Olivia Rodrigo made her ticket prices lower for her show in the Philippines, and fans are thrilled
Olivia Rodrigo is taking her tour to the Philippines for the first time, and her fans in Manila couldn’t be happier with the ticket prices.
The Grammy Award-winning singer, 21, whose father is Filipino, will be stopping by Manila in October as part of the world tour for her latest album “GUTS,” which is taking her through Asia next. All tickets for the Manila show are 1,500 Philippine pesos, or around $27, including all taxes and fees.
Rodrigo’s team told NBC News that they kept prices lower than usual so more people could attend. By comparison, tickets for a show in Singapore the same week go up to $308 Singapore dollars, or $239.
“i’m soooo excited to visit the Philippines for the first time,” Rodrigo said in a Facebook post earlier this month, sharing that all proceeds from the show will go to the singer’s nonprofit Fund 4 Good, which works to support women’s rights globally.
Rodrigo’s hive, called “Livies,” were thrilled to hear about the tour stop and the ticket prices.
“1,500 pesos to see Olivia Rodrigo?? Is this true?? If yes? I’m def coming!” one person commented on her Facebook post.
“Such a treat and thanks Olivia for making it so affordable for Filipinos!” another said.
When she was a child actor on Disney Channel, Rodrigo made a video talking about her Filipino heritage. In it, she talked about her great-grandfather, who came to the U.S. on a boat when he was a teenager.
“We actually make Filipino food,” she said. “My great grandpa had a garden and he was also a really good cook. He’d make Lumpias; they’re kind of like Filipino egg rolls and really yummy… I’m a Lumpia fan.”
“Livies” in the Philippines are especially hyped for Rodrigo’s performance given their shared heritage. Some are calling her low ticket pricing a “presyong kababayan,” or fellow Filipino price.
“People there are so welcoming and hospitable and awesome,” Rodrigo said in an interview with Rolling Stone last year. “Filipino people ride for other Filipino people.”
