The Script adds third and final show on March 20 after selling out two shows in Manila





Due to overwhelming demand, the multi-award-winning, platinum-selling Irish band, The Script, announced a third and final show on Saturday, March 20, 2027, for their highly anticipated Man in the Arena World Tour. 

This follows the remarkable sell-out success of their first two concerts (March 18 and 19, 2027) at the SM Mall of Asia Arena. Presented by Wilbros Live and Midas Promotions. 

Tickets go on sale Saturday, June 13, at 10 a.m. via SMTickets.com and SM Tickets outlets nationwide.


 

This announcement comes on the heels of The Script’s frontman Danny O’Donoghue’s recent visit to Manila, where he personally promoted the upcoming world tour and reconnected with the band’s loyal Filipino fanbase. During his stay, Danny filmed a special performance video for the band’s iconic hit “The Man Who Can’t Be Moved” on the streets of Manila, recreating the spirit of one of The Script’s most beloved songs in the heart of the city.

 

Man in the Arena Tour will feature The Script’s greatest hits like “The Man Who Can’t Be Moved”, “Hall of Fame”, “Breakeven”, “Superheroes”, “For The First Time”, “If You Could See Me Now” and songs from their new album ‘The User’s Guide To Being Human’, which comes out on Aug. 14, 2026. 

 

‘The User’s Guide To Being Human’ follows 2024’s ‘Satellites’. It was a record that saw Danny attempt to process the grief that followed the tragic passing of his bandmate and friend Mark Sheehan in 2023. The record was followed by a global arena tour in which every show paid tribute to Mark.



The skyscraping ambition of ‘Man In The Arena’ lives up to its title, with a hard-hitting R&B groove suddenly bursting into a classic Script mega-chorus built for the biggest of stages: a rousing Danny delivers a typically charismatic vocal, with lyrics that affirm that the person who dares to put themselves in the spotlight is infinitely braver than anyone who criticizes from the sidelines. Its lyrics are taken, in part, from a famous speech by American President Theodore Roosevelt.

 

Danny explains, “He talks about how honors don't belong to the critics. They don't belong to the people sitting on the couch, laughing at the person in the ring stumbling and falling around. The honors belong to the one who gets in there, whose face is marred with dust and blood. I remember reading it and being like: That needs to be in a tune, the energy in it is beautiful.”
