XG’s ‘THE CORE’ World Tour Heads to Manila This July 2026

XG is set to bring their electrifying stage presence to fans once again as the powerhouse seven-member group officially unveils their highly anticipated XG WORLD TOUR: THE CORE, their second global concert trek in support of their first full-length album, THE CORE – 核. Known for pushing boundaries with their genre-defying sound, razor-sharp choreography, and commanding live performances, XG promises a concert experience that highlights both their artistry and evolution as an international act.

The tour first kicked off in Japan to overwhelming demand, drawing packed crowds and multiple sold-out shows in major cities including Yokohama, Osaka, and Nagoya. Fans can expect a dynamic setlist featuring crowd favorites such as “LEFT RIGHT” and “WOKE UP,” alongside newer releases like “HYPNOTIZE” and “ROCK THE BOAT.” Following the successful launch, the group is set to continue their journey across Asia with stops in Bangkok, Manila, and Taipei.

In the Philippines, XG WORLD TOUR: THE CORE IN MANILA will take place at the SM Mall of Asia Arena, presented by AEG Presents Asia and Ovation Productions. General ticket sales begin on April 30 at 12 PM local time via SM Tickets online and outlets nationwide. Ticket prices range from PHP 3,500 to PHP 16,500, excluding ticketing charges.

Since debuting in March 2022 with their breakout single “Tippy Toes,” XG—short for Xtraordinary Girls—has steadily cemented its place on the global stage. The seven-member act, composed of JURIN, CHISA, HINATA, HARVEY, JURIA, MAYA, and COCONA, has become known for blending bold visuals, genre-crossing music, and empowering concepts that resonate with audiences worldwide.

The group has achieved several milestones throughout their career, including becoming the first Japanese act to top Billboard’s Hot Trending Songs Powered by Twitter chart. Their second mini album, AWE, released in late 2024, also marked their first appearance on the prestigious Billboard 200 chart.

In 2024, XG embarked on their inaugural global trek, XG 1st WORLD TOUR “The first HOWL,” which spanned 47 shows across 35 cities and drew an estimated 400,000 concertgoers. The tour culminated in a massive Tokyo Dome finale in May 2025, where the group performed before approximately 50,000 fans. That same year, XG also made waves internationally as the only Japanese artist to perform at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, earning praise for their standout set on the Sahara Stage.

Earlier this year, XG released their first studio album, THE CORE – 核, which landed in the Top 100 of the Billboard 200, further proving the group’s growing global reach. As they continue their second world tour across Asia, North America, the UK, Europe, and beyond, fans can expect even bigger stages and bolder performances from one of today’s most exciting acts.
