Filipino superstar Bamboo brought his country to Dubai with a highly anticipated performance at the Jubilee Stage tonight (11 February) at Expo 2020 Dubai.
The singer-songwriter said his concert was “bringing people home” to the Philippines and urged the crowd to sing and dance along as he belted out his hits, as the country celebrated its Expo 2020 Dubai National Day today with an exciting array of cultural performances.
Bamboo said: “I have been to Dubai many times already, but this is the first time I’m [performing] at Expo 2020 Dubai. I like how we are here to connect. It’s an honour to represent my country. Every show I do out of the [love for my] country. I always consider myself an ambassador.”
The wide programme of events to mark the National Day attracted an impressive number of the almost 700,000 Filipinos who currently call the UAE home.
