For the past two years, music fans have only been able to watch their favorite international and local musicians and meet fellow fans online. Luckily for P-pop fans, the first-ever P-pop convention in the country will be held from 9th to 10th April.
The convention includes an in-person P-pop concert at the Smart Araneta Coliseum on 10th April from 3PM to 7PM. It will be the first offline P-pop event to feature several local groups since the start of the pandemic.

Besides the P-pop concert, the convention also has other activities in store for P-pop fans. These will be held at the New Frontier Theater for two days, from 9th to 10th April.
These activities include fanmeets with new girl groups R RULES and DIONE, and more will soon be posted on PPOP Convention’s social media accounts.
If this is anything like the recent KCon – a K-pop convention that was held offline in different cities in the world – fans can expect fashion and beauty merchants, exhibit booths, and hi-touch events.
P-pop has seen increasing popularity lately and this upcoming P-pop Convention only shows how big P-pop has become despite an ongoing global pandemic.
Convention tickets start at P650 (~USD12.42) for a 2-day pass, and online concert tickets are going from P900 (~USD17.20). For updates on concert tickets and convention events, you can follow PPOP Convention on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
