Very nice. Close to the Air Canada design of 19,000 capacity in Toronto. Anyway, it's just as big as Araneta coleseum w/ 15,000 for basketball, and 16,500 for other concerts or boxing games. I dont know why they built something like that capacity instead of atleast 19,000 or more. Oh well atleast its new perhaps a lot modern than the old ones they got there.

This is really nice and the location is great. More people will be able to go here than Araneta w/c most people from the south would rather avoid. |

There are plans to build the Corazon Aquino National Stadium at the PAGCOR Entertainment City and once completed in 2015 will become the largest in SouthEast Asia... P.S. I might be wrong, I just learned that this project is still on hold... |

Looks like it will not materialize as reports of investors are backing out of the proposed Multi-Billion Dollar Pagcor Enertainment City are spreading, the project remains on hold after more than 5 years of planning already...
