“We wanted this celebration to reflect the vibrancy and strength of the LGBTQIA+ community while also creating a space where people can connect, express themselves, and feel truly seen. Entertainment was just one part of the story as we also aimed to spark conversations that matter. This milestone is a celebration of our growing community and our evolving role as a mall that listens, responds, and takes part in shaping a better, more inclusive future. Pride Without Borders is just one of the many ways we bring our mission to life—by creating spaces where everyone feels seen, heard, and at home.” ~Raymond Del Rosario, President of Fisher Mall Group of Companies
Retail space transforms into a community hub through HIV awareness, LGBTQIA+ empowerment, and inclusive celebration.
Fisher Mall Quezon Avenue enthusiastically participated in the Pride Month celebration for the first time with "Pride Without Borders," a one-day event organized in collaboration with the Quezon City Government, as a significant demonstration of its dedication to expand beyond retail.
This historic occasion turned the shopping center into a lively venue for empowerment, awareness, and expression. Renowned drag performers Amazing Chalita, Venus, Winter Sheason Nicole, Shewarmaa, and Tomboy Philippines enthralled the audience with their captivating performances, illuminating the stage with their charisma and vibrant colors. A Pride Walk, Lip Sync Charades, and the humorous but touching Love Puksaan Game were among the interactive events that added to the excitement and inspired mall patrons to engage in happy, community-focused activities.

In partnership with the Quezon City Health Department, Fisher Mall further enhanced its celebration with a purpose-driven project by providing free HIV testing and health discussions during the event. Given the rising number of instances nationwide, this proactive service allowed visitors to participate in life-saving healthcare and education in a secure, stigma-free environment, solidifying Fisher Mall's reputation as a location that values people as much as experiences.
Pride Without Borders showcased LGBTQIA+ entrepreneurs in addition to performances and advocacy. The Quezon City Small Business and Cooperatives Development and Promotions Office (QC SBCDPO) supported a pop-up marketplace where small business owners sold Pride-themed merchandise. Mall patrons were able to buy with pride and support companies that embody resilience, diversity, and creativity thanks to this campaign.
Fisher Mall has once again demonstrated that it is more than just a shopping mall; it is a community center where culture, business, and compassion converge by tackling pressing social issues through smart partnerships and inclusive programming.
Fisher Mall's image as a heartfelt shopping destination that welcomes people from all walks of life, celebrates varied tales, and provides unforgettable experiences beyond the norm is further cemented by the success of Pride Without Borders. The mall invites visitors, partners, and businesses to join its path of creating more than just a shopping center—it is a movement—as it continues to introduce inclusive initiatives and purpose-driven programming.
In her special message, Hon. Maria Eleanor R. Juan, District 6 Quezon City Councilor and Head of Committee on Women, Family Relations, and Gender Equality, also mentioned how the event was more than a celebration but a call to action to continue standing in solidarity with each other.
“Always remember that in Quezon City, you matter, you are seen, and you are part of something much bigger–a movement that is both beautiful and unstoppable.” ~Hon. Maria Eleanor R. Juan, District 6 Quezon City Councilor and Head of Committee on Women, Family Relations, and Gender Equality
Councilor Juan was joined by Ms. Giana A. Barata, Acting Chief Tourism Operations Officer of the city’s Tourism Department at the event who also extended her thanks and support for Fisher Mall’s meaningful initiative for the community.
