The P-pop genre and arcade culture are officially teaming up as XONARA, one of the girl groups making waves in the local music scene, join Timezone Philippines as its newest brand ambassadors.

Officially announced on August 13, 2026 via social media, the seven-member girl group composed of Eurekah, Tin, Dominique, Ella, Namie, Lei, and Megumi will headline a one-year partnership with the arcade designed to bring fans closer to the girls through exclusive perks, social content, merchandise, and in-store activation under #TimeXONARA.

Kicking off the partnership, arcade-goers can enjoy an exclusive Buy 250, Get 500 credits bonus on the Timezone Fun App. Fans can use the code XONARA to claim the offer. Official Timezone x XONARA photocards are also set to drop on August 25, 2026, giving fans another collectible to add to their growing collections.

For XONARA, the partnership comes full circle, with the members sharing that Timezone has been a familiar part of their childhoods. Marking their new roles as brand ambassadors especially meaningful, Ella stated, “Timezone is a place that so many of us grew up going to, so becoming one of its brand ambassadors feels really surreal.”

Namie echoed the sentiment, calling the collaboration, “a full-circle moment” and expressing gratitude to Timezone for trusting XONARA.

General Manager of Timezone Philippines Raffy Prats Jr. emphasized the P-pop girl group’s refreshing energy and growing influence as reasons for the ambassadorship. “XONARA’s vibrant energy, strong connection with young audiences, and authentic love for Timezone make them a natural fit for our brand,” he shares.

The partnership also taps into the ever-supportive spirit of P-pop fans. As SB19 leader and 1Z Entertainment President Pablo puts it, “P-pop fandom has always been participatory. Fans don’t just listen, they show up, they collect, they bring their friends. Timezone gives that energy. We’re excited for XONARA to meet fans in a space built for exactly that kind of shared fun.”

Debuted on May 15, 2026 under 1Z Entertainment, XONARA recently released their second official single, “PULA,” last August 6, 2026.
