The inauguration of the "Ciudad de Victoria" (City of Victory) was led by Pres. Noynoy Aquino and Bro. Eduardo Manalo, the executive Minister of the Iglesia ni Cristo.
Some government officials and celebrities are also there to witness the event. The church will hold a special worship service in the arena in July 27 and will be led by Bro. Eduardo Manalo, a million members are expected to come.
The arena, which was built at the cost of more than $200 million or P7.8 billion, has a seating capacity of 50,000 making it the biggest arena in the world. Its legal owner is the New Era University.
“Kaya nga natin tinawag na Philippine Arena. Kung pag-aari man ng Iglesia ito, ang makikinabang, ang Pilipino,” Bro. Glicerio Santos Jr. (That is why it is called Philippine Arena. Even if this is owned by the Iglesia ni Cristo, Filipinos will benefit from it.)
