From making headlines at music festivals in 2017 to making a debut at their biggest venue yet, LANY gave their Filipino fans a night to remember as they performed their hits at the Philippine Arena in Bulacan on Saturday, Oct. 12.

Presented by Live Nation Philippines, the band also did a sold-out concert in 2022.

Before the boys headed to the stage, rock band Culture Wars paved the stage performing their songs "Miley," "Wasting My Time," "Heaven," and "Slowly."

At 7:30 pm, the arena lights went dim as Paul Jason Klein and drummer Jake Goss went up on stage and were welcomed by the loudest cheers of their fans.

The crowd went wild when they opened the show with their song ''you!'' followed by ''ex i never had,'' ''It Even Rains in LA'', ''I Pray,'' ''somewhere,'' "care less," and a fan favorite, "Congrats''.

Before heading to the next song, Paul is in disbelief after seeing the crowd and professing his love to all the fans at the arena.

"This is the biggest show of our lives. … Mahal kita sobra!" Paul said.

LANY's visually appealing concert left the audience in awe and overwhelming feelings as they sang along to their songs: “I Don't Wanna Love You Anymore, “Dancing in the Kitchen,” “Pink Skies,” and “Alonica.”

At one point during the concert, Paul gave his warmest thanks to the Pinoy crowd who had supported them from the beginning.

"Listen Manila you’ve been so, so good to us for many years. In fact I feel that Manila understood LANY before anyone else understood LANY. We owe so much of everything that we have to you. Thank so you much for your love and support,” Paul said.

To make the concert even more memorable, OPM artist Maki made a surprise appearance on the stage performing "Out of My League" with Paul.

He even sang a short verse of his well-known song "Dilaw", while Paul played the melody on his keyboard.  

Another fan-favorite moment is when the band performed a medley of "Super Far" and "Mean It."

As the old saying goes save the best for last, LANY goes all out on their last songs including,  "13," "Hericane," "Cause You Have To," "Thru These Tears,” "Malibu Nights" and "ILYSB."

Just when the fans thought it was over, LANY did an encore with the song "XXL".

Before heading out, Paul penned a last message to their fans saying, "For as long as LANY exists, we will always be here in the Philippines."

Paul and Jake head to Cebu for their three-day concert at the Waterfront Hotel & Casino.
