The Disney magic is making its way beyond the screen and into Okada Manila.
Set to roll out in the fourth quarter of 2026, Okada Manila announced a new collaboration with Disney Philippines, where they’ll introduce a series of Disney and Pixar inspired experiences throughout the resort.
This proposed partnership will integrate Disney’s magical story telling into Okada Manila’s world-class hospitality sector and entertainment through themed dining, retail pop-ups, interactive experiences for families, and other Disney character inspired touches.
While these specific offerings have yet to be revealed, the resort says more details will be announced during the collaboration’s launch later this year.
It’s set to bring together a fusion of experiences: Disney's iconic characters and storytelling along with Okada Manila’s Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star hospitality.
For guests, this partnership will offer a new way to experience familiar Disney favourites beyond the screen, turning the stories into immersive experiences with one of the Philippines’ most prominent luxury destinations.
“At Okada Manila, our commitment has always been to create extraordinary experiences that cannot be found anywhere else,” said Nobuki Sato, President and Chief Operating Officer of Okada Manila.
He described the partnership as a big milestone for the resort, emphasizing Disney’s ability to resonate with audiences that span generations, through its themes of imagination and optimism.
Beyond its appeal to Disney fans, the collaboration aims to reflect the ever expanding role of collaborations and offerings in Philippine tourism.
By integrating an internationally recognized entertainment brand into its dining, retail, leisure and hospitality sectors, Okada Manila aims to create new reasons for both local and international visitors to include the resort and Manila in their travel itineraries
Further details on the upcoming Disney-themed offerings will be revealed soon.
