History

=Construction=

In 2011, South Korean firm Hanwha Engineering and Construction won the contract to manage the construction of the Philippine Arena. Hanwha outbested bids from Filipino firm EEI Corporation and done on August 17.{{cite news|last1=Ranada|first1=Pia|title=Waiting for Iglesia ni Cristo's PH Arena|url=http://www.rappler.com/life-and-style/34767-inc-philippine-arena|access-date=July 29, 2014|work=Rappler|date=July 27, 2013}} Hanwha announced that it had completed the construction of the indoor arena on May 30, 2014. The venue was not formally inaugurated until almost two months later.

=Inauguration=

The Philippine Arena, along with Ciudad de Victoria, was officially inaugurated on July 21, 2014. Philippine President Benigno Aquino III and Iglesia ni Cristo Executive Minister Eduardo Manalo unveiled the marker of Ciudad de Victoria.{{cite news|last1=Locsin|first1=Joel|title=PNoy arrives at Philippine Arena in Bulacan for Iglesia ni Cristo event|access-date=July 24, 2014|work=GMA News|date=July 21, 2014|url=http://www.gmanetwork.com/news/story/371217/news/nation/pnoy-arrives-at-philippine-arena-in-bulacan-for-iglesia-ni-cristo-event}}

Building details

=Concept=

The initial design concept of the Philippine arena was inspired by narra tree, the mother tree of the Philippines, and the root of banyan tree.{{cite web|title=Philippine Arena|url=http://haeahn.com/front/project/04_byyear_01.htm?index=251&idx_num=286|publisher=Haeahn Architecture|access-date=August 19, 2013|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130819071954/http://haeahn.com/front/project/04_byyear_01.htm?index=251&idx_num=286|archive-date=August 19, 2013}} The roof was inspired by Nipa Hut.{{cite news|last1=Arcangel|first1=Xianne|title=INC's Philippine Arena a 'challenge' for firm behind London's O2|url=http://www.gmanetwork.com/news/story/371285/economy/companies/inc-s-philippine-arena-a-challenge-for-firm-behind-london-s-o2|access-date=July 23, 2014|work=GMA News|date=July 21, 2014}}

=Architecture=

Populous, a global mega-architecture firm, designed the arena through their office in Brisbane, Australia.{{cite web | url=http://populous.com/project/manila-arena-2/ | title=New Manila Arena pushes boundaries of Arena Design | publisher=Populous | access-date=July 8, 2013 | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130513075441/http://populous.com/project/manila-arena-2/ | archive-date=May 13, 2013 }} The official website of the sports facility describe's the structure's architectural style as Modernist.{{cite web|title=About – Architecture|url=http://philippinearena.net/about.php|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160531040534/http://philippinearena.net/about.php|url-status=usurped|archive-date=May 31, 2016|website=Philippine Arena|access-date=December 14, 2017}} The arena has been master-planned to enable at least 50,000 people to gather inside the building and a further 50,000 to gather at a ‘live site’ or plaza outside to share in major events. The seating bowl of the arena is a one-sided bowl and is partitioned into two parts, the upper and the lower bowl each with approximately 25,000 seating capacity. The lower bowl is the most used part of the building and the architectural design allows for easy separation of the lower bowl from the upper tier, by curtaining with acoustic and thermal properties. A retractable seating of 2,000 people capacity is also installed behind the stage which is used by the choir of the Iglesia ni Cristo for events of the church.

The seating layout of the arena is different from that of a standard arena where the stage is at the middle and is surrounded by seats. The seating of the arena closely resembles that of a Greek amphitheater, built in a semi-circle with the seats at the sides and front of the arena stage. The seatings are divided into three sections. Each of the sections are colored green, white and red: the colors of the Iglesia ni Cristo flag.{{cite news|last1=Santos|first1=Reynaldo Jr.|title=FAST FACTS: Iglesia ni Cristo's Philippine Arena|url=http://www.rappler.com/business/industries/175-real-estate/63861-fast-facts-iglesia-ni-cristo-philippine-arena|access-date=July 24, 2014|work=Rappler|date=July 21, 2014}}

The arena has four floors or levels. Level 1 is the stage level, Level 2 is the main access level open to the general viewing public, Level 3 is the VIP area which also houses conference rooms with views facing the main plaza outside the indoor arena building, and Level 4 is the upper concourse.

Furthermore, contractor Hanwha hired their own architecture firm, Haeanh Architects for the project.

For the arena, a series of outdoor plazas, gardens and performance venues form the setting for the development including: The North and South Arrival Plazas, The Promontory Plaza, The Great Stairs, and Ciudad de Victoria Plaza that are all related to each other with two cross axes (N-S and E-W) that intersect at the Promontory Plaza. Two fountains that can shoot waters up to {{convert|15|m|ft|sp=us}} are also installed in front of the arena.

The arena serves multiple purposes, hosting major church gatherings of the Iglesia ni Cristo (INC) and functioning as a versatile sports and concert venue. It accommodates various events, including boxing, basketball, and live music performances, but not association football or field events due to its limited size. For field events, the adjacent Philippine Sports Stadium, also owned by the Iglesia ni Cristo, is used. Every seat in the arena offers a clear line of sight, even with different configurations such as church ceremonies, boxing matches, tennis, concerts, or indoor gymnastics. The INC allows non-Iglesia tenants to use the arena but reserves the right to prohibit activities that violate its religious principles, such as gambling-related events and cockfighting.{{cite news | url=http://sports.inquirer.net/97183/poc-eyes-inc-owned-stadium-as-training-site | title=POC eyes INC-owned stadium as training site | newspaper=Philippine Daily Inquirer | date=April 22, 2013 | access-date=July 16, 2013 | author=June Navarro}}{{cite news|last1=Badua|first1=Snow|title=Noticed that huge arena while travelling down NLEX during Holy Week?
