Heaven will be really on A1 fans’ side this upcoming Valentine's season because the beloved British-Norwegian boy band is also performing in Cebu!

The iconic pop group, known for their timeless hits is also coming to Cebu this February 14, 2025 at Waterfront Cebu City Hotel & Casino, Cebu City, aside from the Manila leg of their Valentine’s Tour 2025 on February 15, 2025, at the New Frontier Theater, Araneta Center, Quezon City.

Following the success of their TWENTY FIVE concert tour in 2023, A1 is ready to give their Filipino audience another unforgettable night filled with nostalgia and excitement.

A1, consisting of Paul Marazzi, Christian Ingebrigtsen, Mark Read, and Ben Adams, will once again take the stage to perform their classic hits, including crowd favorites such as Like a Rose, Everytime, Same Old Brand New You, and Caught in the Middle. Filipino fans have always shared a deep connection with A1’s music, and this Valentine’s show promises to bring back the magic of the 90s and early 2000s that fans have cherished for years.


This time, however, A1 has something even more exciting to share with their fans. Mark Read revealed that the band has been hard at work producing their long-awaited new album. He teases, "Since our last visit to the Philippines, we've been busy working on our long-awaited new album, and production is in the final stages. We have 15 new songs that we're currently putting the finishing touches to, for what is shaping up to be an incredible album, so expect some exciting teasers in the show.”

Alsons Dev Expands with Nurtura, Offering Quality Homes for Young Families

Grow your family, grow your future. Quality homes designed for families by Nurtura Land and Home.

DAVAO CITY, Philippines — Finding a home that fits your growing family's ever-changing needs and budgets is a vital step towards stability. Mindanao-based real estate developer Alsons Development and Investment Corporation (Alsons Dev) has adapted to these needs through its mid-cost housing brand, Nurtura Land and Home.

Recognizing the importance of creating homes catering to evolving living standards and value for money, Nurtura Land and Home offers thoughtfully designed and expertly constructed homes that prioritize quality, adaptive design, and cost-effectiveness.

"Drawing from decades of experience in developing thriving communities in Davao City, Alsons Dev takes pride in creating spaces where families with diverse aspirations and lifestyles can thrive. Our Nurtura brand embodies this promise with family-centric designs that ensure safety, comfort, and great value, providing the perfect environment for families to grow and flourish," said Alsons Dev President and CEO Miguel Dominguez.

Narra Park Residences: 
Where efficient planning meets quality living

Narra Park Residences, the maiden project of Nurtura Land & Home by Alsons Dev, was recognized as the Best Housing Development in Metro Davao at the PropertyGuru Philippines Property Awards for both 2023 and 2024.

Narra Park Residences stands tall as a testament to Alsons Dev's vision of creating harmonious living spaces at an accessible price point.

Recently recognized as the Best Housing Development in Mindanao at the 2024 PropertyGuru Philippines Property Awards, Narra Park Residences Avia continues Alsons Dev’s commitment to providing vibrant living spaces for more families in the SOX Region.

Its counterpart, Narra Park Residences Avia, which is located within SOCCSKSARGEN's very first mixed-use development, Avia Estate in Alabel, Sarangani, also carries the signature qualities of Alsons Dev's residential communities under its Nurtura brand.

The variety of housing units for both Nurtura projects—from bungalows to two-story homes—cater to diverse preferences and family needs. These homes feature compact yet space-efficient layouts to maximize functionality and ensure every square foot is usable. Also, the generous lot sizes allow for a garage and garden, ideal for growing families.

"It all begins with strategic space planning," says Tricia A. Dizon, a Makati-based interior decorator with whom Alsons Dev frequently collaborates. "Alsons Dev's in-house planners put a lot of thought into the future homeowners' needs and preferences. We work together to conceptualize and determine the purpose of each space and how prospective buyers intend to use it in everyday living. This becomes our guiding star in creating functional and efficient homes tailored for future homeowners."

Alsons Dev's commitment to efficient planning also extends to construction quality. Every project undergoes rigorous inspections, ensuring each home meets the highest safety standards.

"Alsons Dev's commitment to excellence is evident from concept to execution," said Greric Santos, proprietor of Greco Construction who worked on the Narra Park Residence projects in Davao and Sarangani. "I can vouch for their high standards for quality because I see how their Construction Management team enforces them rigorously on contractors like myself.”

Designed for a balanced lifestyle


Nurtura Land and Home builds communities that go beyond just homes, offering expansive outdoor spaces for today's modern families


Beyond developing houses, Narra Park Residences in Davao and Avia Estate also offer a community-centric environment. Both developments feature expansive green spaces and large parks that encourage social interaction. Family-friendly amenities like pools and multi-purpose courts not only promote an active lifestyle within the neighborhood but also foster a sense of belonging and connection.

The resident's safety and peace of mind are given top priority, as seen in the 24/7 guarded entrance, perimeter walls, and dual gates that double as access points to essential establishments. In the case of Narra Park Residences Avia, a public safety and security complex that integrates police, fire, and emergency response stations is being built close to the residential area, ensuring a secure and peaceful living environment.

Arch. Patrick Tan, Principal Architect of PCTAN Architects and Associates and longtime collaborator of Alsons Dev attests, "We are proud to partner with Alsons Dev in creating vibrant communities. Our collaboration has led to the design of amenities that foster social connections, enrich residents' lives, and serve the larger community, like the Alabel Public Safety and Security Complex in Avia Estate. Alsons Dev's commitment to thoughtful development sets a high standard for the industry."

Nurturing generations with lasting homes

Through people-centric developments and thoughtfully designed communities like Narra Park Residences, Alsons Dev cements its leadership in Mindanao real estate, offering exceptional living experiences to the mid-cost market through Nurtura Land & Home.
