We’re almost there, BLOOMs! The stage is all set for BINI’s most anticipated international performance yet.
On April 10, 2026, the whole world will witness Pinoy pop (P-pop) excellence and Filipina pride at their finest as the “Nation’s Girl Group” makes waves at the Coachella music festival. While we count down the days to this next-level feat, we’ve also been tuning in to the girls’ “side quests” in Los Angeles, California, in between rehearsals for their upcoming 45-minute show.

This once-in-a-lifetime achievement is no coincidence. Countless hardships, sacrifices, risks, manifestations, and breakthroughs led up to this moment, and now, it’s finally coming to fruition. We couldn’t be prouder of Aiah, Colet, Maloi, Gwen, Stacey, Mikha, Jhoanna, and Sheena for making it happen, together with their ever-supportive BLOOMs who’ve believed in them since day one.
BINI will grace the Coachella stage alongside hundreds of award-winning international artists. We don’t know the exact details of the girls’ set, but we reckon they’ll go to great lengths to raise our flag and introduce Filipino music to a crowd of thousands.
It’s high time Coachella (and the rest of the world) falls in love with BINI and their colorful discography—an astounding staple of Filipino culture and the voices that fuel it. Here are eight hit songs by the P-pop powerhouse that we hope to hear live at the major music festival this weekend:
“Pantropiko”
What better song to bring to Coachella than BINI’s breakthrough hit for all seasons? “Pantropiko” opened numerous doors for the group, which prompted their meteoric rise to stardom. The song’s bright, summery vibes, which even got a show-stopping upgrade at BINI’s concerts, make an excellent addition to Coachella’s dynamic atmosphere.
“Salamin, Salamin”
Catchy, cutesy, and irresistibly charming, “Salamin, Salamin” captures BINI’s bubblegum pop sound to the best of its abilities. Follow the girls as they muse over love and adoration to an addictive dance-pop beat, paired with trendy choreography that had the entire country grooving.
“Shagidi”
“Shagidi” brings an edge and a pop of playfulness to BINI’s music that we don’t typically hear from the girls. As their special world tour single, this punchy and powerful anthem puts a P-pop spin on the classic Filipino children’s game, transforming it into an energetic dance craze that’ll give you Last Song Syndrome (LSS) for days on end.
“Zero Pressure”
“Zero Pressure” is a gem in BINI’s first English EP, BINIverse. The song signaled a brave new era for the girls as artists—one that set them free of any negativity, doubt, and judgment. You can never go wrong with this empowering track and its motivational lyrics, which are bound to resonate with us even better on a world-class stage.
“Strings”
BINI came in swinging with “Strings.” Arguably the group’s most intense single yet, they didn’t shy away from experimenting with new genres that push the envelope of their artistry. “Strings” embodies the girls’ unshakeable hearts and unwavering passion, strongly proving that they’ll stop at nothing to make their dreams come true. Nothing is impossible for them, especially with their fans by their side, and this song shows exactly that.
“Na Na Na”
We love a good throwback and kilig overload from our “best girls.” “Na Na Na” is a serotonin boost personified, portraying the thrill of an innocent crush that brings us back to our carefree high school days. If this single can easily be the theme song to our favorite youthful romantic comedies, then it surely deserves a spot in BINI’s Coachella song list, too.
“Unang Kilig”
We can’t have a blast with BINI at Coachella without anticipating performances of songs from their upcoming six-track EP, Signals. One of which is the city pop-infused lead single “Unang Kilig,” which took us on a journey through the girls’ humble beginnings. The BINI girls know a thing or two about telling stories from the heart, and “Unang Kilig” showcases that exceptionally.
Besides “Unang Kilig,” we might also witness a live performance of “Blush,” the girls’ latest summer single, to be released with the rest of the Signals EP tomorrow, April 9, 2026.
“Huwag Muna Tayong Umuwi”
No matter how much BINI’s music evolves over the years, “Huwag Muna Tayong Umuwi” will always have a special place in our hearts. This song beams with emotional depth that echoes through the girls’ rich tones and crystal-clear vocals. We can all agree that Filipinos love a good ballad that hits us right in the feels, so it’s only fair that we bring one to Coachella in true “Pinoy pride” fashion.
Honorable Mention: “Lagi”
We love a full-circle moment! “Lagi” is living proof that manifestations will always work, as long as you put your heart into them. Will we finally hear the lines, “Luzon, Visayas ba, o Coachella kaya” live at the actual event? We’ll have to stay tuned to find out.
