It opened at the Smart Araneta Coliseum last February with a three-night sold-out run, followed by multiple shows across the Philippines and tour stops in Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the United States, among others. KZ supported TJ throughout the tour as a special guest. The couple officially closed the final leg in Abu Dhabi, UAE last December 2. </p><p>Beyond their generosity to their team, TJ and KZ also shared meaningful moments with fellow Filipinos during the tour. In their Auckland leg, what began as a lighthearted <em>budots</em> dance challenge turned into a fundraising effort when the audience donated, raising more than ₱100,000 for earthquake victims in various parts of the Philippines. </p><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/showbiz/music/2025/10/17/tj-monterde-on-what-makes-his-world-tour-special-binibigay-namin-yung-best-namin-talaga-1154" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>READ: TJ Monterde on what makes his world tour special: ‘Binibigay namin yung best namin talaga’  </strong></a></div><p>In a press conference last October, TJ also spoke about how the SNM40 team grew into a family over months of constant travel and rehearsals. “Every week kasi kami magkasama so hinahanap hanap na namin ang isa’t isa, literal. Pag wala kaming SNM sa week na yun or mga two weeks na, yun, parang may mali. Maghahanapan kami. Mag-mi-meet up kami. Sobrang naging close na din kami talaga na halos lahat ng mga plano namin sa buhay, naging super close na rin kami,” he shared. </p><p>Following the success of <em>Sarili Nating Mundo,</em> TJ and KZ are set to return to the Smart Araneta Coliseum for their <em>In Between</em> four-night concert on February 6 to 9, 2026. The first three nights have already been sold out. Audience can buy their tickets for the Day 4 starting December 15 via TicketNet.  </p>
