Billie Eilish is set to stage a global online concert called “Where Do We Go? The Livestream” later this month.
The event will stream on her official website on Oct. 24 at 3 p.m. Pacific Standard Time, which is Oct. 25 at 6 a.m. in the Philippines.
The singer announced the concert on her Instagram page yesterday, Oct. 7, alongside its poster.
“[I miss] doing shows so muuuuuch [cyring emoji],” Eilish said, adding that she “can’t wait to be performing agaaaain.”

Fans can purchase a virtual ticket to the event on her site for $30 (around P1,400). Each pass also includes access to exclusive merchandise and the recorded version of the show, which will be available for 24 hours after the livestream.
Meanwhile, early ticket buyers will be able to get her merchandise at a discounted price until Oct. 12 at 12 noon in the Philippines. Profits from the sale of selected items will benefit the Crew Nation, as per Billboard. The said group supports crew members who lost jobs amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
Eilish was scheduled to perform in Manila last September as part of her “Where Do We Go?” world tour earlier this year. However, she eventually rescheduled shows after the confirmed COVID-19 cases rose across the globe.
The “Where Do We Go?” concert will feature songs from her debut studio album called “When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?” The singles in the record include “Wish You Were Gay,” “Ilomilo” and “Bad Guy.” /ra
