TOTO LIVE IN MANILA 2025

Toto is returning to perform live in Manila after 17 years. 

The multi award-winning band will be holding a concert on May 4, 2025, at the SM Mall of Asia Arena, presented by Ovation Productions with Blast TV as the official media partner. Since the band’s last visit to the country was in 2008, this show will be the long-awaited reunion between Toto and their Filipino fans who have longed to hear again the band’s many hits performed live and they will surely not be disappointed.

 

Toto has celebrated one accomplishment after the next throughout the past year. The song “Africa” has been certified DIAMOND for sales of TEN MILLION copies by the RIAA in The United States. Current cumulative sales now exceed 10.5M. Additionally, “Hold the Line” has been certified triple platinum for sales of three million copies, while “Rosanna” hit the milestone of double platinum with sales of two million copies. The song “Africa” has now been streamed TWO BILLION times on Spotify, while “Hold the Line” has reached the milestone of a BILLION streams. Cumulative Toto album sales now exceed 50 MILLION copies, while the band’s repertoire is played more than THREE MILLION times daily on Spotify alone by an audience that continues to get younger month to month. Consistently, over 50% of the band’s streams are from those 34 years or younger. Total streams now exceed 4 BILLION at Spotify, and 6 BILLION across all platforms. 

Aside from Africa, Hold The Line, and Rosanna, Toto’s other hits include I’ll Be Over You, 99, I Won’t Hold You Back, Lea, Georgy Porgy, With A Little Help From My Friends, among others. 

 

Individually and collectively the band’s family tree can be heard on countless Grammy Award winning albums across all genres. Toto are one of the few 70’s bands that have endured the changing trends and styles while continuing to remain relevant. Joining Steve Lukather (guitar / vocals) and Joseph Williams (vocals) are Greg Phillinganes (keyboards / vocals), Shannon Forrest (drums), John Pierce (bass), Warren Ham (horns / percussion / vocals), and Dennis Atlas (keyboards / vocals). 

One of the best guitarists of all time Eddie Van Halen once said that Toto was the band any musician would dream of being in and are probably the best musicians collectively in any band. 

Toto is in the middle of their current world tour with dates across Europe, then Australia and New Zealand heading into Asia which includes a stop in Manila before the start of their U.S. tour in July.
