MANILA, PHILIPPINES – Basketball fans in the Philippines will have the chance to meet two of the sport’s biggest names, as vivo Philippines brings NBA and WNBA legends Jason Kidd and Lauren Jackson to Manila for an exclusive fan meet-and-greet on August 28, 2026.
Set to take place from 5 PM to 6 PM at the vivo Concept Store in SM Megamall Building B, the event will feature on-stage conversations, fan interactions, and an opportunity for selected fans to meet Kidd and Jackson in person.
Only 15 fans will be selected to attend the meet-and-greet, with each selected fan receiving an official photo opportunity and a signed poster.
How to join
To get a chance to be part of the event, fans simply need to:
1. Follow vivo Philippines on Facebook.
3. Use the hashtags #vivoxNBA and #vivoX300Ultra
The event will be hosted by KC Montero, who will lead conversations with the two basketball icons and give fans an opportunity to hear about their experiences in the game.
Jackson is a three-time WNBA MVP, two-time WNBA champion, five-time Olympic medalist, FIBA Women’s Basketball World Cup champion, and Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Famer. She also made her return to the Paris 2024 Olympics after an eight-year break from basketball.
Kidd, meanwhile, is an NBA champion, 10-time NBA All-Star, two-time Olympic gold medalist, and Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Famer. A celebrated point guard known for his court vision and playmaking, he later continued his career as an NBA coach.
Bringing the experience closer with the vivo X300 Ultra
The event will also spotlight the vivo X300 Ultra, vivo’s flagship smartphone equipped with Triple ZEISS Master Lenses, including an 85mm ZEISS Gimbal-Grade APO Telephoto Camera.
Designed to bring distant subjects closer, the X300 Ultra’s imaging capabilities make it well-suited for capturing moments from sporting events and other experiences where getting closer to the action isn’t always possible.
For fans who can’t make it to the vivo Concept Store on August 28, the experience will continue online through the vivo Philippines Facebook page on August 29, from 5 PM to 6 PM with the action captured using the vivo X300 Ultra.
