Dua Lipa staged the Philippine leg of her Radical Optimism tour at the Philippine Arena in Bulacan on Wednesday, November 13.

"They told me tonight was gonna be loud. You're the loudest crowd we had so far!" Dua told thousands of Filipino fans at her concert organized by Live Nation Philippines. 

The singer expressed her elation to be back in the country, six years since her last show here.

"I'm very excited to be here tonight. It's been a very long time since the last time I've performed here in Manila. Thank you for being with us here tonight," she stated.

The Grammy-winning artist added: "Thank you so much, thank you for your energy, thank you for being so loud all the time. This is so much fun. It's been so long since I've been here, it's been six years and so to be welcomed so warmly means a lot."

Dua also encouraged the fans to savor every moment in the concert. "I think one thing for me that has always been important is that no matter what's happening outside of these four walls, that tonight is just us... We're here together. I wish you just enjoy that and stay present in the moment."

The singer performed her various hits in the concert including "Training Season, "One Kiss," "Break My Heart," "Levitating," "These Walls, "Be the One," "Pretty Please," and "Houdini," among others.

Dua remarked that performing on stage is a dream come true for her. "I feel like I get spoiled every time I come up on stage because I have to pinch myself and be like: 'Wow this is my job.' I get up and sing songs and people sing with me and it's really fun and you guys made it possible and the people who are on stage with me made that possible."
