Mr World Philippines


The Mr. World Philippines continues to look for a successor for current Mr. World Philippines Kirk Bondad.

The Mr. World Philippines organization is still looking for a successor to current reigning Mr. World Philippines Kirk Bondad as it has once again put out a call for aspiring male pageant titlists.

In one of the more recent posts on its Instagram account, the organization reiterated its final screening on April 11 at the DoubleDragon Plaza in Pasay City, starting at 11 a.m. In the caption to the post, the organization advised interested applicants to come wearing smart casual attire and to bring swimwear, preferably trunks.

The past few months has seen the Mr. World Philippines organization announce multiple screenings. The organization had earlier conducted a screening back in November 29, 2025.

That screening came after the Mr. World Philippines organization earlier announced that the application period would be extended to November 14, 2025, mentioning in a now deleted Instagram post that it was open to accepting either a “seasoned contender” or someone “stepping into the spotlight for the first time.”

Before that announcement, the Mr. World Philippines organization extended the deadline for its application period to October 15, 2025.

The initial deadline for applications was set on August 30, 2025, with the organization providing a link to application forms as well as instructions to applicants to send one full body shot, one swimwear photo and one headshot.

The current reigning Mr. World Philippines, Kirk Bondad, placed in the Top 12 of the Mr. World Top Model competition. Kirk was commended by the Mr. World Philippines for showcasing Filipino craftsmanship by wearing a suit made by designer Francis Libiran.

The closest the country has come to winning the Mr. World pageant was back in 2012 when Andrew Wolff placed first runner-up to Mr. Colombia Francisco Javier Escobar Parra.

Kirk has since gone on to win in the Mister International pageant, a win that he declared was a moment bigger than himself.
