The 2022 Pampanga Giant Lanterns season was the third season of the franchise in the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (MPBL). This is also their first season in San Fernando, after playing in Angeles City during their first two seasons.
The Giant Lanterns' first game in San Fernando was a win against Manila on May 24. From July 22 until September 19, Pampanga earned eight consecutive wins as the team finished 14–7 in a three-way tie for the second seed in the North Division. By tiebreaker criteria, Pampanga settled the fourth seed, the same seed they were in previously. After a tight three-game series against the Bataan Risers, Pampanga would fall to the eventual champion Nueva Ecija Rice Vanguards in a sweep.[1][2]
The team played all of their home games at Bren Z. Guiao Convention Center.
