Parade of Stars
Parañaque was selected as the host city of the launch of the metropolis-wide film festival in March 2018 by the MMFF Executive Committee.[5] The hosting coincides with the 20th anniversary of Parañaque's conversion into a city.[6]
The traditional Parade of Stars which featured floats of the film festival's eight entries took place in Parañaque on December 23, 2018 and was planned to traverse a route measuring Шаблон:Convert.[7] The parade began near Shopwise Santana Grove in Sucat, where an estimated crowd of 300,000 waited for the start of the event,[7] and ended on Bradco Avenue. The parade route also included Dr. A. Santos Avenue, V. Medina Avenue, Quirino Avenue, NAIA Road, and Macapagal Boulevard. The Parañaque Traffic and Parking Management Office closed a significant portion of Dr. A. Santos Avenue starting from Sta. Rita Avenue from vehicular traffic beginning of noon of the day of the parade with assembly and preparation of the event scheduled to begin at 1pm.[5] The normally eastbound lanes of Dr. A. Santos Avenue from Soreena to Kabihasnan, eastbound lanes of NAIA Road from Quirino Avenue to Macapagal Boulevard, and southbound lanes of Macapagal Boulevard from NAIA Road to Bradco Avenue were also temporarily opened for counterflow in an effort to manage anticipated heavy traffic situation caused by the parade.[6]
Heavy rain disrupted the parade program causing delays with the floats stuck in mud at the starting point of the parade. Besides the float of the eight featured films of the MMFF, the parade was supposed to be joined by the floats of the Parañaque local government and Metropolitan Manila Development Authority but their vehicles were not reportedly present in the starting area. The float, featuring the film Fantastica, was the first float to leave the assembly area at 1:25 pm[7] albeit without members of its cast. The Fantastica cast boarded their film's float vehicle an hour later. The Girl in the Orange Dress float followed Fantastica's float with Jericho Rosales and Jessy Mendiola. By 3:30 pm, only three out of eight floats has managed to get out of the mud with One Great Love joining the vehicles of Fantastica and Girl in the Orange Dress.[7] The float of Mary, Marry Me was the fourth and final vehicle able to join the parade.[8]
The Jack Em Popoy cast opted to leave their float behind and boarded a truck instead.[9] The cast of Otlum and Rainbow’s Sunset also did the same and boarded another vehicle while the cast of Aurora left their float but Anne Curtis is using her own van to head straight to Aseana where the parade ended.[10]
At least two million were estimated to have witnessed the event live.[7]
