It is an understatement that Filipinos are big pageant fans so much so that it has been a staple in many community celebrations. But when it comes to a grand display of Filipino pageantry, it is hard not to think of Binibining Pilipinas.

Every year, Filipinas from different parts of the archipelago brave the pageant's stage for a chance to win their dream crowns and compete abroad.Through the years, its platform has changed into something beyond just physical beauty.
As it commemorates its 60th anniversary this year, Binibining Pilipinas is committed to continuing its mission of empowering and celebrating all kinds of Filipino beauty. To celebrate its legacy, Style Weekend sits down with some of the ladies from its latest roster of beauty contestants—Bb. 11 Kim de Luna , Bb, 29 Roselyn Evardo , Bb. 30 Trisha Martinez , and Bb.
For many candidates, the highlight of their Binibining Pilipinas experience lies in the sisterhood they made throughout their journey: Yes, I think beauty pageants still empower women.

The much-awaited grand coronation night of the 60th Binibining Pilipinas pageant will be held on July 7, 2024, at the Smart Araneta Coliseum. The new Bb. Pilipinas International and Bb. Pilipinas Globe titleholders will get P1 million each.
