SM Seaside Cebu Arena is a multipurpose indoor arena under construction in South Road Properties, Cebu City, Philippines. The arena, located adjacent to the SM Seaside City complex, will have a 16,000-seating capacity, and will be the largest indoor arena in Cebu once completed.
First proposed in 2013, SM Arena Seaside Cebu (then known as the "SM Seaside Arena") is planned to be a venue for local and international concerts, sports events, international conventions, and as the venue of the Cebu Schools Athletic Foundation, Inc. (CESAFI) and some select Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) games. The arena was also one of the proposed venues for the unsuccessful Philippine bid for the 2019 FIBA Basketball World Cup.
In January 2017, reports emerged that developer SM Prime Holdings had canceled its plans to build the arena. This occurred amidst an unfavorable political climate when Cebu City mayor Tomas Osmeña threatened to revoke several sale lots in the South Road Properties (SRP).
The project was revived in late 2019 during the administration of Mayor Edgardo Labella, with the arena, instead of being within the SM Seaside complex, now placed within South Coast City, an adjacent mixed-use development co-owned by SM Prime with Ayala Land.
The SM Arena Seaside Cebu officially broke ground in 2021. It is set to open in June 2026.
The arena is set to host the 2026 and 2027 FIVB Women's Volleyball Nations League. It was considered as a venue for the 2025 FIFA Futsal Women's World Cup, and is currently being considered as a venue for the 2027 FIBA Women's Asia Cup.
Filipino girl group BINI will be the first performers at the arena on July 11, 2026, for the second leg of their "BINI Signals: Anniversary Celebration" tour. Rock band IV of Spades will also perform at the arena on 18 June. American pop rock band LANY will be the venue's first international performers as part of their Soft World Tour on November 6 and 12, 2026.
The SM Seaside Cebu Arena will have a seating capacity of 16,000 and a full house capacity of 25,000. It will also be linked to the SMX Convention Center Cebu and the SM Seaside City shopping mall via a skybridge.
