It was a night of celebration of Filipino talent at the Philippine International Convention Center for the 72nd Carlos Palanca Memorial Awards for Literature awarding ceremony.
The Palanca Awards—named after the businessman and philanthropist Carlos Palanca, Sr. and sponsored by the Carlos Palanca Foundation, Inc.—is the longest-running literary competition in the country. Highly coveted by many Filipino writers both here and abroad, it incentivizes them to help enrich Philippine Literature and acts as a treasury of our literary gems.
An immense part of the annual revelry is the hard work and dedication of the authors, poets, academics, and other literary luminaries who helped determine the entries well-deserving to be part of the illustrious Palanca Awards roster.
