True to the arena’s commitment to bringing the best fan experience, this breakthrough aims to give fans a more immersive, interactive, and versatile viewing experience.
SM MOA Arena Cube shows versatility
The SM MOA Arena The Cube was immediately seen in action during the University Athletic Association of the Philippine (UAAP) finals for Men’s and Women’s Volleyball, where numerous team and fan moments were captured through the massive Light-Emitting Diode (LED) screen.
The SM Mall of Asia Arena The Cube makes its first appearance to the public during Season 87 of the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) Volleyball Championships.
This was the first time the new centerhung has been revealed to the public, showcasing its split-screen capabilities and real-time data integration, where fans had an up-close look at the game while staying up to time with the live standings.
