A1 Set for Back-to-Back Manila and Cebu Concerts in October 2026

Just when fans think it cannot get any better, A1 finds a way to top the moment.

The British-Norwegian pop group is heading back to the Philippines this October 2026, bringing their signature blend of nostalgia and kilig to two major cities. They will take the stage in Cebu on October 16 at the Waterfront Cebu City Hotel & Casino, followed by a Manila show on October 17 at the New Frontier Theater.

After the success of their Valentine’s Tour in February 2025, A1 returns with more than just throwback hits. Composed of Paul Marazzi, Christian Ingebrigtsen, Mark Read, and Ben Adams, the group continues to strengthen a decades-long connection with Filipino fans, one that goes beyond music and into shared memories.

Concertgoers can expect a mix of beloved classics, from the gentle emotion of “Like a Rose” and “Everytime” to the heartfelt “Heaven by Your Side” and the infectious energy of “Same Old Brand New You.” Each performance reflects a bond that has remained steady through the years.

Over multiple visits to the country, A1 has become more than an international act to Filipino audiences. Their familiarity and warmth on stage have earned them a reputation as honorary locals, with a fanbase that has stayed loyal since the early days of their career.

Their latest return follows the momentum of their 2023 TWENTY FIVE Anniversary Tour, which drew strong crowds in key cities and prompted an additional Manila date after tickets for the first night quickly sold out.

The group has often expressed how special the Philippines is to them, citing the unmatched energy and warmth of Filipino fans as something they always look forward to experiencing again.
