What went down at Puregold OPM Con 2025 at the Philippine Arena
At Puregold OPM Con 2025, that connection was clear. Performers gave their all onstage, and the crowd answered with thunderous cheers, dancing, and full-on singalongs. It was a shared experience that showed how OPM continues to resonate across generations.
The production matched the scale of the event. Massive video walls lit up the Philippine Arena in full color and motion, bringing each set to life. But what truly elevated the atmosphere were the LED wristbands worn by every attendee. These bands synced with the music, shifting from green to purple to red and blue, depending on the mood and energy of the songs. As the beats dropped and choruses soared, the arena pulsed with waves of color, turning the audience into part of the performance.
On Saturday, not even the rainy weather could dampen the crowd’s energy as more than 30,000 fans trooped to the Philippine Arena for Puregold OPM Con 2025, a massive celebration of Original Pinoy Music with BINI opening the show and SB19 closing the night. The concert was part of Puregold’s “Nasa Atin Ang Panalo” campaign.
BINI kicked off the show with “Karera,” followed by fan favorites “Cherry on Top” and “Pantropiko.” They later welcomed James Reid to the stage for a performance of their collaboration “Secrets.”
Reid, dressed in a brown suede top and vintage pants, delivered his verses with ease and charm, matching BINI’s polished energy as the crowd roared in approval.
Surprise collaborations kept fans on their feet throughout the night. BINI, SB19’s Stell, G22’s Alfea, and KAIA’s Charlotte joined forces for a joint dance number to “Shagidi.”
G22 delivered a strong set with a mix of their signature style and intensity, followed by a joint performance of “Salamat” with Yeng Constantino. KAIA kept the momentum going with a tightly choreographed set, then teamed up with Mayonnaise on a crowd-favorite rendition of “Jopay.”
SunKissed Lola brought breezy charm to the arena with their distinct sound, while Flow G marked his Philippine Arena debut with a high-energy performance. Skusta Clee joined him onstage for a collaborative set that drew loud cheers from the crowd.
SB19’s set featured “DAM,” “8TonBall,” and “CRIMZONE,” delivering one of the night’s loudest responses. The group later performed “Liwanag sa Dilim” with OPM rock icon Rico Blanco in one of the most talked-about moments of the night.
For the finale, Blanco returned to the stage to dance with SB19, BINI’s Sheena, and members of G22, capping the show on a celebratory high.
Fans flew in from different parts of the country and abroad, including Singapore and the United Arab Emirates, underscoring the growing global reach of OPM and Puregold’s expanding presence in the live music scene.
“This wasn’t just a concert—it was a service for our shoppers and music fans,” said Ivy Hayagan-Piedad, Puregold’s senior marketing manager. “We’ve always believed our relationship with customers goes far beyond the checkout counter.”
“Nasa Atin Ang Panalo has evolved into something more purposeful than a campaign. It’s now a crusade—one that celebrates the strength, dreams, and talents of Filipinos,” said Hayagan-Piedad. “Through this platform, we hope to showcase our homegrown artists and inspire Puregold members and customers as they relish original panalo music on a world-class stage.”
