Filipino fans of Olivia Rodrigo are in for an unforgettable experience, as the Filipino-American pop sensation is bringing her highly anticipated “GUTS: World Tour” to the Philippines. Presented by Live Nation Philippines, this special concert marks Olivia’s first-ever performance in the country, making it an extra exciting occasion for both the artist and her local fans. The event is scheduled for October 5 at the massive Philippine Arena in Bulacan.
What makes this concert even more thrilling for fans is the unique and affordable approach to ticket pricing. All tickets for the Manila show will be sold at a flat rate of just P1,500 (around $26), including taxes. This pricing strategy ensures that fans from all walks of life can attend the concert without breaking the bank. It’s a rare move in the world of major concert events, and it’s something that has been highly praised by fans online. Ticket sales will kick off on Saturday, September 14 at 10 a.m., and each fan can purchase up to four tickets per transaction.
But there’s a twist: all tickets will be sold as “Silver Star Tickets,” and seat locations will only be revealed when the tickets are picked up after September 28. This adds an element of surprise, as fans won’t know whether they’ll be seated in prime floor sections or in limited-view or upper-level sections until just days before the show. The random allocation ensures that all fans have an equal shot at getting some of the best seats in the house.
However, there’s even more heart behind this event than just the music. What makes Olivia Rodrigo’s Manila show even more special is that all net proceeds from the ticket sales will be donated to Olivia’s charitable initiative, “Fund 4 Good.” This global initiative, established by the singer herself, aims to support community-based nonprofits that are focused on empowering women and girls. The fund’s mission includes advancing girls’ education, advocating for reproductive rights, and preventing gender-based violence. So, by attending this concert, Filipino fans won’t just be enjoying an incredible night of live music—they’ll also be making a meaningful contribution to a cause that Olivia deeply believes in.
Olivia has already generated a buzz among her Filipino fans. She previously hinted at her upcoming visit to the Philippines in a video message promoting her latest single, “Obsessed.” Her Filipino heritage has always been a point of pride for her, and she has spoken openly about how much her culture means to her. This makes her first-ever concert in the Philippines even more momentous, not just for her fans but for Olivia herself.
Olivia Rodrigo’s rise to fame has been meteoric. She first captured the world’s attention with the release of her debut single, “drivers license,” in January 2021. The emotional ballad resonated with fans globally, shooting to the top of charts and breaking streaming records. It wasn’t long before she followed up with hits like “deja vu” and the angsty anthem “good 4 u,” both of which cemented her as one of pop’s biggest new stars.
Her debut album, SOUR, became a massive success, earning her widespread critical acclaim and a slew of prestigious awards. She took home several Grammys, including Best New Artist and Best Pop Vocal Album, and her trophy collection has only grown since, with honors from the American Music Awards, MTV Video Music Awards, and more.
Now, with her second album, GUTS, Olivia is showing no signs of slowing down. Her world tour is set to take her to cities across the globe, but her stop in the Philippines will undoubtedly be one of the most special. Filipino fans have been eagerly waiting for this moment, and with her affordable ticket prices and the charity aspect of the concert, Olivia is making sure that as many fans as possible can share in the magic.
As fans prepare to snap up tickets on September 14, the excitement is palpable. Not only will they witness one of the biggest stars of their generation perform live, but they’ll also be part of a concert that stands for something much bigger. It’s a night of music, empowerment, and pride—one that Filipino fans won’t want to miss.
