Before performing Ben&Ben hit track, “Maybe the Night,” the English singer-songwriter invited vocalists Paolo and Miguel Benjamin to join him onstage.

“Grabe, we still can’t believe it. Para kaming nasa panaginip. We’re so grateful. We’re extremely happy. Sobrang kinikilig pa rin kami hanggang ngayon,” the band wrote.
They recounted memorable encounters with Ed, such as singing karaoke together, performing on his iconic round stage, and the highlight of the night, their duet of “Maybe the Night.”
“After our set, sinalubong niya kami backstage at kinamayan niya kaming lahat. Nakipag kwentuhan pa muna siya ng konti samin, na parang kaibigan lang namin,” they added.
Ben&Ben expressed that sharing the stage with “such a genuine and brilliant artist” is a “great honor,” and conversing with Ed surpasses their “wildest dreams.”
In conclusion, Ben&Ben extended their gratitude to everyone who listens to their music and their supporters, the Liwangas.
“Thank you for being with us. Ah, we love you all. We’ll be loving you ’til we’re 70 and beyond!!” they concluded, referencing Ed’s line from “Thinking Out Loud.” In addition to Ben&Ben, Calum Scott also delivered a special performance.
