Fans counting down to the first-ever PERTH SANTA DEVIL'S KISS CONCERT have finally received the update they have been waiting for. Perth Tanapon and Santa Pongsapak say preparations are well underway, rehearsals have officially begun and every song has already been selected. The only thing rising faster than the excitement is the pressure they have put on themselves to deliver a show worthy of the fans who have backed them every step of the way.
The Thai stars shared the latest progress while appearing at the OPPO Reno16 Series 5G Launch Event at centralwOrld, where they spoke openly about the concert that will take place on 18 and 19 July 2026.
Rather than pretending everything is effortless, both admitted they are working flat out behind the scenes to ensure the performances feel fresh, personal and packed with memorable moments.
Perth Tanapon did not hide the fact that the upcoming fan concert comes with plenty of expectations. He revealed that every track has been finalised and rehearsals are now in full swing, but confessed he has been feeling the weight of wanting everything to be perfect.
From stage production to the smallest performance details, he wants fans to leave believing they witnessed something genuinely special instead of just another concert with fancy lights and louder speakers.
The actor also explained that this concert is different because it allows both him and Santa Pongsapak to show more of their real personalities on stage. That extra personal touch, however, also comes with extra nerves.
According to Perth, the stress has been very real, even if he has mostly kept those feelings to himself while focusing on rehearsals. After all, nobody wants to be remembered as the artist who forgot lyrics halfway through the opening number.
Meanwhile, Santa Pongsapak promised audiences a performance filled with energy, variety and surprises. He revealed that he has actively contributed ideas for the overall concert concept, hoping to create a production with different moods that keeps fans entertained from beginning to end. His goal is simple: make sure nobody leaves feeling they have watched the same performance twice.
Santa also reassured supporters that his recent minor accident has not affected his readiness for the big event. He described the incident as nothing serious and confirmed that he has now recovered completely.
Declaring himself "100 per cent ready", the actor said he is throwing everything into rehearsals and wants to give fans the very best version of himself when the curtain finally rises.
Perth, however, admitted he still keeps a careful eye on his co-star. Joking that they may need to take Santa to make merit after his string of small accidents, Perth laughed about fans wrapping Santa in bubble wrap online to keep him safe.
Santa played along with the joke, while both agreed that staying healthy before concert weekend has become the unofficial mission. Bubble wrap may not be part of the official merchandise, but some fans probably would not mind.
Beyond the concert, the pair also reminded viewers to tune into Peach and Me BL Series, which premieres on 11 July. Perth praised the chemistry between Pond Naravit and Phuwin Tangsakyuen, while Santa hinted that audiences will see relationships develop further throughout the series.
As for their own characters, Perth smiled and encouraged everyone to wait and discover what happens when the drama finally airs. For fans planning to attend, the PERTH SANTA DEVIL'S KISS CONCERT is scheduled for 18–19 July, with the venue already confirmed by organisers as part of the official event announcement.
Tickets have attracted strong interest since sales opened, reflecting the growing popularity of the on-screen duo. International fans unable to travel are also keeping a close watch for any official streaming or replay announcement.
At the time of writing, no official worldwide livestream or online viewing option has been confirmed, meaning fans should follow official channels for any updates closer to the concert dates.
Expectations are high for the show's setlist, live vocals, choreography and interactive segments, with both stars promising a concert that feels intimate despite the scale of the production.
Given Santa's involvement in shaping the concept and Perth's determination to perfect every detail, audiences can likely expect exclusive performances, heartfelt conversations with fans and perhaps a few surprises that have been carefully kept under wraps.
Fan reactions have been overwhelmingly enthusiastic, although opinions naturally vary. Many praised the pair for openly admitting the pressure they are under rather than pretending everything is easy, saying the honesty makes them even more excited to support the concert.
Others have been amused by the ongoing jokes surrounding Santa's accidental mishaps, with plenty of fans insisting someone should keep him safely wrapped until the final encore. International supporters, meanwhile, continue asking for an official livestream so they can join the celebration from abroad if tickets or travel are out of reach.
With rehearsals intensifying and confidence growing by the day, Perth Tanapon and Santa Pongsapak appear determined to make their first fan concert one of the standout events of the summer.
Whether it is the music, the surprises or simply seeing the duo share the stage together, expectations are climbing fast. Will the concert live up to the enormous anticipation?
