Air Supply to Give Out Guitars in Philippine Concerts
The iconic Australian soft-rock duo Air Supply (Graham Russell and Russell Hitchcock) is set to make their upcoming Manila concerts extra memorable by giving away signed guitars to lucky fans during their performances. The announcement came on January 12, 2026, ahead of their scheduled shows on March 14 and 15, 2026, at the New Frontier Theater.
The band, known for timeless hits like “All Out of Love,” “Making Love Out of Nothing at All,” and “Lost in Love,” will raffle off limited-edition signed acoustic guitars during each night — a special treat for their loyal Filipino fanbase, who have supported them for decades.
Tickets are still available via Ticketworld and SM Tickets, with prices ranging from P3,500 to P12,500 (VIP). Expect a night full of nostalgia, romance, and now the chance to win a piece of Air Supply memorabilia!
