== Development ==
In celebration of Geronimo's 15th year in showbiz industry which started in 2002 when she joined and later won the television singing contest [[Star for a Night (Philippine TV series)|Star for A Night]] that led to more success for Geronimo throughout her career. The concert was announced in February 1, 2018 prior to the surprise release of her thirteenth full lenght album of the same name. Other concert dates were announced on the night of Manila show.<ref></ref>

== Background ==
[[James Reid (actor)|James Reid]], [[Xian Lim]], [[Billy Crawford]], [[Mark Bautista]] and [[Daniel Padilla]] performed with Geronimo at her three hour show. Ronnie Liang and Sam Concepcion joined her on succeeding shows in the Philippines and abroad. During the Manila show, Geronimo's fans called "Popsters" filled the arena with red lights as a surprise for Geronimo. Geronimo herself was the first local artist to achieve this feat during her 2015 concert From the Top.<ref></ref>

== Reception ==
Despite having less promotion, the concert managed to set a new record for Geronimo. As an addition to her record as the youngest solo artist to held a show in Smart Araneta at the age of 16, Geronimo with her This 15 Me Concert broke record for the Highest Grossing Local Concert in History. The hashtag #SarahGeronioThis15MeConcert trended on [[Twitter]] Philippines at number one on the day of the concert with over 200,000 tweets. Various recorded performances from the said show also landed on [[YouTube]] Philippines trends including her performances for [[Perfectly Imperfect (Sarah Geronimo album)|''Dulo,'']] [[Tala (song)|''Tala'']], ''[[I Have Nothing]]'' and [[I Don't Want to Miss a Thing|''I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing'']] while her take for the dance challenge [[Dame Tu Cosita|''Dame tu Cosita'']] went viral on social media platforms [[Facebook]] and Twitter.

== Critical Reception ==

=== Manila ===
Writing for [[ABS-CBN News and Current Affairs|ABS-CBN News]], Sheila Reyes said that there was never a dull moment during the show and the momentum was kept up throughout the night.<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (2 for 1)</ref> Allan Policarpio of [[Inquirer.net]] praised Geronimo's ''birit''-medley number saying "Just because she doesn’t do it as much doesn’t mean she can’t handle big diva songs anymore. She sounded solid in [[(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman|''Natural Woman'']] And in ''[[I Have Nothing]]."''<ref></ref> "Sarah proves (as if we had any doubt) that she's the country's popstar princess" [[Rappler|Rappler.com]] said.<ref></ref>

=== Dubai ===
Chris Newbould from The National reviewed the show, praising Geronimo's talent and despising the event's support acts and commercialism probably due to Geronimo's constant pauses to thank the myriad sponsors and producer, "Geronimo rescues a strange evening" Newbould said. He also shared his disappointment on Geronimo not singing her songs from the film [[Miss Granny (2018 film)|''Miss Granny'']] which was recently shown in Dubai.<ref></ref>
