THE British-Norwegian pop band A1 is set to bring “kilig” and nostalgia to their Filipino fans once again, performing in Cebu on Oct. 16, 2026 at the Waterfront Cebu City Hotel and Casino, and in Manila on Oct. 17, 2026 at the New Frontier Theater.
FROM INTERNATIONAL IDOLS TO HONORARY LOCALS British-Norwegian pop band A1, composed of Paul Marazzi, Christian Ingebrigtsen, Mark Read and Ben Adams, returns for a night in Cebu and a night in Manila on Oct. 16 and 17, respectively, bringing excitement and nostalgia to their Filipino fans once again after more than five visits in the past.

Following their highly successful Valentine’s Tour in the same cities in Feb. 2025, the group, consisting of Paul Marazzi, Christian Ingebrigtsen, Mark Read and Ben Adams, returns for a night that goes far beyond a trip down memory lane.
From the soulful harmonies of “Like A Rose,” the fan favorite “Everytime,” the sweet and heartfelt ballad “Heaven by Your Side” to the high-octane energy of “Same Old Brand New You,” the connection between the quartet and their Filipino fans remains one of the most enduring love affairs in pop music history.
With more than five visits to the Philippines under their belt, A1 has evolved from international idols into honorary locals.
The bond between A1 and their Filipino fans remains a landmark of pop music loyalty, anchored by a foundation of genuine friendship and a mutual devotion to the band’s melodic hits.
A1’s return follows a streak of record-breaking milestones.
Their 2023 Twenty Five Anniversary Tour saw packed arenas in Davao and Cebu, culminating in a back-to-back Manila concert after the first night sold out almost instantly.
“We’ve just been received so well every time we perform in the Philippines. You don’t get a better welcome than here,” the band shared in an interview.
Tickets for both shows officially go on sale on Friday, March 13, 2026 at 12 noon, via SM Tickets and TicketNet.
