TJ Monterde, IV of Spades, Loonie, and More to Perform at the 11th Wish Music Awards

The Wish Music Awards (WMAs) are set to welcome a brand-new era on Sunday, January 11, 2026, at the Araneta Coliseum. 

Beyond honoring winners, the 11th edition of the WMAs continues its legacy of providing Filipino artists the live stage they deserve. The roster of performers — headlined by TJ Monterde, IV of Spades, and Loonie — brings together a wide range of acts, staying true to the event theme of breaking boundaries.

Returning to the WMAs, TJ Monterde proves to be one of today’s biggest names in OPM, with sold-out concerts and a string of hits to boot. IV of Spades reaffirmed their influence on modern Filipino music when they returned as a four-piece act, marking their comeback with their sophomore album “ANDALUCIA” and a two-day MOA show.

While he remains a force in hip-hop, Loonie continues to explore the scene with hit collaborations from Frizzle Anne and Arthur Nery, among others. Meanwhile, G22 and Over October have further established their names — with G22 debuting their first-ever studio album “The Dissection of Eve” and Over October releasing new tracks, including the WMA-nominated “Bitin.”

The past year also saw the rise of fresh acts, such as Earl Agustin and Amiel Sol. These two artists have both dominated the charts with tracks like “Sa Bawat Sandali” and “Tibok.” fitterkarma, the rising rockers behind the songs “Pag-Ibig ay Kanibalismo II” and “Kalapastangan,” is also set to make their WMA debut.

The 11th WMAs will be hosted by Christian Bautista and Karylle, with live streaming available on Wish 107.5’s YouTube and TikTok accounts. The event will also have a live telecast on UNTV UHF Channel 37.
