STAYC’s Manila fan concert is officially part of the group’s 2026 STAY CLOSER tour, with the Philippine stop set for September 20, 2026. For fans planning ahead, the most important confirmed detail is the date; the venue, ticket prices, seat plan, and ticketing schedule have not yet been announced.1
The Manila stop follows the opening Seoul concerts and comes before several other Asia and Australia dates. High Up Entertainment introduced the tour through STAYC’s official Weverse notice, stating in translation, “The 2026 STAYC FAN CONCERT TOUR [STAY CLOSER] begins in August 2026.”2
STAYC Manila Fan Concert: Confirmed Details

The Manila date has been reported consistently across Philippine and Korean coverage. Billboard Philippines reported that STAYC will return to Manila for the 2026 fan concert tour on September 20, 2026, and noted that the announcement was made through Weverse on May 19, 2026.1 GMA News Online also listed the Manila stop for September 20, 2026, while saying that venue and ticketing information were still to be announced.3
For now, fans should treat September 20, 2026 as the key planning date, while waiting for the official promoter or organizer details that will usually clarify where the concert will be held, when tickets go on sale, what prices apply, and whether fan club or presale access will be offered.

Because key local information remains pending, fans should avoid relying on unofficial ticket listings, resale posts, or seat maps that appear before official ticketing details are released. The confirmed public information supports the Manila date and tour placement, but not a venue, pricing tier, or sales platform yet.
Where Manila Fits in the STAY CLOSER Tour
STAYC STAY CLOSER is structured as a fan concert tour rather than a single-city event. Sports Kyunghyang reported that the tour begins with two Seoul shows on August 22 and 23, 2026, then continues to Manila on September 20, Macau on September 26, Taipei on October 11, Perth on October 14, Melbourne on October 16, and Sydney on October 18.4
That schedule places Manila as the first announced stop after Seoul. StarNews also listed Manila as the September 20 stop after the Seoul opening dates and before Macau, Taipei, Perth, Melbourne, and Sydney.5 This matters for practical planning because Manila fans are not looking at a late-tour date; the Philippine stop arrives early in the overseas portion of the schedule.
ABS-CBN News described the Manila update as part of STAYC’s 2026 STAY CLOSER schedule, reinforcing that the Philippine concert is connected to the newly announced fan concert tour rather than a separate local appearance.6 The available reports do not provide a running time, setlist, benefits package, or local organizer details.
Fans comparing cities should note that Seoul has two announced dates, while Manila currently has one listed date. The information available does not say whether additional Manila shows are planned, so any second-date expectation should remain speculative unless an official notice is released.
What Fans Should Watch Next
The next useful update for Manila fans will be the local event announcement covering the venue, ticketing platform, ticket prices, seating layout, sale date, and any membership or presale rules. Billboard Philippines specifically reported that the venue, ticket prices, and seat plan had not yet been announced.1
Until those details arrive, the practical move is to keep the date open and monitor official channels rather than making fixed travel or accommodation plans around an unconfirmed venue. Fans outside Metro Manila should be especially careful because the final venue will affect travel time, accommodation location, and transportation choices.
It is also worth separating confirmed tour facts from normal fan expectations. The sources confirm a Manila fan concert date, a wider seven-city route, and the tour’s August opening in Seoul. They do not confirm ticket tiers, VIP benefits, fan interaction formats, merchandise sales, entry rules, or age restrictions.
