    SM Mall of Asia (MOA) Arena unveils the biggest centerhung in the country, officially dubbed as “SM MOA Arena The Cube,” on May 14, 2025. This beating heart of the arena is one among many steps in turning the venue into an event space with the finest fan experience, anywhere at the SM MOA Arena.

    A bright future for SM Mall of Asia Arena

    The launch was hosted at the modern and luxurious Premiere Café of the SM MOA Arena to commemorate this added innovation, which is set to rival other international National Basketball Association (NBA)-class courts. Together with long-time corporate partners, local government, sports leagues, and media partners, the event served as a symbol of their fruitful partnership.

    The venue not only beheld the centerhung with its own eyes but also heard its resounding voice as it introduced itself as the beating heart of the arena.

    Present at the SM Mall of Asia Arena The Cube’s launch are Richard Bachmann, Philippine Sports Commission Chair; Cignal TV, broadcast partner; and University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) officials.
    Region Manager Blair Robertson of Daktronics proudly announces the very same technology used in some of the world’s iconic venues in his message of partnership during the launch.

    “The Cube is more than a screen—it’s being able to engage fans through the visual capability and versatility in any event,” says Arnel Gonzales, the Senior Assistant Vice President and General Manager of the SM MOA Arena.

    True to the arena’s commitment to bringing the best fan experience, this breakthrough aims to give fans a more immersive, interactive, and versatile viewing experience.

    SM MOA Arena Cube shows versatility

    The SM MOA Arena The Cube was immediately seen in action during the University Athletic Association of the Philippine (UAAP) finals for Men’s and Women’s Volleyball, where numerous team and fan moments were captured through the massive Light-Emitting Diode (LED) screen.

    The SM Mall of Asia Arena The Cube makes its first appearance to the public during Season 87 of the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) Volleyball Championships.

    This was the first time the new centerhung has been revealed to the public, showcasing its split-screen capabilities and real-time data integration, where fans had an up-close look at the game while staying up to time with the live standings.

Crafted by Daktronics, a global leader in LED displays trusted by iconic venues like Madison Square Garden and Crypto.com Arena, this state-of-the-art centerhung spans 176 square meters, a 27% increase over the previous 138-square-meter setup. With a main LED display boasting 672×1344 pixels, plus top and bottom rings adding 30 and 18 square meters respectively, the visuals are sharper and more vibrant than ever—117% better than the old system. Whether you’re seated courtside or in the upper tiers, the crystal-clear images and vivid colors ensure you won’t miss a single moment.

  • Big Bang: Beyond Alive

    Big Bang: Beyond Alive

    big-bang-alive-tour-manila

    As early as the afternoon, VIPs, how Big Bang fans are called, were already beginning to flock the surroundings of the Mall of Asia Arena. The booths outside, which featured the band’s official merchandise and some of their advertised brands, were raided by fans. Their life-sized cardboard representations alone proved to be quite an attraction to the frantic audience that was just waiting to storm the arena to see their much loved Korean boy band.

    Even with the overflow of foreign acts that passed Manila, Big Bang’s Alive tour remained to be one of the highly anticipated events of the year as the band makes their way around unchartered territories for their first ever world tour. K-pop, which has spread its influence over people like wildfire, definitely burned its influence in the Philippines, as the genre infectiously catches more and more Filipino fans who ardently and painstakingly make the effort to learn their language just to sing along to their songs and understand their raw interviews.

    Since their debut in 2006, T.O.P., G-Dragon, Daesung, Seungri and Taeyang have always stood out among others not just because of their undeniable good looks, but also with their trendsetting fashion sensibilities and their ability to compose their own songs. Over the years, they have proved to be capable as both musicians and performers by creating their own brand of hiphop. The band is now one of the most well known Korean acts across the world, inspiring a cult-like following from most of its fan base.

    The 24th of October was marked as their first stop in Manila. Surely enough, no rain, no distance, no threat of bankruptcy was going to keep their fans from seeing the show. Outside, long queues of people were frantically waiting for the gates to open. The VIPs, proudly wearing crown headbands and strutting in outlandish fashion, eagerly waited to get in among thousands of others. On their hands were meticulously designed banners that express their appreciation for the five boys and the official Big Bang crown light sticks. Their imagination, running wild. Their anticipation, just so obviously soaring.
