MANILA, Philippines — Filipino music fans may soon see Hayley Williams back in Manila as the American singer-songwriter has seemingly teased a Philippine stop for her ongoing solo tour, “The Hayley Williams Show,” in 2027.
Speculation about Williams’ possible return to Asia gained traction online following a YouTube livestream featuring a billboard at Tokyo’s famous Shibuya Crossing, accompanied by her song “Dream Girl in Shibuya.”
The visual teaser displayed a list of potential tour dates in four major Asian cities, with Manila scheduled as the first stop on February 24, followed by Singapore on February 26, Seoul on March 1, and Tokyo on March 3.
If confirmed, the Manila show would mark Williams’ return to the Philippines after eight years. Her last performance in the country was with her band Paramore at the Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City on August 23, 2018, as part of their “Tour Four.”
Williams is best known as the lead vocalist and co-founder of the American rock band Paramore. Beyond her work with the group, she has also pursued a solo career, with her ongoing tour bringing her music to audiences around the world.
“The Hayley Williams Show” kicked off on September 3, 2026 in West Palm Beach and is scheduled to wrap up on July 3, 2027 in London.
While the teaser has generated excitement among Asian fans, the proposed Manila date has yet to receive official confirmation. Local concert promoters and Williams’ management have also not announced details regarding the venue, ticket prices, or ticket-selling schedule.
