MANILA, Philippines — Local music icon Gary Valenciano caps off the year as the featured headliner of Okada Manila’s New Year's Eve Countdown, titled "Step Right Up To 2026" happening on December 31 at Cove Manila.

The grand countdown will bring together an exciting mix of artists, with Gary V sharing the stage with Yeng Constantino, Randy Santiago, DJ Pretty Dragon, Tom Taus, Regine Tolentino, DJ Sofia Miguel, and Gary's children Kiana and Gabriel.

2025 proved once again to be a standout year for Mr. Pure Energy as he remains to be an extremely influential force across generations.

This year, he headlined major concerts, including his major tours "Inspired" in North America and "Gary V Live" in Australia and New Zealand — bringing Filipino excellence to global stages.

He also made memorable concert guest appearances alongside artists such as Regine Velasquez, Dionela, and Jose Mari Chan, while continuing his strong presence on television through ABS-CBN’s "Your Face Sounds Familiar," "Idol Kids," and "ASAP Natin 'To."

Beyond the stage and screen, Gary V expanded his reach through endorsements, returned to musical theater in "Joseph the Dreamer," and remained steadfast in his advocacies, actively doing the rounds in his on-going inspirational campus tour called Face2Face and his fundraising events for Operation Blessings.

As 2026 approaches, Gary Valenciano shows no signs of slowing down. While details remain under wraps, fans can look forward to new ways of hearing his voice and stories — possibly in more intimate, conversational spaces.
