A medley of style and movement

Since 2010, Mega Magazine, one of the leading style glossies in the Philippines, has shone a spotlight on Filipino talents and creatives from various fields and the country's rich cultural heritage through the Mega Ball.

For its 15th edition, the annual gala centered its theme on the tango between dance and fashion. Held on Independence Day, June 12, 2025, at the Marquis Events Place in Taguig City, the Mega Ball: Fashion + Dance was a grand celebration that went beyond choreographed movements and steps—it honored the ripples Filipinos have made both locally and globally.
