History

In 2019, for the 2019 Southeast Asian Games, new facilities were implemented within the sports complex. The project was built by the Department of Public Works and Highways (DWPH) and the Tagaytay city government with WRC Construction as the private contractor.[1] The DWPH has included its skatepark as part of President Rodrigo Duterte's Build! Build! Build! infrastructure program.[2] It was completed on December 17, 2019, with construction taking three months to finish.[3] The sports venue was able to host the cycling and skateboarding events of the 2019 Southeast Asian Games.[4]

The sports venue was closed in early 2020 due to community quarantine measures imposed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. It was briefly opened to the public in September 2020[5][6] but was closed again.[2] By September 2021, the skatepark's street section has become dilapidated.[2]

The multi-purpose arena was refurbished and re-inaugurated as the Tagaytay Combat Sports Center on July 27, 2023.[7][8] An indoor velodrome is also being built.[9]
