OPM band The Juans announced that they are rescheduling their supposed Live in Europe tour to later this September as preparations for the shows continue.
In a statement posted on their official social media pages, the band said the decision was made in mutual agreement with their tour producer to ensure a better concert experience for their Filipino fans in Europe who have waited for them
“To our Kababayans in Europe, it's an extraordinary time to put together a tour amidst uncertainties around the world. After careful discussions with our tour producer, DLM Eventive, we have mutually agreed to move our Europe Tour dates to later this September as we continue finalizing all venues and production arrangements for the shows,” they wrote.
They went on: “This decision was made with one goal in mind to ensure that we deliver the best possible experience and performance for our fellow Filipinos in Europe. We want to make sure that every detail is fully prepared so we can give you a show that truly reflects our appreciation for your support and excitement.”
The band was originally scheduled to begin the European leg of the tour on May 31 in Milan, Italy, followed by stops in Paris, Madrid, and Frankfurt throughout June.
“While the tour dates are moving, our plans to visit Europe remain unchanged. In the coming weeks, we'll still be traveling to meet fellow Filipinos, share stories, and create meaningful moments together as we prepare for what will be a very special tour this September,” they announced.
The band also assured fans that those who already purchased tickets will receive updates from the organizer regarding the next steps.
“Ticket holders will be contacted directly by DLM Eventive Group regarding the next steps for their tickets. Thank you for your patience, understanding, and continued support. We look forward to seeing you all very soon,” they said.
Prior to their Europe tour, The Juans held their Singapore stop last year for their Tawid album tour that became a memorable experience due to “P-pop community bayanihan.”
In an exclusive interview with PUSH ABS-CBN, the band recalled how their international show turned into a sold-out success through a collective effort not only from their own fanbase but also from SB19’s A’TIN and overseas Filipino workers (OFWs).
“We're very blessed na bukod sa mga Juanistas, yung A’TINs, which is the fans of SB19, kumbaga bilang mga kapatid namin yung SB19, sila din ay naging talagang parang pamilyang sumaklolo sa amin,” band member Carl Guevarra expressed. “They also helped us promote, ipakalat yung balita, parang it became their life task to make sure na maging successful itong concert na ito.”

The band also expressed excitement in bringing their tour to more international stages as they look forward to experiencing different cultures while “bringing comfort and a sense of home to listeners around the world.”
“As we bring this music to different parts of the world, we’re reminded that Filipino stories don’t stop at our borders. They resonate wherever there are people who feel, who hope, and who heal,” the band shared.
