2nd ‘Yugto’ concert featuring IV of Spades, Kai Montinola moves to MOA Arena

MANILA, Philippines — The countdown to one of 2026's biggest OPM spectacles has officially begun as tickets for "Ikalawang Yugto: Buhay at Pag-Ibig" are now available. 

Headlined by funk-rock band IV of Spades, the landmark concert will take place at the SM Mall of Asia Arena on Sunday, August 2 at 7 p.m. 

Joining the band for this one-night-only event are “Pinoy Big Brother Gen 11” standouts Kai Montinola and Kolette Madelo, alongside “Tawag ng Tanghalan Duets” Season 2 Grand Champions Arvery Lagoring and Christian Tibayan (ArChan).

IV of Spades, whose current single "Kabisado" is dominating music streaming platforms and local radio airwaves, is arguably one of today’s most sought-after Filipino acts. Since earlier this year, the band has been making waves nationwide through a highly successful, multi-city concert tour spanning major venues across Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.

Their cultural impact remains unmatched, so much so that Pinoy rock icon Rico Blanco recently mentioned in a TV interview that IV of Spades is his absolute "dream collaboration."

For co-headliner Kai Montinola, sharing the stage with the band is a dream come true. A longtime admirer of IV of Spades' distinct brand of funk-rock since hearing their hit "Come Inside of My Heart," Kai shared her excitement over the band's historic 2025 return after a years-long hiatus. 

"I am incredibly honored to be one of the performers chosen to join IVOS for 'Ikalawang YUGTO...' I am so excited for this night," Kai said.

Tickets for "Ikalawang YUGTO: Buhay at Pag-Ibig" are available simultaneously online and over the counter nationwide. Fans can secure their seats directly through the official SM Tickets website.
