Timezone Philippines is about to renovate and open additional locations nationwide by year-end and in 2026, the corporate’s top official said on Friday.
“Before the yr ends, we still have two more venues to open: one in Venice Grand Canal Mall (in Taguig City), which shall be a multi-attraction venue, and one other in Ayala Capital Central in Bacolod City,” Raffy Prats Jr., president and general manager of Timezone Philippines, said throughout the relaunch of its flagship venue in Glorietta 4 in Makati City.
“Next yr, we now have six more venues lined up, all in multi-attraction formats.”
Of the eight venues set to be launched, five are recent locations, Mr. Prats said.
The president also noted that, with Timezone’s multi-attraction format, each recent and existing locations will feature more group-friendly attractions. The relaunched space in Glorietta 4, the corporate’s first branch in Metro Manila which was first opened in 1998, incorporates this format.
The nearly 1,400-square-meter space—expanded from 900 square meters—now houses greater than 120 games and attractions, including social bowling, billiards, and bigger karaoke rooms that may accommodate as much as 12 people.
Patrons may also explore virtual reality games corresponding to VR Hologate and VR Star Ride.
Mr. Prats said the renovation got here after the COVID-19 pandemic and to coincide with the continuing renovation of the mall itself.
“We felt that we would have liked to bring something special to our guests and provides them a brand new experience,” he said.
The combination can also be a strategic move to draw a wider audience.
Meanwhile, Caroline Leong, group chief customer officer of Timezone Group, said the Philippines is one among the fastest-growing and most dynamic markets. Timezone, originally from Australia, operates in not less than seven countries, with its leading operations within the Asia-Pacific region, in accordance with its website.
“Within the Philippines, something I’ve noticed is that folks just like to play together. They prefer to go along with their multi-generational family,” Ms. Leong said throughout the launch event.
Since its opening in 1998 in Cebu, Timezone Philippines has expanded to 51 full-size venues and over 50 smaller locations nationwide, it said.
In 2026, the corporate goals for double-digit revenue growth following the recalibration and consolidation it undertook this yr, Mr. Prats said.
