We know Westlife songs are staples during karaoke nights but now you can sing along with the boys live at their upcoming concert in Manila

The Irish boyband that was massive in the 90s announced today that it will be coming back to Manila on July 30 to perform at the Araneta Coliseum in Cubao, Quezon City.

Westlife made the announcement over its social media accounts today, along with concert dates in other Asian cities.

The group — consisting Shane Filan, Kian Egan, Nicky Byrne, and Marcus Feehily — will hold “The Twenty Tour” to celebrate their 20th anniversary.

The Manila concert will be presented by Wilbros Live. The event organizer said in a Facebook post today that tickets will be available starting March 30 via Ticketnet or its website. They have yet to release ticket prices.

The band will perform in other Coconuts cities such as Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia.

Westlife is best known for its hits “My Love,” “Swear It Again,” “If I Let You Go,” “Flying Without Wings,” and “Seasons in the Sun,” and its covers of songs such as “Mandy” and the bop “Uptown Girl.”
