It was a night of 100 celebrities or even more. Imagine a gathering of stars all in one place, and it felt like a big celebration of talent and fun.

The atmosphere buzzed with excitement as actors, musicians, and very important persons (VIPs) mingled and shared laughs. Everyone was dressed to impress, from stunning gowns to stylish tuxedos, creating a vibrant and glamorous vibe. It was one of those nights where everyone was having a great time, making it truly unforgettable.

Stars and VIPs walked the red carpet at Solaire North in Quezon City on April 4. The ABS-CBN Ball, previously known as the Star Magic Ball, started in 2007 and has become one of the most anticipated events in the entertainment industry.

This year, ABS-CBN celebrates the power of Filipino storytelling at the much-awaited "ABS-CBN Ball 2025: Brighter Together" by paying tribute to the stories that inspire, entertain, and uplift while reflecting the lives, hopes, and dreams of Filipinos worldwide.

Aside from honoring the stars and people who bring these stories to life, the ABS-CBN Ball also shines a spotlight on the dedicated individuals behind the scenes—employees and creatives—whose passion and talent help elevate Filipino storytelling, and industry partners—networks, digital platforms, and advertisers—who help bring meaningful stories to more audiences worldwide.

This year’s ball is an event with a cause: a portion of the proceeds will support the ABS-CBN Foundation’s programs.

Experience the magic of Filipino storytelling and see your favorite Kapamilya stars in their red-carpet looks by tuning in on ABS-CBN Entertainment’s YouTube channel, iWantTFC, and TFC-IPTV. Catch the replays on Metro Channel starting April 6 and on Kapamilya Channel and TFC-IPTV beginning April 13.

Check out some of the eye-catching looks from the ABS-CBN Ball 2025 in these snaps shared by Nice Print Photography and ABS-CBN:
