The 2022 Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) will be bringing back its much-anticipated "Parade of Stars" in Quezon City on December 21, the first since 2020 after it was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The annual "Parade of Stars" showcases floats inspired by the films competing in the festival. The stars of each film usually ride each float, giving onlookers a chance to see their favorite actors and actresses in person.
