Filipino pride takes center stage at Changing of the Guard Ceremony in Luneta
A powerful tribute to Filipino valor and tradition will unfold on Sunday, August 3, 2025, at 4:00 PM as the National Parks Development Committee (NPDC) hosts the Changing of the Guard Luneta 2025 at the iconic Rizal Monument in Luneta.
This ceremonial ritual honors the timeless Filipino values of karangalan, katungkulan, at kabayanihan as the Philippine Marine Corps ceremonial guards take their solemn post before the statue of national hero Dr. José Rizal. Their disciplined movements will reflect the highest standards of military tradition and patriotic commitment.

Silent drill team adds dramatic flair to celebration
Following the main event, audiences will be treated to a Silent Drill Exhibition 2025 at Lawn A, led by the Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Muntinlupa Honor Guard Drill Team. Executed with precision and total silence, their performance is expected to evoke pride and admiration for Filipino discipline and unity.
The entire program is free and open to the public, inviting Filipinos from all walks of life to witness and celebrate the enduring values that define the nation. The NPDC encourages all to join and be inspired by this meaningful showcase of heritage and identity.
