SB19 had their first-ever performance in Dubai last night! 

In a surprise announcement made only mere hours before the concert, the P-pop hitmakers were revealed to be the latest Filipino act performing at Expo 2020 Dubai. And in true SB19 fashion, tickets were selling out fast.

Papatungo sa'king pangarap, lagi ko kayong tanaw sa paglipad 🛫

See you Dubai! 💙#SB19 #SB19atDubaiExpo2020 pic.twitter.com/XKx4GJotwK

Despite the last-minute announcement, A'TIN (SB19 fans) came in by the hundreds, armed with lightsticks and an excited heart to see the 'Bazinga' act live. This comes as SB19's first international performance in two years and follows their two-day anniversary celebration concert Our Zone last November. 

While many fans reported technical difficulties during their set at Dec Arena, the 'MAPA' act stunned audiences with their powerful vocals, precise choreography, and fiery energy.

There’s a huge difference between watching it on the livestream and on person. Sobrang ganda ng live perf!! Considering the short notice and preparation, we A’TIN and SB19 made it happen! 🥹💙
