Following the previous cancellation of P-pop boy band SB19’s Singapore and Bangkok shows, their Dubai concert will unfortunately no longer push through as well.
SB19 has now canceled three of its shows from their PAGTATAG! world tour.
Their Dubai show will supposedly be held Sheikh Rashid Auditorium on November 24, 2023.
SB19’s talent agency announced the news on their social media pages, expressing their apologies to the group’s fans, A’Tins, for the “inconvenience”.

“We deeply apologize to everyone inconvenienced by this cancellation. Your continuous patience and understanding are greatly appreciated,” the post read.
1Z Entertainment assured A’Tins that in the meantime, the members will continue to work hard and prepare for their performances in the future.
“Pablo, Josh, Stell, Ken, and Justin will continue to work hard and prepare for their future performances with positivity and gratitude knowing that they have your unwavering support and trust,” the agency wrote.
Amidst the announcements, “COMEBACK STRONGER MAHALIMA” dominated the top trending topics on X, as A’Tins expressed their support for their beloved artists.
It can be recalled that their fans now refer to the group as “Mahalima” after their departure from their previous talent management ShowBT, who was said to legally own the trademark for the name “SB19” as well as the rights to their songs, according to PEP.
This was then followed by the establishment of their own company in October, 1Z Entertainment, with one of its members, Pablo, as the chief executive officer.
Recent changes on the members’ social media accounts, such as removing SB19 in their IG handles, and introductions during performance have also prompted fans to use the new name.
