The Premier Volleyball League on Tour (shortened as PVL on Tour and known since 2026 as the PVL on Tour Showdown) is a series of matches hosted by the Premier Volleyball League outside of Metro Manila.

The Tour was originally held as a series of exhibition games in 2017 before being integrated into the regular schedule. In 2025, it became its own tournament held as part of the league's preseason, before returning to its roots in 2026 with a more experimental ruleset.

As a series

2017 season (exhibition series)

From October 8 to 18, 2017, a series of eight exhibition games were played as part of the inaugural PVL on Tour. The series started at Tuguegarao City People's Gym followed by stops at Batangas City Sports Center and Iloilo Sports Complex before concluding at La Salle Coliseum.[1] Another batch of matches were played in December 17 at the Santa Rosa Sports Complex.[2]
