A purposeful weekend awaits champions of healthy lifestyles, pet lovers, and environmental warriors at Celebrity Wellness Weekend (CWW) 2025, happening on Dec. 5-7 at the Food Truck Fest in Greenfield District, Mandaluyong City.
Around 30 celebrities, online personalities, and athletes who represent different aspects of wellness will join the event. These include Alice Dixson, who stays in shape by regular exercise and healthy eating, Danica Sotto-Pingris, a celebrity mom who is also a furmom to at least seven dogs, Rufa Mae Quinto, who has always shown that laughter is the best medicine, and Antoinette Taus, who has found fulfillment in advocating for the environment. Sports enthusiasts and athletes Lance de Castro, Bang Nita, and Marc Pingris will also grace the event.
They will also be joined by other celebrity sellers—Maja Salvador, Andrea del Rosario, Rita Daniela, Ara Mina, and Ryza Cenon, who will be selling their healthy drinks, snacks, personal brands, and pre-loved items.
It is timely that Greenfield District is hosting its fourth Celebrity Wellness Weekend as its master planned community with open green spaces steadily attracts runners, yogis, and other wellness enthusiasts. In addition, Greenfield District is also the home to merchants that focus on mindful and healthy living, including dining spots, sports facilities, and wellness services.
Participating establishments at CWW are Pavilion’s Kalinong Wellness, offering free yoga classes for three days; Gameville Sports Bar hosting a free Zumba party; and the Mandaluyong City Fencing Club’s exhibition.
Meanwhile, the ever-viral Food Truck Fest that offers a diverse array of menus – from Filipino, Mexican, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Korean, Japanese, Thai to Guamanian cuisines – will keep the participants fueled to join the activities. Customers may enjoy live performances by up-and-coming musicians Levii, Fitz Shioda, and Ouvir.

For the first time this year, environmental nonprofit CORA (Communities Organized for Resource Allocations), founded by former actress Antoinette Taus, is joining Celebrity Wellness Weekend. CORA will set up its Eco-Ikot Center Collection Hub, where customers can donate segregated clean and dry recyclables in exchange for e-cash and goods, or they can also opt to donate to CORA.
CORA will be accepting PET bottles; paper and cardboard; soft plastics and sachets; rigid plastics (bottles from hygiene products and cleaning materials); and tin and aluminum cans.
CORA will also set up a booth that will serve as both an educational space and promotion and selling of sustainable products and merchandise from The Sustainable Planet (TSP).
On top of these, the celebrity sellers are encouraged to pledge a portion of their sales to CORA, as well as auction off some of their preloved items.
“We’re so grateful that CORA has been chosen as the beneficiary of this year’s Celebrity Wellness Weekend. Our mission has always been for the people and planet and we do this by empowering women, supporting communities, and caring for our earth — which aligns with the values this event represents,” says Antoinette Taus, CORA Founder and Executive Director.
“It’s inspiring to see wellness and sustainability come together for a cause that creates meaningful impact this holiday season.”
