MAKATI CITY — Few weekend traditions bring together sunshine, swimming, and cocktails quite like Liquid Brunch at Fairmont Makati. Returning for another summer season, the monthly poolside gathering invites guests to swap quiet afternoons for a lively blend of handcrafted drinks, curated music, and refreshing moments by the water. This year’s edition takes place on selected Sundays, June 14, July 5, and August 2, 2026, from 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at the hotel’s fourth-floor Pool Bar.
Cocktails, Bites, and Beats by the Water
Living up to its name, Liquid Brunch revolves around a beverage-focused experience designed for relaxation and socializing. Each event highlights a featured beverage partner, with Patrón Tequila taking center stage during the June 14 kickoff. Guests who enter through walk-in admission receive one complimentary glass of the featured drink, while those looking for a more elevated experience can reserve private tables or cabanas that come with full cocktail service. Throughout the afternoon, a live DJ provides the soundtrack, gradually shifting from laid-back tunes to energetic house music, keeping the atmosphere vibrant and engaging as the event unfolds.
Pool Access and Summer Snacks
In addition to its cocktail offerings, the event grants guests full access to the Fairmont pool, an uncommon luxury in the middle of Makati’s urban landscape. Visitors can relax by the water, enjoy a refreshing swim, and sample a specially curated menu of poolside bites prepared for the occasion. The atmosphere balances relaxation and social energy, allowing guests to either float in the pool with a margarita in hand or settle at the bar and take in the lively surroundings.
Pricing and Reservations
Walk-in admission is priced at P600 per person, which includes standing access and one complimentary glass of the featured partner beverage. Guests seeking a more comfortable and exclusive setup may reserve a private table for three persons at P10,500, a small cabana for four persons at P15,000, or a large cabana for up to eight persons at P8,500.

Over the years, Liquid Brunch has become a favorite among Makati’s social crowd, hotel guests, and anyone looking to replace a quiet Sunday with a more spirited experience. It offers a rare opportunity to enjoy a resort-like escape without leaving the city, providing all the elements of a summer getaway without the need for travel, just a willingness to relax, unwind, and dive into the fun.
