MANILA, Philippines — American R&B singer-songwriter GIVEON is bringing his “Dear Beloved, The Tour” to Manila on Feb. 4, 2026.
Mounted by Live Nation Philippines, GIVEON will serenade the Filipino crowd at the New Frontier Theater with Heartbreak Anniversary, Chicago Freestyle and other hits.
The announcement of the seven-time Grammy nominated music artist, whose real name is Giveon Dezmann Evans, came after his grand finale show for his USA leg of “Dear Beloved, The Tour” at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
He released his Grammy Award-nominated extended plays “Take Time” and “When It’s All Said and Done” in 2020 and studio albums “Give or Take” and “Beloved” in 2022 and 2025, respectively.
The California-born crooner grew up listening to Frank Sinatra and Barry White, and was heavily influenced by rapper-singer Drake.
In fact, Chicago Freestyle is a collaborative track by Drake and GIVEON. The former even invited GIVEON to be his special guest at the Wireless Festival in the United Kingdom.
“How this album is going to translate to the live show — I think it’s going to be magical because the album was made live, so it’s made to be performed live,” GIVEON said in a Rolling Stone issue.
“It’s going to be my best tour. I want to do strings, I want to do horns, I want to do background vocals, so I feel like (I’ll have) a full eight to 10-piece (backing band), depending on how big the stages are. The album is really a movie, it’s a world, and I want the night to feel like that.”
The world tour will also make a stop in Perth on Feb. 12, with additional shows in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Auckland’s Spark Arena on Feb. 22.
The European run will kick off in Stockholm on Mar. 6, with stops in Oslo, Berlin, Paris, London’s iconic O2 Arena and more and will conclude at Zurich’s The Hall on Mar. 26.
Meanwhile, tickets for the Manila show are available via ticketnet.com.ph and its outlets.
