The Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Professional League Philippines (MPL PH) is making history this year. For the first time ever, the MPL PH Season 16 Playoffs will be staged in a full arena setting at the Cuneta Astrodome in Pasay City from October 22 to 26, 2025. Fans can now secure their tickets for what promises to be the biggest and most electrifying playoffs in MPL PH history.
A First in Philippine Esports History
With a capacity of up to 2,000 fans per match day, the Cuneta Astrodome marks the largest venue yet for the MPL PH Playoffs. Once known as the “Home of the PBA,” the Astrodome has hosted countless historic basketball games, concerts, and cultural events.

Representing the iconic venue, Garry Reyala, Administration Officer at Cuneta Astrodome, expressed pride in the partnership: “Hosting MPL Philippines here shows that esports is no longer just a game, but a sport, career, and community that inspires millions. Just as we once became the home of basketball, we are proud to now be a home for esports.”
