Mascot
The games' mascot is dubbed as Pami, with their name derived from the "pamilya", the Filipino word for "family". According to 2019 SEA Games executive director Ramon Suzara, the mascot represents every nation, every athlete, every person coming together that support each other at the games.

Cayabyab originally made the composition of the song, with the expectation that 11 singers will do the official performance.
