White Party Manila 2026: The country's biggest Pride celebration returns



Once hailed as the Philippines' biggest and most iconic pride celebration and a high-caliber production, White Party Manila 2026 returns to The World Trade Center Manila on June 27, led by the country's beloved LGBTQIA+ icon and Unkabogable superstar Vice Ganda.

This year’s White Party Manila is a collaboration between LoveYourSelf and Mentorque Productions, with a portion of the event proceeds supporting HIV Awareness programs, testing, and care because Pride is not only celebrated; it is protected.

"Our hope is to become the official party for all Pride events. Let's work together to unite everyone and create a truly inclusive celebration," Bryan shared in an interview. "We anticipate welcoming between 15,000 and 20,000 attendees to the event, making it one of the largest gatherings of its kind."

Bryan further explained, "This gathering aims to showcase the true spirit of the LGBTQIA+ community. While we cannot control what others say, we are committed to respecting all religions and every individual's beliefs, perspectives, and opinions. Our goal is to foster understanding and acceptance among all participants."

"One thing is certain: the LGBTQIA+ community plays a vital role in the country's progress. Our members possess immense talent and capability, and many are actively contributing to nation-building in various fields. Their dedication and achievements demonstrate that diversity strengthens our society as a whole," the producer added.
