‘ONE PIECE Music Symphony’ Sets Sail for Manila in January 2026

ONE PIECE Music Symphony heads to Manila for a one-night performance on January 11, 2026, at The Theatre at Solaire. Presented by Film Concerts PH, the concert brings the official ONE PIECE Music Symphony experience to the Philippines, combining live orchestral performance with scenes from the long-running anime series of all time.

The program features music by composer Kohei Tanaka, performed live by 71 musicians from the Filharmonika Orchestra. A guest conductor, to be announced by the organizers, will lead the ensemble through a set that spans the emotional highs and pirate battle-ready momentum of the series. High-definition clips from the anime will play on screen in sync with the orchestra, turning crazy moments of the Blue Sea into a shared live experience for longtime fans and newcomers alike.

The Manila stop will include newly arranged pieces created for the current world tour. Among them is the energetic opening theme “UUUUUS!” alongside familiar favorites such as “Haha naru Umi” (Mother Sea), “Sekai no ichiban oden da!!,” and “Ore no saikouchiten,” known to fans as Luffy’s Gear 5 theme. The selections trace the series’ evolution, from early adventures to its most recent arcs.

Premiering in 2013, ONE PIECE Music Symphony remains the only official concert production for the franchise. The show was arranged in collaboration with Tanaka and licensed by Toei Animation. With more than 500 million copies in circulation, One Piece holds the Guinness World Record as the best-selling manga series of all time.

Tickets for ONE PIECE Music Symphony are available through TicketWorld and authorized outlets nationwide.
