Canadian pop-punk band Simple Plan is set to return to the Philippines for a one-night concert at the Smart Araneta Coliseum on November 25, 2026, organizers announced.

The show is part of the group’s “The Bigger Than You Think!” global tour, which marks the band’s 25th anniversary and features stops across Southeast Asia, including Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and Hong Kong. The Manila leg is presented by Midas Promotions and Wilbros Live.

Known for early-2000s anthems such as "I'm Just a Kid," "Welcome to My Life" and "Perfect," the band is expected to deliver a setlist spanning its entire catalog, alongside fan favorites and rarely performed tracks.

“We’re really excited to finally come back to Southeast Asia and bring our tour to all our fans,” the band said in a statement. “It’s been three years since our last visit in 2023, and we’re grateful to return to a place that has supported us since day one.”

The group added that the anniversary shows will be “very special,” promising a high-energy performance built on nostalgia and crowd-driven moments.

Formed in Montreal, the quartet — composed of Pierre Bouvier, Chuck Comeau, Jeff Stinco and Sébastien Lefebvre — rose to global prominence with their 2002 debut album No Pads, No Helmets... Just Balls and have since accumulated billions of streams worldwide.

Over the years, the band has headlined major tours, performed at global events including the 2010 Winter Olympics, and collaborated with acts such as Avril Lavigne and The Offspring.

Tickets for the Manila concert will be available through TicketNet outlets nationwide. A pre-sale is scheduled for May 4 at 11 a.m., followed by general ticket sales beginning May 5 at the same time.
