Philippine Creative
Industry in Focus
A first in the Philippines’ participation in World Expo, the Bangkóta Philippines Pavilion is a stage for globally-recognized and up-and-coming Filipino creative minds and talents.
Bangkóta, from the architecture to its contents to its storytelling, is art-driven.
The Philippine Creative Team, joined with the Bangkóta Community’s passion to create, perfectly communicates a Philippines with a story to tell, through an extensive scope of expertly curated creative sectors: visual and performing arts in contemporary media, film, advertising, audiovisuals and new media such as animation and game development, and cultural expressions instilled in museology, artisanal products, craft and design, fashion and food.
