FILIPINO TV STARS COCO MARTIN & JULIA MONTES SET TO VISIT KENYA

After years of enchanting African audiences with its TV shows, ABS-CBN is making history by bringing its biggest stars Coco Martin and Julia Montes to Kenya for the very first time.

The much-anticipated Kapamilya Live in Kenya event, set for June 28, 2025, at Nairobi Cinema, marks a groundbreaking moment for ABS-CBN as it celebrates the deep connection between Filipino storytelling and its loyal African fans.

For over two decades, ABS-CBN’s dramas have captured the hearts of Kenyan viewers, weaving tales of love, resilience, and family that resonate across continents. Now, fans will finally get the chance to meet the stars behind their favourite shows in an unforgettable live experience.

Coco Martin, the action hero of FPJ’s Batang Quiapo (internationally known as Gangs of Manila), and Julia Montes, the beloved star of Saving Grace, will get to meet their Kenyan supporters.

ABS-CBN’s presence in Africa spans over 20 years, with hit TV series airing since 2003. Coco’s FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano (Brothers) became a continental sensation from 2021-2023, while Batang Quiapo now airs in 41 African countries. Julia’s dramas, including Ikaw Lamang, Doble Kara, and Asintado, have also won over Kenyan viewers.

Recent ABS-CBN hits like Can’t Buy Me Love, Lavender Fields, and The Broken Marriage Vow continue to strengthen the bond between Filipino and African audiences.
