As GMGP’s official partner for the 2025 season, UnionBank continues to elevate the local entertainment scene, offering exclusive perks for UnionBank Credit and Debit Cardholders. These benefits include early access to tickets, special discounts, and VIP experiences.

This partnership further strengthens the bank’s position in the entertainment sector. Since April 2023, UnionBank has sponsored 15 exclusive shows at major theatres, stadiums, and arenas across the Philippines.

“We’re thrilled to continue giving our cardholders exclusive access to world-class productions, made possible through our long-term partnership with GMG Productions.

With a legacy spanning over 15 years, GMGP has consistently raised the bar for Manila’s entertainment offerings, presenting iconic productions such as CATS, MATILDA the Musical, and The Phantom of the Opera. The partnership between UnionBank and GMGP began in April 2023 with Hamilton, followed by Miss Saigon and SIX The Musical.

This collaboration continues to create unique opportunities for audiences while strengthening the local entertainment landscape,” said Carlos Candal, CEO of GMG Productions. “With UnionBank’s support, we look forward to delivering another season of exceptional productions and exclusive experiences for their cardholders.”

In recent weeks, GMGP has been teasing its followers and local theater fans with its upcoming 2025 roster of shows. On 17 January, GMG premiered a teaser video during the Wicked Singalong, much to the crowd’s delight and eager predictions.
