Mister Pilipinas Worldwide (commonly abbreviated as MPW) is a beauty pageant and organization that selects the Philippines' official representative to major international pageants such as Mister Supranational, Manhunt International, Mister International, and Mister Global, and other international pageants such as Mister Cosmopolitan and Man of the Year.[1]

History

Empire Philippines, the owner of the franchise for Miss Universe Philippines, launched Mister Pilipinas Worldwide (MPW) holding its inaugural edition in May 6, 2023. Empire intends the MPW as a consolidation of three pageants; Mister Supranational Philippines, Mister Global Philippines, and Mister Manhunt Philippines, doing away with the need to hold separate pageants to determine the Philippine representatives for the international counterparts of the three competitions.[2] The pageant would serve as a qualifier for other international pageants aside from the three.

A second Mister Pilipinas Worldwide pageant would be held in October of the same year as part of the larger The Filipino Festival.
