Following the overwhelming success of his debut Manila show in 2024, Canadian singer-songwriter Elijah Woods is set to make an exciting return to the Philippines with two concert dates in 2025.
On July 25, Elijah will serenade fans at Samsung Hall in SM Aura Premier, Manila, before flying to the Visayas to bring his hit songs to Cebu on July 26 at the IC3 Convention Center. Produced by CNCA, these back-to-back shows promise unforgettable nights of music, emotion, and connection.
Known for his emotionally resonant lyrics and melodic pop sound, Elijah has quickly become a beloved figure in the hearts of Filipino fans. With viral tracks like “24/7, 365” and “Where We’re Going,” Woods has built a dedicated following in the Philippines, where his songs continue to dominate local streaming charts and resonate deeply with listeners.
What makes this upcoming tour especially exciting is that it’s not just for fans who already know every lyric. Whether you’re a longtime listener or someone just discovering Elijah for the first time, these shows promise to be more than just a concert. Woods is known for his authentic storytelling and magnetic stage presence.
The Manila show, scheduled for July 25, will start at 8 p.m. at the Samsung Hall in SM Aura Premier, while the Cebu show will take place on July 26 at 7 p.m. at the vibrant IC3 Convention Center in Cebu City.
To make these nights even more memorable, special ticket tiers are available for fans who want a deeper connection with Elijah himself. SVIP ticket holders in both cities will enjoy an exclusive photo opportunity with the artist, as well as early access to his soundcheck. VIP ticket holders will also be given access to the soundcheck, making them part of the behind-the-scenes magic.

Elijah has always had a special relationship with his Filipino audience.
During his first concert in Manila, the crowd’s energy moved him so profoundly that he dedicated the chorus of his hit song “Everything Everywhere Always” to a couple who got engaged mid-show, which is a testament to how his music brings people together in meaningful ways. His return is not just a tour stop; it’s a reunion with his beloved Filipino fans.
As Elijah himself once said, “I love the Philippines! By far the loudest crowd we’ve played!” Tickets are available via SM Tickets.
