festa is basically bts spoiling us with even more fun content that gets released daily up until the official anniversary date!
Hopefully I explained this well enough but if you have any more questions, please message me again and I’ll try my best to answer them!! ☺️
Festa is really my favourite time of the year as a bts fan so I hope you enjoy it!!
Also if you want any links to any of the content from past festas let me know and I can redirect you to them so you can get a better idea of what goes on! If you search for any of it though, it will all be pretty easy to find on YouTube!
This is the schedule for festa this year:
