On 3 December 2025, the Newport Performing Arts Theater will once again light up with timeless melodies as Gerald Santos, the country’s “Prince of Ballad,” takes center stage in “GERALD SANTOS: DREAMS.” Presented as a celebration of music, passion, and purpose, this concert marks a defining moment in Gerald’s career — a journey through the songs that shaped his artistry and the dreams that continue to inspire him. Here are five compelling reasons why you shouldn’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime musical event.

1. A triumphant return of the Prince of Ballad

Gerald Santos has long been regarded as one of the finest voices of his generation — a singer whose pure, emotional tone and powerful range have earned him the title “Prince of Ballad.” After a string of acclaimed performances both in the Philippines and abroad, including his notable stint as Thuy in the international production of Miss Saigon, Gerald returns to the local concert scene with a show that is both personal and inspiring. “DREAMS” isn’t just a concert — it’s a musical diary that chronicles his growth as an artist, filled with the very songs that defined his journey from a hopeful dreamer to one of OPM’s most respected performers.

2. An unforgettable lineup of guest stars

The concert is set to become a gathering of musical royalty, featuring an all-star cast of special guests who each bring their own unique brilliance to the stage. Legendary OPM crooner Marco Sison will share his timeless hits, while international theater star Na Young Jeon, known for her stellar performances in Miss Saigon and Les Misérables, will add a global touch to the evening. Powerhouse vocalists Jed Madela, “The Voice” of world-class precision, and Jona, the country’s fearless diva, promise to deliver unforgettable duets and solo numbers. Adding youthful flair and versatility are Failene Malijan, Kim Hewitt, and Andrea Gutierrez, whose performances will keep audiences captivated from start to finish.

3. A tribute to Filipino music legends

In what promises to be one of the night’s most emotional segments, Gerald will honor OPM icons who have recently passed away, celebrating their legacy through heartfelt renditions of their greatest hits. The show will also include a special tribute to the one and only Superstar, Ms. Nora Aunor, whose influence has shaped generations of Filipino artists. Through this homage, Gerald bridges the past and present of Philippine music — reminding audiences that dreams are built upon the foundations laid by those who came before.

4. A concert with heart and purpose

Beyond its musical brilliance, “GERALD SANTOS: DREAMS” carries a message of compassion. The concert will benefit two meaningful causes — the Good Samaritan Foundation of the Mary Mediatrix Medical Center and the COURAGE Movement — both aligned with Gerald’s advocacy of using his talent for social good. It’s more than entertainment; it’s music that heals, uplifts, and gives back. Audiences can take pride in knowing that every ticket purchased helps make a difference in the lives of others.

5. A celebration of dreams and the power of music

“DREAMS” is more than a concert title — it’s a reflection of Gerald’s philosophy as an artist and a person. Each song in the lineup tells a story of ambition, perseverance, faith, and love. Whether you’re a long-time fan or discovering his artistry for the first time, this show promises to leave you inspired to chase your own dreams. Backed by stunning production, heartfelt storytelling, and the sincerity that defines every Gerald Santos performance, the night is set to be both sonically and emotionally unforgettable.
