While she didn't reveal many details about her preparations, Denise gave hints of something special to look forward to at her concert.

“(You’ll see a ) different side of me and so special guests,” she said.

On November 15, Denise announced her first solo concert, "Sweet Nothings: The Denise Julia Experience," set for December 14 at the New Frontier Theater in Quezon City, offering fans an early Christmas treat.

“THRILLED TO ANNOUNCE that my very first solo concert, ‘Sweet Nothings: The Denise Julia Experience’, is happening on December 14 at The New Frontier Theater! 🎶✨,” she said in a caption.

Ticket sales began on November 16 and 17, with some tiers are already sold out. 

Denise has received praise from fans for keeping the ticket prices affordable.

The “Bad” singer also shared that her decision to lower ticket prices came from her awareness of fans' struggles to secure concert tickets.

She also dedicated her concert to her fans who have supported her from the very beginning.

Earlier in November, Denise released her latest album, Sweet Nothings: Chapter 2, a continuation from her first album with the same title.

“This chapter is me opening up more about who I am, especially after coming out earlier this year. I think my writing’s gotten a little more reckless and freer—I’m just saying what I want to say without holding back," the singer added. 

The album features nine tracks, including “thinkin’ bout u,” “(boy it’s just) attraction,” “inhibitions,” “there’s no way you’d want me back,” and singles like “bet,” “better than he does,” “twin flames” with Vietnamese-American singer thủy, “sweet nothings” with Filipino R&B singer Jay R, and “don’t matter” with R&B artist DENȲ.
