Parañaque City, Philippines—The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) launched the third edition of the DTI Bagong Pilipinas Christmas Village Fair at the Filipino Village on the 2nd Level of Ayala Malls Manila Bay. Running until December 22, this festive marketplace showcases the remarkable craftsmanship and creativity of Filipino micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs).
Visitors can seize the opportunity to shop for unique, locally made holiday gifts while supporting local businesses. This year’s fair features a wide array of handcrafted goods, including fashion accessories, home décor, artisanal crafts, and food products.
Aside from providing a platform for MSMEs to showcase their products to wider consumer base, the fair celebrates unique cultural Filipino heritage of the Philippines.

Championed by DTI Secretary Ma. Cristina A. Roque, the DTI Bagong Pilipinas Christmas Village Fair recognizes the hardworking MSMEs as the backbone of the Philippine economy.
Organized by the DTI-Bureau of Market Development, Promotions, and OTOP (BMDPO), the Christmas Village Fair is open daily with free admission.
This third edition of the DTI Bagong Pilipinas Christmas Village Fairs follows successful stagings held in Makati City from November 18 to 22 and Mandaluyong City from November 30 to December 4.
