One oxytocin-fueled night, powerhouse OPM acts, and thousands of fans—all these await concertgoers at Puregold OPM Con Generations 2026, the sold-out music event that’s touted to be one of the country’s biggest and loudest celebrations of Original Pilipino Music.

Returning to the Smart Araneta Coliseum on July 11, this year's edition raises the bar with its most diverse lineup yet, bringing together SB19, Ben&Ben, Alamat, Flow G, Skusta Clee, SunKissed Lola, G22, KAIA, and XONARA in one spectacular show.

From P-pop and hip-hop to folk-pop and rock, the talents in this year’s concert showcase the many sounds shaping today’s OPM landscape. If you’re among the lucky fans who have secured tickets, here are five tips to help you make the most of your OPM Con experience.

Stay hydrated and fuel your energy. Concerts can test your endurance, especially with a packed lineup. To sustain your energy throughout the show, remember to drink plenty of water and eat a full meal before entering the venue. Kindly note that reusable tumblers, drinks, and food are not permitted inside.

Arrive early—and explore the venue. As with any major concert, expect long lines for security checks and venue entry, especially as showtime approaches. Showing up two to three hours before the concert gives you enough time to clear security, find your seat, and explore the exciting brand booths in the vicinity before the show begins.

While in the area, make time to visit the Negosyo Fan Zone located at the second floor of Puregold Cubao, where several local businesses will be offering handmade and custom fan merchandise. The fan zone will also hold fun interactive activities, perfect for commemorating the concert or supporting your favorite OPM artists. Best of all, it’s open to everyone, whether or not you have a concert ticket.

Dress for an all-night concert marathon. Prioritize comfort, as you’ll be singing, dancing, and cheering for hours. Wear breathable clothing and comfortable sneakers, and avoid bringing anything that might weigh you down. Think concert-ready, not just photo-ready.

Pack only the essentials. Bring your ticket, valid ID, phone, wallet, and a fully charged power bank. Packing light makes security screening faster and lets you move comfortably throughout the venue. To avoid delays at the entrance, review the event’s prohibited-items list before leaving home.

Finally, soak in every moment. Take photos, film your favorite chorus, and share the excitement online, but don't spend the entire evening brandishing your phone. OPM Con Generations was conceptualized to unite different generations and fandoms in one unforgettable celebration. Some of the night’s best memories will come from singing with thousands of fellow fans, discovering new artists, and witnessing once-in-a-lifetime performances that can only happen when the country’s biggest musical acts share one stage.

With history-making demand, a genre-spanning lineup, and immersive fan experiences topping it all, Puregold’s OPM Con Generations 2026, like its previous iterations, will be more than just a concert. It will be a grand celebration of our country’s evolving music, and the Filipinos who continue to make OPM thrive.
