After more than a decade, White Party Manila is making its long-awaited return this June 27 at the World Trade Center Manila, with Vice Ganda leading the comeback of what was once considered one of the country’s biggest and most iconic Pride celebrations.

Dubbed White Party Manila: Reignite, the 2026 edition marks a new chapter for the LGBTQIA+ community and its allies. The event is being mounted through a collaboration between LoveYourSelf and Mentorque Productions, combining entertainment, advocacy, and community support in one large-scale Pride gathering.

A portion of the proceeds from the event will help fund HIV awareness initiatives, testing, and care programs, reinforcing the organizers’ message that Pride is not only celebrated, but also protected.

Known for its high-energy productions and inclusive atmosphere, White Party Manila has long symbolized freedom, unity, and love within the LGBTQIA+ community. Organizers said this year’s event aims to be “bigger, bolder, and brighter than ever,” bringing together LGBTQ icons, celebrity allies, surprise guest appearances, and DJs for a night of celebration during Pride Month.

The event also highlights inclusivity, with organizers emphasizing that everyone is welcome and equal in white as the party reignites its legacy for a new generation.

“I’m so excited for the party. White Party was really the party 10 years ago. It was the most unkabogable celebration for the LGBTQIA+ community at that time,” shared by Vice Ganda about its comeback.

“Celebrating with everyone in white, seeing that sea of beautiful individuals, solid and united for a specific goal, is such a powerful experience. Converging together, meeting new friends, seeing everyone I haven’t seen in the longest time—‘yun talaga yung inaabangan ko,” added by MMFF 2025 Best Actor. 

“Vice Ganda is the perfect person to represent everything White Party Manila stands for: authenticity, courage, and joy,” shared the Mentorque team. “Having Vice as the face of this year’s comeback feels more meaningful, especially as we reignite the spirit of Pride through celebration, community, and purpose while delivering a Pride night to remember,” from Mentorque team. Alongside Vice Ganda, iconic LGBTQIA+ personalities such as John Sweet Lapus, KaladKaren, Ice Seguerra, Liza Dino, Joey Mead-King, Angie King, Andoy Ranay, Alex Diaz, Klea Pineda, and Mimiyuuuh will join the festivities on the 27th. Allies including Janella Salvador and Chie Filomeno, as well as LoveYourSelf ambassadors and volunteers such as Joy Barcoma and Hannah Arnold, are also among the names taking part in the celebration.

Some of the exciting acts lined up for the event include Ben&Ben, Maki, Marina Summers, and Gloc-9. Streetwear designer Bang Pineda will also unveil the White Party Manila Collection.
