SB19’s 1Z Entertainment to hold first One Zone Fest with XONARA and J2X
1Z Entertainment, the company SB19 founded, is launching One Zone Fest, a two-day festival at the Smart Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City on October 24 and 25, 2026. It spotlights 1Z’s own artists, and SB19 is on both days: members perform as soloists on day one, and day two is the group’s eighth anniversary fan meet. 1Z announced the dates on August 18 and revealed the lineup in September.
“THE ZONE IS GETTING A WEEKEND OF ITS OWN,” 1Z wrote in its lineup announcement.
The name comes from SB19
The “Zone” in the name traces back to SB19’s own tagline, “get in the zone.” At the festival’s media conference, Pablo, SB19’s leader and 1Z’s president, said he was happy to see years of hard work paying off. Justin said day one lets the members show their individual growth.
Day one is the whole 1Z roster
On October 24, SB19 members Josh Cullen, Felip, Stell, Pablo, and Justin perform as soloists. XONARA and J2X are on the same show, and 1Z says there will be special performances. The artists have hinted at special collaborations and subunit performances but kept details quiet.
Day two is SB19’s anniversary
October 25 is SB19’s eighth anniversary fan meet. Their fandom is called A’TIN, and the group has a record to point to: SB19 was the first Southeast Asian act nominated at the Billboard Music Awards.
This year has kept them busy. They closed out their Wakas at Simula series with The Trilogy Finale concert on April 18. They headlined the two-day Aurora Music Festival Clark alongside IV of Spades and Ben&Ben. On July 11 they closed the sold-out OPM Con Generations 2026 at the Araneta Coliseum, the same venue as this festival.
The newer acts
XONARA is the first girl group under 1Z. It made its first appearance at SB19’s April 18 concert and debuted in May with the single “Tabi.” Its first time on the Araneta stage came at OPM Con in July. The group says it wants to focus on hip-hop and R&B.
J2X is the stage name of Coach Jay, SB19’s choreographer. He introduced himself as a 1Z artist at that same April 18 concert, the day his single “AKONGAPALASI” came out. He is self-taught and leans toward rap and hip-hop. He has said SB19 gave him full creative freedom on the music video, and that their support felt genuine.
Tickets
Tickets are sold separately for each day through TicketNet, at the same prices for both. Official prices run from PHP 1,900 (general admission) to PHP 14,500 (VIP seated), before ticketing charges. A Metrobank cardholder presale for Day 1 ran on September 29, and general sale for both days opened September 30. TicketNet lists show times of 5 PM on October 24 and 6 PM on October 25.
