Welcome back! 2NE1 to hold concert in Manila


Sandara Park’s wish came true: The Philippines is included in 2NE1’s comeback concert. 

YG Entertainment, 2NE1’s agency, announced on Sept. 6 that Manila and Jakarta are included in the “2NE1 Asia Tour: Welcome Back” concert. 

In Manila, 2NE1 will hold the concert on Nov. 16, Saturday. They will have their concert in Jakarta on Nov. 23, Saturday. 

The announcement was reposted by Live Nation Philippines.

2NE1 held their last concert in Manila through the “All or Nothing” tour on May 17, 2014. 

In July after YG Entertainment announced 2NE1’s comeback concert, a fan tagged Sandara on X, telling her that she hopes the Philippines will be included in the 2NE1 concert tour. 

“@krungy21 ati sana included philippines sa concert nyo sa 2025 (@krungy21 I hope the Philippines is included in your concert in 2025),” the fan wrote. 

Sandara replied, “Marami pa bang PH Blackjacks?! that is one of my wish syempre (Are there still many PH [Philippine] Blackjacks [fans]? that is one of my wish of course).” 

Before the Manila show, 2NE1 will hold the Welcome Back concert in Seoul on Oct. 4 to 6 at the Olympic Hall in Olympic Park. 

This will be 2NE1’s first concert in 10 years and seven months since holding their “All or Nothing” concert in Seoul on March 1 and 2, 2014.
