Fans of punk, rock, and emo are in for a treat as The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, Dashboard Confessional, and Faber Drive come together for Playback Music Festival 2026.

After the success of its recent events, Playback continues to ride the wave of nostalgia. In 2025, the festival featured Boys Like Girls, The Click Five, and Secondhand Serenade, delivering a four-hour throwback experience that brought fans back to their emo and pop-punk days.

The 2026 edition promises the same high-energy atmosphere, with full sets and fan-favorite hits from this year’s lineup. The shows will take place on May 8 at SM Mall of Asia Arena and May 9 at Waterfront Cebu City Hotel and Casino.

Presented by Super Awesome Productions, Playback has grown into one of the go-to festivals for fans who want to relive the music of their youth—loud, emotional, and unforgettable.

Tickets are now available via SM Tickets.
