An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Do you guys think this country will eventually have a high capacity (let’s say that can hold 70-80k people) outdoor stadium in the near future? I became interested in this topic because of Taylor Swift and Coldplay’s world tour as they perform in outdoor stadiums and it then occurred to me that we actually don’t have a high capacity outdoor stadium here (though I guess it makes sense as Filipinos typically aren’t into outdoor sports so I guess the investment for a high capacity stadium probably isn’t worth it).

It's a possibility, yes, but logistics would be a nightmare if not planned properly (see Philippine Arena). Another factor will be return of investment; you wouldn't be building such large stadium if the events are too far from between.

We can and should. Kita naman with these k-pop concerts na sold out kadalasan and madami pa gusto manood, pano pa kaya when the big guns come over.

Problem is logistics. The only plausible locations for these venues are in far away patches of land like Bulacan, Clark, Laguna, etc. and getting there as a concertgoer and going back home after (if you're from the opposite side of the country) is a pain.
