MANILA, Philippines — Malacañang has declared June 24, 2026 as a special non-working day in the City of Manila which will mark its 455th founding anniversary.

This was announced through Proclamation No. 1320 signed by Executive Secretary Ralph Recto by authority of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. on June 16.

“Whereas, it is but fitting and proper that the people of the City of Manila be given full opportunity to participate in the occasion and enjoy the celebration,” it read.

In a social media post, the Manila Public Information Office said Manila Mayor Francisco “Isko Moreno” Domagoso will deliver his State of the City Address at the Quirino Grandstand on the said date.
