Binibining Pilipinas 2015, the 52nd edition of Binibining Pilipinas, was held on March 15, 2015 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum, Quezon City, Philippines. At the end of the pageant Mary Jean Lastimosa (Miss Universe 2014 - Top 10 Finalist) crowned Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach as Miss Universe Philippines 2015 while Bianca Guidotti (Binibining Pilipinas International 2014) crowned Janicel Jaranilla Lubina as Binibining Pilipinas International 2015. The pageant also awarded three other titles to participate in minor international beauty pageants in which Kris Tiffany Janson (Miss Intercontinental 2014 2nd Runner-up) crowned Christi Lynn Landrito McGarry as Binibining Pilipinas Intercontinental 2015, Yvethe Marie Santiago (Miss Supranational 2014 - Top 20 Semi-Finalist) crowned Rogelie Ardosa Catacutan as Binibining Pilipinas Supranataional 2015, and Parul Shah (Binibining Pilipinas Tourism 2014) crowned Ann Lorraine Maniego Colis as Binibining Pilipinas Tourism 2015. The first runner-up was Hannah Ruth Lulu Sison, 26, a multi-media artist/professor from Oas, Albay, while Kimverlyn Ofalsa Suiza, 26, a TV segment producer from Marikina City, was named second runner-up.

A few months later, Colis was appointed by BPCI to represent the country in the upcoming Miss Globe pageant in Canada this year, thus earning the title as the first Binibining Pilipinas Globe 2015. Her predecessor when she was crowned as Binibining Pilipinas Tourism, Parul Shah was also appointed to represent the country in the Miss Grand International pageant in Thailand, prior to the acquisition of the local franchise. Shah earns the title as the first Binibining Pilipinas Grand International 2015, despite the fact that a former Binibining Pilipinas candidate was the country's first representative to the pageant (Annalie Forbes).

Prior to the appointment of Colis, BPCI decided to discontinue the title of Binibining Pilipinas Tourism prior to the cancellation of the Miss Tourism Queen International pageant.

This pageant produced the third Miss Universe titlist for the Philippines, Pia Wurtzbach, thus ending the 42-year drought for a Filipina Miss Universe.[2]

This batch has produced 5 international titleholders: Miss Universe 2015, Miss Globe 2015, Miss International 2016, Miss Globe International 2016, and Reina Hispanoamericana 2017.
