Magdalo Para sa Pilipino Sectoral Party Organization, also known as Magdalo Para sa Pilipino or Magdalo Party-List, is a right-wing political party in the Philippines. Magdalo represents the retired personnel of the Armed Forces of the Philippines and their families, as well as the urban poor and the youth at the House of Representatives.[1]

The organization was established by the Samahang Magdalo in July 27, 2010 in Quezon City, Metro Manila.[1] Samahang Magdalo itself had links to the Magdalo Group, which led the Oakwood Mutiny and Manila Peninsula siege with both efforts to remove then President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo from her post.

Magdalo Party-List is re-endorsed by Former Senator and Navy Officer Antonio Trillanes in 2016 elections, while he's running for vice presidency of the Philippines with supporting Grace Poe's presidency but they lost.
