SABAY PARADE is a celebration shaped by community — not personalities. We believe the heart of the event belongs to the people walking, dancing, and creating side by side.
We choose not to center TV hosts, influencers, or celebrities. While many events hand over the stage to high-profile figures, SABAY holds space for everyone equally — no one above, no one below.
There are no headliners, no takeovers. Just shared movement, shared voice, shared happiness.
SABAY means moving together — not watching from the sidelines. One beat. One rhythm. One love.
This is more than a parade. It’s a bridge between voices, cities, and futures.
Come walk with us. Help shape a moment that belongs to all. Let’s move — sabay.
