The Philippine Embassy in Singapore invites cultural institutions, festival programmers, production agencies, presenters, touring networks and performing arts stakeholders to participate in the Manila International Performing Arts Market (MIPAM) 2026, to be held from 11 to 13 September 2026 at the Tanghalang Ignacio Gimenez (CCP Black Box Theater) in Pasay City, Philippines.

With the theme “Showcasing Asia to the World,” MIPAM 2026 serves as a premier platform for cultural diplomacy, artistic exchange, and international collaboration. The event brings together Filipino and international performing artists, creative practitioners, festival organizers, producers, impresarios and cultural leaders to foster partnerships, touring opportunities, co-productions, and regional exchange within the global performing arts community.

As one of the flagship initiatives of the Cultural Center of the Philippines, MIPAM continues to position the Philippines as a dynamic hub for contemporary Asian performing arts, and a gateway for showcasing Philippine and regional creative excellence to international audiences and markets. The platform also provides for business-to-business networking, artistic pitching, capacity-building discussions, and engagement with major performing arts festivals and institutions across Asia and beyond.
