# Venue and date conflict check · 30 Philippine stops

Checked 10 November 2026 against public venue calendars, ticketing platforms (Ticketnet, SM Tickets, TicketMAX), venue and LGU pages and festival calendars. One dated conflict found, nine recurring-season warnings, four venue-identity problems.

## The one dated conflict

Cagayan de Oro, 14 Aug 2027, Limketkai Atrium. The venue's own reservation calendar at reserve.limketkaicenter.com/locations/atrium carries an awarded whole-day hold spanning 14 to 16 Aug 2027, with no event name published. The event is unnamed but the room is committed on our date. Sibling spaces (Rosario Pavilion A2, Event Center) showed no August 2027 holds, so a room swap inside Limketkai is the cheap fix. The same calendar also shows an awarded block running 23 Jan to 4 Jul 2027, which is worth querying directly. Also note Higalaay Festival falls on 28 Aug, inside the surrounding window at city level.

## Recurring-season warnings

These are calendar habits, not announced bookings. Each needs one question on the booking call.

- Ormoc, 19 Jun 2027: Piña Festival and city fiesta occupy the Superdome and the city every late June; street dance at the Ormoc City Sports Complex on 22 June 2025.
- Tagbilaran, 10 Jul 2027: Sandugo runs the whole of July, opening with Charter Day on 1 July. The venue is also a school gym, so the school controls the booking.
- Iligan, 4 Sep 2027: Diyandi Festival opens about 1 September and runs the month.
- Cebu, 20 Nov 2027: IC3 is habitually busy in the last week of November with construction and trade expos.
- Roxas City, 15 May 2027: clear of both the WVRAA Meet (29 Mar to 2 Apr 2027) and Capiztahan (about 13 to 19 Apr), the two known occupiers.
- Bacolod, 8 May 2027: sits in the gap between USLS graduation (late April) and the June ceremonies.
- Baguio, 6 Mar 2027: only March 2027 Baguio items found were academic conferences on 3 to 4 and 8 to 9 March, none naming the Convention Center.
- Batangas, 13 Feb 2027: the Calumpang River Summit is an October habit, not February.
- Davao, 31 Jul 2027: clear of Kadayawan, which runs 6 to 22 August 2027.

## Venue identity problems

Four stop names do not match a real room, which matters for the RFP set and for the hold requests.

- General Santos: the main indoor room is Lagao Gymnasium at about 7,000, not "GenSan City Gymnasium".
- Zamboanga City: the 10,000-seat room is the Mayor Vitaliano D. Agan Coliseum; the "Zamboanga City Coliseum" pages are empty shells.
- Koronadal: events run at the South Cotabato Gymnasium and Cultural Center.
- Tagum: the City of Tagum Cultural Center appears to be used as a foyer or small hall. Capacity needs confirming before the stop is viable at plan.
- Metro Manila opener: the room is now branded Playtime FilOil Centre, ticketed through TicketMAX and HeyTickets. UAAP volleyball has opened on 14 to 15 February in recent seasons, so 6 Feb sits just ahead of that block.

## What is actually verifiable

Only three rooms on the list publish a reachable calendar: Mall of Asia Arena, Playtime FilOil Centre and Limketkai Atrium. MOA's announced horizon stops at May 2027, so nothing is posted for the 6 Nov 2027 stop and it must be rechecked at twelve months out. FilOil's calendar stops at 18 Nov 2026. Every provincial gym, coliseum and convention centre publishes nothing, so "nothing found" there means unverified, not clear.

## The call list

Twenty-two rooms need a phone call or a written hold request before the dates can be treated as real. Priority order: Limketkai (conflict to resolve), FilOil (opener), SMX Davao (both dates), IC3 Cebu (both dates), Ormoc, Tagbilaran, Iligan, then the remaining provincial gyms.
