SB19 cancels Dubai concert, members promise to continue working hard

SB19 canceled another concert from the Asian leg of their PAGTATAG! world tour, their company 1Z Entertainment announced.

The group’s show in Dubai, originally scheduled for November 24 at the Sheikh Rashid Auditorium, will no longer push through.

On X (formerly Twitter) SB19 and the company apologized for the inconvenience. They added, “Your continuous patience and understanding are greatly appreciated.”

With this, the members assured their fans that they would continue to work hard for their future performances.

The company said, “Pablo, Josh, Stell, Ken, and Justin will continue to work hard and prepare for their future performances with positivity and gratitude knowing that they have your unwavering support and trust.”

Refunds are now available through Black Star Entertainment Production via their email dubai.pagtatagtickets@gmail.com. Merch refunds may be done through uneckoproductionsmerch@gmail.com.

Prior to this, SB19 canceled their Singapore and Bangkok shows. The group is still scheduled to perform at the Tokorozawa Sakura Town in Japan on December 9.

The concert cancellations happened following SB19’s departure from their agency, ShowBT Entertainment. They launched their own company 1Z Entertainment in October, with the band’s leader Pablo as the CEO.

Pablo, Josh, Stell, Ken, and Justin have recently removed "SB19" from their Instagram handles and bios. Their fans, A’TIN, now refer to the group as MAHALIMA.

SB19 debuted in 2018. In their five years as a group, they released top hits like “GENTO,” toured the world, appeared on US morning shows, and made history as the first Filipino act to be nominated for a Billboard Music Award, among many other achievements.

We look forward to your next performance, Pablo, Stell, Justin, Josh, and Ken!

It is with deep regret to announce the cancellation of the PAGTATAG! World Tour: Dubai
