BIGBANG Adds Manila to ‘XX: COSMOS’ 20th Anniversary World Tour
Filipino VIPs will soon welcome BIGBANG back to the Philippines as the K-pop group adds Manila to its 2026–2027 “XX: COSMOS” World Tour.
Concert promoters AEG Presents Asia and Ovation Productions, Inc., in partnership with YG Entertainment, announced that BIGBANG will perform at the SMDC Festival Grounds in Parañaque on February 20, 2027. The concert is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m.
Manila was included in the group’s updated tour schedule after the Philippines was absent from the initial list of destinations. The announcement comes amid growing anticipation from Filipino fans hoping to see the K-pop icons return to the local concert stage.

The “XX: COSMOS” World Tour will begin in Goyang, South Korea, in August before traveling to several cities across Europe, Asia and Australia. Stops include Paris, London, Taipei, Singapore, Hanoi, Sydney, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Osaka, Nagoya, Tokyo, Fukuoka, Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta and Kaohsiung.
The tour also commemorates BIGBANG’s 20th anniversary. The group debuted in 2006 and went on to become one of the most influential acts in K-pop, known for its distinctive hip-hop sound, commanding performances and strong involvement in music production.
Currently composed of G-Dragon, Taeyang and Daesung, BIGBANG is behind several widely recognized hits, including “Haru Haru,” “Fantastic Baby” and “BANG BANG BANG.”
