Intramuros hosts Intramumu from 31 October to 1 November

Intramuros in Manila hosts Intramumu, a Halloween party and running event, from 31 October to 1 November 2026. The programme is listed by the Intramuros Administration for Magallanes Drive within the historic walled city.

Intramumu brings a Halloween programme to Magallanes Drive

The official event page gives 31 October 2026 as the start date and 1 November 2026 as the end date. It describes Intramumu as a Halloween Party and Run for your Life, with Magallanes Drive named as the venue. The dates place the event at the centre of Manila’s Halloween weekend.

The listing does not publish a detailed timetable, performer list or access arrangements. A separate report by ABS-CBN News identifies Magallanes Drive in Intramuros, Manila, as the setting for the two-day programme and describes music, costume activities and a running event.

Intramuros places the event inside Manila’s fortified core

The district is the historic core of present-day Manila. The Intramuros Administration records its establishment by Miguel Lopez de Legespi in 1571, while its walls and fortifications were constructed between 1590 and 1825. The same official history records extensive destruction during the Second World War and the creation of the Intramuros Administration in 1979.

That setting gives Intramumu a specific relationship with the place: the event uses a named drive inside a district whose identity is defined by historic walls, forts, churches, museums and civic buildings. The administration’s official history of Intramuros places the entertainment programme within a heritage landscape shaped over several centuries.

The walled city combines event space with historic sites

Several major sites remain part of the district’s visitor landscape. Fort Santiago was built in 1590 on the site of the Citadel of Rajah Sulayman and was declared a National Cultural Treasure in 2014. Baluarte de San Diego, originally built as a watchtower in 1587, received the same designation in 2014.

The event is therefore not a separate Manila attraction with only a passing connection to the district. It is scheduled at Magallanes Drive, while the surrounding area contains the fortifications, museums and reconstructed buildings managed or documented by the administration. The official list of historic sites names Fort Santiago, Casa Manila Museum, Museo de Intramuros and Centro de Turismo Intramuros among the district’s places of interest.
