The festivities kicked off in Llegado's hometown of Taguig City, which prepared a parade float inspired by her purple crown.
The beauty queen wore her winning golden-orange gown by Rian Fernandez as she proudly waved the Philippine flag to her supporters.
"Always proud to be a Taguigeña," she declared in an Instagram post.
"From Mutya ng Taguig 2018 to Miss Supranational 2026," she added. "No matter how far this journey takes me, coming home will always feel the most special. My heart will always belong to where it all began."

Hours later, Llegado held her second homecoming parade at the Mall of Asia Complex in Pasay City.
She wore a custom Pablo Mendez gown said to be inspired by jade vine.
"I'm grateful to everyone who showed up and made me feel all the love and support! Rain or shine," Llegado wrote.
"This win is for all of us."
