On August 9, 2025, the SM Mall of Asia Arena was transformed into a dazzling fusion of cutting-edge technology and powerhouse Filipino musical talent. Acer Day 2025, themed “Break A Limit”, wasn’t just another annual tech event—it became an unforgettable celebration of ambition, artistry, and innovation.
From start to finish, the night pulsed with electrifying performances, emotional moments, and groundbreaking tech showcases, proving once again why Acer Day remains one of the Philippines’ most anticipated brand events.
Acer Day Turns Nine—Bigger, Louder, and More Inspiring Than Ever
Now in its ninth year, Acer Day has become a tradition for tech lovers and music fans alike. But 2025’s edition pushed the envelope even further. With an estimated 50,000 attendees—a mix of live audience and online viewers—the event broke attendance records, turning a tech showcase into what felt like the year’s biggest pop concert.
This wasn’t just about unveiling the latest gadgets. Acer crafted a multi-sensory experience that blended music, technology, and storytelling. It was a message to every attendee: there are no limits except the ones you set for yourself.
A Star-Studded Lineup That Lit Up the Night
The stage was set for an iconic night of music, headlined by the Popstar Royalty herself, Sarah Geronimo. Known for her powerhouse vocals and commanding stage presence, Sarah G opened her set to a thunderous ovation, reminding everyone why she continues to reign as one of the country’s most beloved artists.
Then came SB19, the undisputed kings of P-pop, whose explosive choreography and harmonies sent the crowd into a frenzy. Each song felt like a cultural celebration, proving why the group has become a global phenomenon.
Adding a fresh spark to the lineup was G22, one of P-pop’s rising girl groups. Their performance was bursting with energy and youthful confidence, giving fans a taste of the genre’s exciting future.
The night also celebrated Original Pinoy Music (OPM) legends and favorites. Itchyworms, with their infectious melodies and sing-along anthems, brought nostalgia and joy to the arena. KMKZ delivered an intense, high-energy set, while Maki charmed the audience with his heartfelt ballads and smooth vocals.
Celebrities, Ambassadors, and Acerpure Power
Beyond the music, Acer’s ambassadors brought an extra layer of star power. The PBB Celebrity Collab housemates, now representing Acerpure, graced the event with their presence.
Familiar faces like Brent Manalo, Mika Salamanca, Ralph De Leon, Will Ashley, Esnyr Ranollo, Charlie Fleming, Klarisse De Guzman, and Shuvee Etrata delighted fans, showing that Acer Day was more than a concert—it was a gathering of the country’s most influential personalities in music, entertainment, and digital media.
Unforgettable On-Stage Collaborations
Two performances defined the night’s magic. First, SB19 and G22 joined forces for a powerhouse rendition of “8tonball.” The collaboration wasn’t just about music—it was a display of unity between P-pop’s reigning champions and its next-generation contenders.
Then came a moment that will be talked about for years: the first-ever live performance of “Umaaligid”, a breathtaking duet between SB19 and Sarah Geronimo. The blending of their voices, combined with stunning visuals and arena-wide singalongs, created a goosebump-inducing atmosphere that fans will replay in their minds for a long time.
Closing the night, Acer debuted its anthem, “Ace Your World”, a rousing finale that perfectly encapsulated the event’s theme—encouraging everyone to push beyond personal limits and believe in their potential.
When Technology Meets Music
While the concert was the star attraction, Acer made sure the tech side of the event shone just as brightly.
The arena’s concourse transformed into an interactive tech playground, where guests got to try Acer’s latest innovations—from high-performance laptops for gamers and creatives, to eco-friendly devices that aligned with the company’s sustainability initiatives.
These hands-on experiences reinforced the night’s message: technology isn’t just about specs and screens—it’s a tool for empowerment, creativity, and breaking limits in everyday life.
Words That Moved the Crowd
Acer Philippines’ Managing Director Sue Ong-Lim delivered a message that resonated deeply:
“To ‘Break A Limit,’ you need to surpass your personal best.”
Her words reminded everyone that limitations are often self-imposed, and that with the right tools—and the right mindset—you can achieve more than you imagined.
Marketing Manager Princess Laosantos expanded on this vision, framing the night as a celebration of a future where innovation defines boundaries, not the other way around.
An Audience Fueled by Passion
From the moment the gates opened, the energy was palpable. Fans came prepared—waving banners, wearing merchandise, and chanting the names of their favorite acts.
Inside the arena, the atmosphere felt like a festival. The cheers, the flashing light sticks, the sea of camera phones capturing every beat—it all contributed to a shared sense of community.
