White Party Manila

White Party Manila is back. It started as a street party in Malate, centered around Orosa and Nakpil streets, where it promoted the area's gay bars and LGBT rights. Over time, it grew into the biggest yearly LGBT gathering in Metro Manila. Later, the party moved to clubs in Ortigas, but organizing issues led to its demise, and it was gone for twelve years.

It returned on 27 June 2026 at the World Trade Center in Pasay, with the theme "Reignite". Mentorque Productions and the HIV group LoveYourself organized the event, which featured Vice Ganda as the headliner, along with Ben&Ben, Gloc-9, Maki, and Marina Summers. The dress code was all white. The SexBomb Girls were named Icon of the Year, and the mayors of Quezon City, Manila, San Juan, and Pasay were honored as allies. The event raised P1 million for LoveYourself, which will go towards HIV testing and care.

Tickets were available on Ticket2Me. As of now, there's no official word on a 2027 edition. If it follows the same pattern, late June is a likely time for its return, given the Pride Month date and the timing of its comeback. The World Trade Center in Pasay is at 1300 Metro Manila, and tickets for the 2026 event were sold through Ticket2Me.
