History

The venue's structure under construction. May 2021.

The Sorsogon Sports Coliseum[2] was built on the former site of the Balogo Sports Complex (renamed Sorsogon Sports Complex).[3] The sports venue was originally built for Sorsogon province's hosting of the Palarong Pambansa in 2022[4] which was later postponed to 2023.[5]

With a seating capacity of 15,000, the sports venue is patterned after the Coliseum of Rome.[2]
