Fans sang along to nearly every song, cheered through every performance, and showed up with fan projects that filled the arena with purple lights. ITZY even called the Philippines “top one in cheers,” giving Filipino MIDZYs some well-earned bragging rights.
A Night Packed With Fan Favourites

For many fans, it was a long-awaited reunion—and one that definitely lived up to expectations.
When Will ITZY Return to the Philippines?
There’s no official date for another Manila concert just yet, but ITZY made one thing clear before leaving the stage: they want to come back soon.
