TJ Monterde thanks Dubai fans after packed Coca-Cola Arena show: ‘Grabe kayo!’

Following a successful sold-out concert at the Coca-Cola Arena, TJ Monterde took to Instagram to share his heartfelt gratitude and emotions after performing for thousands of Filipinos in Dubai as part of his Sarili Nating Mundo world tour.

“May mga experiences sa buhay na feeling mo tipong di mo alam kung mauulit pa,” Monterde wrote. “Ganon na ganon yung naramdaman ko kagabi dito sa Dubai.” He expressed how overwhelming the experience was, unsure if a moment like that would ever happen again.

The concert marked the third stop in the Middle East leg of his tour, after Manila and Doha, and drew a massive crowd of Overseas Filipinos who filled the arena with cheers and OPM pride.

“We really embraced every moment, enjoyed every instant and savored every single minute — ninamnam talaga! Sulit na sulit!” he shared. Monterde also gave thanks, writing, “Lord, ulit, thank You po sa pagkakataon na ma experience namin ito.”

Capping his post, TJ gave a special shout-out to his Dubai fans: “DUBAAAI! we had the best time last night, grabe kayo! maraming salamat sa sandaling makasama namin kayong lahat — sa ‘Sarili Nating Mundo.’”

The show was part of his ongoing international tour, with the next stops scheduled in Singapore on July 20 and Cebu City on July 24–25.
