This album represents years of hard work, discipline, and belief, and we wanted it to feel alive and heartfelt,&quot; SB19 added.</p><p>SB19 has announced the official conclusion of their landmark world tour with “Wakas At Simula: The Trilogy Concert Finale,” which is set to happen on April 18 at the SMDC Festival Grounds. Tickets are anticipated to go on sale in February.</p><div><strong><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/showbiz/events/2026/1/2/sb19-to-stage-wakas-at-simula-the-trilogy-concert-finale-in-april-1611" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">SB19 to stage &#x27;Wakas at Simula: The Trilogy Concert Finale&#x27; in April</a></strong></div><div><strong><br/></strong></div><div><strong>RELATED VIDEOS:</strong></div><div><br/></div><div><strong><span class="fr-video fr-deletable fr-fvc fr-dvb fr-draggable" contenteditable="false" draggable="true"><iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/vqtvhwW_PkY?autoplay=1&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;rel=0" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen="" class="fr-draggable"></iframe></span><span class="fr-video fr-deletable fr-fvc fr-dvb fr-draggable" contenteditable="false" draggable="true"><iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ngHuVFk3U7E?autoplay=1&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;rel=0" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen="" class="fr-draggable"></iframe></span><span class="fr-video fr-deletable fr-fvc fr-dvb fr-draggable" contenteditable="false" draggable="true"><iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/FZnOMPmN21I?autoplay=1&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;rel=0" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen="" class="fr-draggable"></iframe></span></strong><br/></div>
