The 36 official candidates of Binibining Pilipinas 2025 graced the streets in the much-anticipated Grand Parade of Beauties. With sashes, smiles, and sparkling confidence, the candidates waved to cheering fans while riding top-down cars—each one exuding the elegance, poise, and charm that the national pageant is known for.
Held annually at Cubao’s iconic Araneta City, the Grand Parade of Beauties serves as a prelude to the grand coronation night, signaling that the country’s most prestigious beauty pageant is reaching its thrilling climax. The festive atmosphere was electrified by the presence of passionate supporters who lined the streets, waving banners, shouting the names of their favorite candidates, and celebrating the women who may soon represent the Philippines on the global stage.
This year’s parade was even more star-studded, with appearances from reigning Binibining Pilipinas International Myrna Esguerra, The Miss Globe 2024 second runner-up Jasmin Bungay, and 2024 runners-up Christal Dela Cruz and Trisha Martinez. Their presence added glamour and inspiration to the day, a reminder of the legacy that awaits the next set of queens.
More than just a showcase of beauty, the parade was a heartfelt exchange between candidates and their supporters. It’s a rare and treasured opportunity for fans to see the Binibinis up close, and for the ladies themselves to feel the unwavering support of the Filipino public—an emotional boost just days before they take the big stage.
The excitement now builds toward the Binibining Pilipinas 2025 Grand Coronation Night, happening on June 15 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
