The announcement was made on Thursday, June 23 by both Eilish herself on her Instagram account and by Live Nation Philippines, the concert promoter for her Manila leg of the tour. This came to the surprise of fans of the artist since there will only be a little over a month before Billie Eilish makes her way to Manila. This is in comparison to other international artists such as Justin Bieber and KPop artists such as Red Velvet who have a leeway of a couple of months before their arrival.
