The festive motorcade kicked off at 4:00 PM, looping through the key landmarks of the Araneta City grounds under a shower of confetti and music. Dazzling the crowd with their signature poise, the candidates waved from open-top vehicles. The parade allowed supporters a long-awaited chance to interact closely with their favorite provincial and city representatives.

Joining the current 35 candidates were reigning titleholders, including Binibining Pilipinas International 2025 Katrina Anne Johnson and Binibining Pilipinas Globe 2025 Annabelle McDonnell. The queens added immense star power to the colorful mid-afternoon procession.
