Dubai is about to witness a powerful P-Pop storm. Filipino global music sensation SB19 is set to take center stage at the Coca-Cola Arena on Saturday, October 11, 2025, for a one-night-only concert that promises electrifying choreography, fan-favorite hits, and a celebration of Filipino talent.
Presented by Live Nation Middle East, the show will showcase SB19’s genre-blending sound and signature stage presence that has captivated audiences across the globe. Tickets go on presale starting Thursday, August 7, at 12 PM via LiveNation.me, with general sale beginning Friday, August 8, at 12 PM via LiveNation.me and Coca-Cola-Arena.com.
SB19—composed of Pablo, Josh, Stell, Ken, and Justin—was formed in 2018 and rose to fame with their viral hit “Go Up” in 2019. Blending modern pop, hip-hop, and electronic elements with a strong Filipino identity, the group redefined the local music scene and launched P-Pop onto the global stage.
The quintet’s impact is backed by history-making achievements: the first Filipino act nominated at the Billboard Music Awards, their hit “Bazinga” topping the Billboard Hot Trending Songs chart for seven weeks, and an impressive catalog of hits from Pagsibol to the PAGTATAG! era. The latter gave rise to the viral track “GENTO,” which took over TikTok with over 1.7 million videos and earned a spot on Billboard’s World Digital Song Sales chart.
In 2024, SB19 broke new ground as the first Filipino performers on Japan’s renowned THE FIRST TAKE YouTube channel, where they delivered stirring renditions of “GENTO” and the emotional ballad “MAPA.” This year, their 2025 comeback EP Simula at Wakas reaffirmed their reign, with lead track “DAM” debuting at No. 1 on Billboard’s World Digital Song Sales and charting in the Philippines, Middle East, and Hong Kong under the IFPI Top 20.
Beyond the charts, SB19 has become cultural ambassadors for the Philippines, gracing stages from Good Day New York to the Asia Artist Awards, and racking up accolades including the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Award for Favorite Asian Act and Brazil’s SEC Awards’ Grupo Internacional do Ano.
With over 4 million subscribers on YouTube, 4.2 million followers on TikTok, and millions more across social media platforms, SB19’s Dubai concert is expected to draw A’TINs from across the region for a night of music, pride, and unforgettable moments.
