From contemporary fashion to artisanal homeware and gourmet finds, the Designers' Holiday Bazaar returns with its biggest edition yet — expanding to more cities while spotlighting the country's most exciting creative talents.

The countdown to holiday shopping starts early with the return of the Designers' Holiday Bazaar (DHB), which is back for its 13th edition with its biggest expansion to date. This year, the beloved marketplace is heading beyond Metro Manila, bringing its carefully curated selection of Filipino brands to more communities across the country under the theme Sinag — a celebration of the creativity, heritage, and craftsmanship that continue to shape local design

The 2026 edition will make stops at Ayala Malls Abreeza in Davao City from September 3 to 6, TriNoma in Quezon City from October 14 to 18, before culminating with its flagship holiday showcase at Glorietta and Ayala Museum from November 27 to December 6 in partnership with the Ayala Foundation's 65th anniversary. Each destination promises a distinct mix of fashion, home décor, food, wellness, and lifestyle brands, alongside regionally inspired discoveries that celebrate Filipino artistry.
Beyond shopping, DHB continues to champion local communities through its long-standing scholarship initiatives with the Ayala Foundation and the STEPS Scholarship Foundation, supporting students and young classical dancers across the country. This year's edition will also feature live performances, choral presentations, and interactive holiday activations, transforming the bazaar into a festive cultural experience rather than simply a retail destination.

Whether you're searching for thoughtful gifts, discovering emerging local brands, or investing in beautifully crafted pieces with a meaningful story behind them, the Designers' Holiday Bazaar remains one of the season's most compelling celebrations of Filipino creativity, proving that shopping local has never looked, or felt, more rewarding.
