SM hopeful on bringing 'Disney On Ice' to Cebu

The Freeman

October 03, 2025

For the past 35 years, “Disney On Ice” has always held its Philippine shows in Metro Manila. But the possibility of Cebu experiencing Disney’s spectacular ice skating concert is becoming more likely.

The Seaside Arena has been in construction across SM Seaside City since the pandemic, and upon completion, the 16,000-seater will be the largest indoor arena in Cebu.

Arnel Gonzales, the vice president and general manager of the Mall of Asia Arena, told Philstar.com after the press conference for this year’s “Disney On Ice” show in the Philippines that the Cebu Arena is already 70 percent complete. Both the mall and arena will make up the planned Seaside City Complex, which will also include a convention center and two bayfront hotels.
