Ayala Malls Manila Bay recently hosted another world-class sports event, featuring Asia’s top pole vaulter and celebrated Filipino athlete, EJ Obiena, in “High Flying Hangout with EJ Obiena” last September 15.

Hundreds of fans gathered at Ayala Malls Manila Bay for an action-packed afternoon, where Filipinos had the unique opportunity to meet EJ up close. The event included a meet and greet, photo opportunities with EJ and 300 lucky fans, and a heartwarming discussion with EJ and other elite Filipino athletes. Notable athletes such as volleyball phenom Alyssa Valdez, women’s football team captain Hali Long, and karate gold medalist Jamie Lim joined EJ Obiena in sharing intimate glimpses into their journeys and lives as athletes representing the Philippines. Their stories aimed to inspire more people, especially the younger generation, to engage in sports and contribute to nation-building.

The event also served as a fundraising effort for “EJ’s 6-Meter Initiative,” which aims to elevate the future of Filipino athletics by installing pole vaulting pits across the country. Ayala Malls Manila Bay is proud and honored to support this initiative by hosting the event.

As a strong advocate for sports and community building, Ayala Malls Manila Bay aims to provide a venue where athletes and dreamers can thrive in a community of shared spaces and passion.
