Art Fair Philippines 2026 opens at Circuit Makati

From February 6 to 8, Art Fair Philippines returns with its 2026 edition at Circuit Corporate Center One, marking a shift in both venue and ambition. The move to Circuit Makati reflects the fair’s continued growth and its expanding role in connecting Philippine art to regional and global conversations.

Following landmark editions at The Link and Ayala Triangle Gardens, the new venue offers greater flexibility for galleries, curated projects, and public programs, positioning the former racetrack complex as a central site within the country’s contemporary art ecosystem.

This year’s fair brings together leading Philippine galleries alongside exhibitors from France, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan, Vietnam, and Spain, reinforcing Manila’s growing presence in the international art market.

At the core of the fair is ArtFairPH/Projects, led by Imelda Cajipe Endaya, whose work explores domesticity, migration, and women’s empowerment. The section places contemporary practice in dialogue with artistic legacy, including a group presentation by Berlin-based Sa Tahanan Co., a special project by Spanish artist Ampparito in partnership with the Embassy of Spain in the Philippines, and works by late Filipino masters Brenda Fajardo, Constancio Bernardo, Solomon Saprid, and Romeo Tabuena. Exhibition design is once again by Nazareno/Lichauco.

Key activities include:

• ArtFairPH/Projects – curated contemporary and historical presentations

• ArtFairPH/Digital – technology-driven works featuring TRNZ and the TLYR Collective

• ArtFairPH/Talks – daily sessions with artists and cultural leaders

• ArtFairPH/Residencies – international exchange program led by curator Anne-Laure Lemaitre

• 10 Days of Art (January 30–February 8) – citywide exhibitions and public art installations

Art Fair Philippines runs from February 6 to 8, 2026, at Circuit Corporate Center One, Circuit Makati. Tickets are available online and on-site.
