Gary V swept Filipino-Australians and New Zealanders off their feet in five solid two-hour concerts in March.
Mr. Pure Energy brought tears and cheers, drawing standing ovations and long lines for his meet-and-greets as he traveled from Brisbane to Wellington, New Zealand, Perth, Melbourne and Sydney.
The well-loved OPM icon moved hearts and souls of his Filipino and Australian fans with his hits “Sana Maulit Muli,” “Shout For Joy,” “Take Me Out of the Dark,” “Huwag Mo Na Sanang Isipin,” and “Di Bale Na Lang.” His rendition of Chuck Corea’s “Spain” was an awesome interpretation showcasing the vocal dexterity and amazing musical expertise of one of the Philippines’ best artists.

Sydney co-producer Liz Umali Angeles posted on Facebook, “Bringing Gary Valenciano back to Australia for the fourth time in 2025 was truly a dream come true for me, my husband Jhune Angeles and our entire AngeLiz Group & E-Talent International team. From his electrifying performances to his heartfelt testimonials, Gary V’s humility and passion continue to inspire us. Working with Genesis Management has been an absolute pleasure — they are kind, respectful, and true professionals.”
Meanwhile, official tour media partner the Philippine Times reported, “Mr. Pure Energy, Gary V, delivered a powerful and deeply moving performance in Melbourne… It was more than just a concert, it was a night that uplifted spirits and brought the community together through music.”
The Manila Genesis team who flew in with the artist was led by Gary V’s wife, the company’s chief executive officer Angeli Pangilinan-Valenciano, together with sound engineer Gerardo Corpus, technical director Stephen de La Peña, stage manager Ramil Mendoza, music director Mon Faustino, second keyboard artist Jem Florendo, lead guitarist Miguel Rañeses, bass guitarist Ritchie Ramos, drummer Jun Jun Regalado and vocalists Alyssa Quijano and Elke Saison-Ortiz.
The Gary V Live in Australia and New Zealand 2025 was mounted by over-all tour promoter E-Talent International in collaboration with Manila Genesis and GVPI Productions in partnership with various producers such as Vibe Entertainment in Brisbane, JNR8 Productions in Wellington, Strictly Epic Studio and FABS Productions in Perth, EPIC Events & Entertainment with E-Talent International in Melbourne and AngeLiz Group with E-Talent International in Sydney.
The tour was also supported by Philippine Airlines Seek Migration, Megaworld International, TFC (The Filipino Channel), ABS-CBN, ASAP, iWant and Philippine Times Australia.
Gary V is slated to return to Australia in August.
