The Iron Fairies Manila in BGC: A Fantasy-Inspired Cocktail Bar with a Global Legacy
The Iron Fairies Manila, located in BGC, Taguig, is a cocktail bar and live music destination known for immersive interiors, signature cocktails, and theatrical nightlife experiences.
Originally from Bangkok, Thailand, The Iron Fairies was created by Ashley Sutton and has since expanded to Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, Bali, and Manila, bringing its fantasy-driven bar concept to multiple cities. Inspired by old Australian mines, Sutton transformed his background in mining, steelwork, and children’s book illustrations into a bar concept where fantasy and industrial design converge.
