Designed by Populous, a Kansas City-based global mega-architecture firm, the Philippine Arena was featured in a documentary called Man Made Marvels: Quake Proof. It aired on December 25, 2013 in Discovery Channel and focused on making structures in the Philippines more safe from natural disasters such as earthquake and typhoons.
With a capacity of up to 55,000, it is the world's largest indoor arena.
