Presidential Communications Office (PCO) Director for Broadcast Production Cris Villonco said this ahead of the second "Konsyerto sa Palasyo" this coming weekend.

In an interview with State-run PTV-4, the Filipino thespian said over 300 Filipino athletes will attend the event, called "Konsyerto sa Palasyo: Para sa Atletang Pilipino," at the Palace's Kalayaan Grounds on Sunday at 6:30 p.m. She hoped that the weather would be clear that night.

"We will be having around over 300 athletes physically present and watching the show with the First Family," Villonco said.

"Hopefully, mabait sa atin ang weather because napakagandang makita ang dating mga (Hopefully, the weather would be kind to us because it's very delightful to see our) artist and, of course, the audiences really enjoying the show and singing along," she added.

The event, however, is exclusive to Filipino athletes and will not be open to the public.

"We cannot open the doors to the public. We're asking if you can please watch and support sa Facebook pages ng Radio Television Malacañang and YouTube (through the Facebook page and YouTube channel of RTVM)," she added.

According to Villonco, the artists performing on Aug. 6 would come from different parts of the country.

This would be the second Konsyerto sa Palasyo that President Marcos hosted this year. In April, the President hosted the "Konsyerto sa Palasyo: Awit ng Magiting" for the personnel of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) and their families.

The PCO said the first Konsyerto sa Palasyo aimed to acknowledge the sacrifices of the members of the AFP to maintain the nation's sovereignty, peace, and security.

In her interview with PTV-4, Villonco said they hope to stage concerts in Malacañang every quarter.
