Pinoy Playlist Music Festival 2025 Returns at BGC Arts Center This November to Celebrate All Things OPM
The Pinoy Playlist Music Festival (PPMF) is back this November 28 to 30, 2025, at the BGC Arts Center, bringing together generations of Filipino artists and fans for three days of unforgettable music.
A Festival of Filipino Sounds and Stories
With the theme “Halo-halo, Sapin-sapin, Sabay-sabay,” PPMF 2025 captures what makes Pinoy music truly unique. It’s a blend of flavors and styles (halo-halo), layers of influences across time (sapin-sapin), and a shared rhythm that connects all of us (sabay-sabay).
From heartfelt ballads and pop hits to bold, genre-bending performances, this year’s lineup spans across three days and three stages, the Globe Auditorium, Zobel de Ayala Recital Hall, and Sun Life Amphitheater.
The 2025 Artist Lineup
Get ready to sing along and groove with an exciting mix of timeless legends and rising stars, including:
KIKX and Day One, Somatosonic, The Brat Pack, Gab Cabangon, The Bloomfields, Tres Marias, Trina Belamide, Dingdong Avanzado, Bugoy, and many more.
Honoring Icons: The Ryan Cayabyab Awardees
Each year, the festival recognizes artists whose work reflects excellence in composition, arrangement, and performance, values championed by National Artist for Music Ryan Cayabyab.
The 2025 Ryan Cayabyab Awardees are:
- Homer Flores
- Lorrie Ilustre
- APO Hiking Society
Special performances by Zsa Zsa Padilla, Nicole Asencio, The Itchyworms, and more will pay tribute to these honorees. The festival will also feature a heartfelt segment, “Musik-A-laala,” honoring the legacy of National Artist for Film and Broadcast Arts Nora Aunor and Ms. Pilita Corrales through special tribute performances.
Conversations That Matter
