MANILA, Philippines – Concert promoter KARPOS has added more seats to the sold-out 2025 concert of American alternative indie band Cigarettes After Sex. The band is set to take the Manila stage on January 14, 2025, at the SM Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City, for their X’s World Tour.
The addition of the General Admission (GA) section to the concert was announced on Friday, October 25, and went on sale at 12 pm on the same day. GA tickets are priced at P2,840. As of this writing, tickets are still available via SM Tickets.
Each person is limited to six tickets per transaction.
The show is open to attendees aged 13 and above. Minors, pregnant women, and PWDs will be required to sign a waiver upon entry into the venue.
Similar to KARPOS’ past shows, one ticket-bearing adult may only accompany a maximum of three minors aged 13 to 17 in the standing section. In the reserved seating sections, however, one ticket-bearing adult can account for a total of four minors.
This comes months after the 2025 Manila concert was first announced in late February, with tickets going on sale to the general public in early March.
