The band have yet to announce other dates in Southeast Asia.

The band previously appeared alongside Dua Lipa, Daya, DNCE, Zara Larsson and 5 Seconds of Summer at the sophomore edition of the In The Mix Festival in Manila in 2017, with the previous edition of the festival featuring the likes of The 1975, Third Eye Blind, Panic! At The Disco, James Bay, Elle King, and Twin Pines.

Two Door Cinema Club released their fifth studio album ‘Keep On Smiling’ digitally in September last year, with physical editions released on November 4. Written and produced by the TDCC during and coming out of the COVID-enforced lockdowns, ‘Keep On Smiling’ also features additional production from Jacknife Lee (The Killers, Taylor Swift, Bloc Party) and Marguerat (Halsey, Lana Del Rey, George Ezra).

In a three-star review of the LP for NME, Rhian Daly noted that the results were mixed, writing, “If Two Door are to hold onto anything from ‘Keep On Smiling’, it should be the playful, curious moments that convey a sense of fun, even if that’s deceptive. When things get serious on this record, the band stumble and the smiles begin to slip.”
