Now that The Friends Experience has arrived in Manila, die-hard fans are in for a powerful dose of nostalgia. The immersive exhibit features meticulously recreated sets, replicated costumes, and special corners dedicated to each of the show’s beloved characters.
It’s as if Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe have come to life at The Space, Solaire Resort, where the walk-through experience runs from October 8 to November 30, 2025.
The six characters hail from the iconic American sitcom Friends, which captivated audiences for ten seasons from 1994 to 2004.
Excitement filled the air as fans lined up at the entrance of the exhibit, greeted by photo walls featuring the beloved cast — Jennifer Aniston, David Schwimmer, Courteney Cox, Matthew Perry, Matt LeBlanc, and Lisa Kudrow.
From the moment visitors step into The Space at Solaire, it feels like walking straight into the world of Friends — with the iconic orange couch, fountain, and lamp post serving as the perfect starting point for the nostalgic walk-through experience.
It’s a picture-perfect experience for fans, who eagerly take turns sitting on the iconic orange couch to recreate the show’s unforgettable opening billboard.
From there, visitors can explore a gallery of replica costumes, each paired with memorable quotes from the moments when the characters wore them.
This section of the exhibit also offers a behind-the-scenes look at the making of Friends — complete with messages from the show’s creators and detailed insights into the set design, artwork, and wardrobe that brought the beloved sitcom to life.
THE ONE WITH RACHEL’S LOVE LETTER TO ROSS
Fans of Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) and Ross (David Schwimmer) would definitely love the gallery featuring the iconic 18-page love letter that Rachel gave Ross after they broke up.
Remember that scene when they kissed and made up, only to end up fighting again?
For context, Rachel discovers that Ross didn’t actually read her very long letter.
In the letter, Rachel wants Ross to take responsibility for his unfaithfulness before she agrees for them to get back together.
When Ross realizes what Rachel asks from him, he insists they weren’t officially together when he hooked up with someone else.
That gave birth to Ross’s iconic line, “We were on a break!”
With The Friends Experience The One In Manila, Pinoy fans will finally get to read the 18-page love letter that Ross and Rachel argued about.
THE ONE WITH JOEY AND CHANDLER’S APARTMENT
One of the standout attractions at The Friends Experience The One In Manila is the chance to step inside Joey (Matt LeBlanc) and Chandler’s apartment — and instantly feel the laid-back, hilarious energy that defined their friendship.
The gallery features the duo’s beloved recliner chairs, those iconic La-z Boys they could never live without — the ultimate symbol of their couch-potato lifestyle.
Fans will no doubt recall the unforgettable moment when Joey splurged on the recliners after landing his big break on Days of Our Lives — a true sitcom milestone brought to life once again.
It was also at Central Perk where Ross dropped the bombshell that his second wife, Emily, wanted them to move apartments—just to avoid running into Rachel.
After reliving these unforgettable Friends moments through the recreated sets and props, fans can cap off their nostalgic journey at the souvenir shop, where they can take home exclusive memorabilia from the exhibit.
Visitors can also purchase printed and digital copies of their professionally taken photos from inside The Friends Experience The One In Manila, making the day even more memorable.
