How to get to Cuneta Astrodome

Just 6 more days until the concert! Are you excited? I am! If you are and you still don't have your tickets, then WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? Tickets are still available!

Anyway, in case you're unfamiliar with the Cuneta Astrodome area (like me :p), here's a helpful guide written by my friend Yam. :)

HOW TO GET THERE:

1) MRT - LRT
a. Libertad Station
Alight at the dulong station, EDSA-Taft then walk to the LRT station.
Buy a ticket for Libertad (P12)
At Libertad, get out of the station (sa may Mcdo yung exit) and cross the street (see map). You can walk or also take a trike pero the trike there is expensive! Hahaha 20-30 pesos yata. Pero since the place is unfamiliar I think it would be OK to take a trike.

Please note, medyo madaming tao sa baba ng LRT, since it's Pasay so just watch out. Bangketa talaga. Also the area across is the public market.

b. Gil Puyat/Buendia
Alight at Gil Puyat/Buendia station (after Libertad) and take a shuttle to SM Mall of Asia if you want to have dinner first. From MOA you can take a cab to Cuneta Astrodome

2) FROM MAKATI (via Buendia) or MANILA (Malate, etc)

If coming from Buendia, once you hit Roxas Blvd you can't turn left. You have to take the U-turn slot, lampas ng overpass. You will see World Trade Center.

Do NOT turn right to Roxas Blvd. after the U-Turn kasi walang left-turn slot going to Cuneta from there.

What you do is go past Roxas, cross the intersection and turn right sa service road. You'll pass the singing cooks and waiters restaurant, then DFA then you'll see Cuneta looming in the distance (left side). The Cuneta Astrodome bldg is painted in a weird shade of green.

3) VIA EDSA then Roxas Blvd.

6PM onwards usually coming from Makati, southbound na EDSA medyo traffic. Moving naman pero malaki ang volume ng cars.

Turn left at Roxas Blvd. You'll pass the old Hyatt, a couple of condo buildings and the Japanese embassy.

Cuneta will be on the right side, you can turn right at Libertad. You'll see a Jollibee and 7-11.

4) Other Public Transportation
Bus

The Las Pinas-Lawton/Sta.Cruz buses pass by Roxas Blvd. If you're coming from Manila via Taft Ave. you can board a bus bound for Las Pinas (signboards will say Baclaran/Coastal/Southmall).
There are also other Baclaran-bound buses that pass Buendia then Roxas Blvd.

You can get off across Cuneta Astrodome. There is a pedestrian overpass in front of HK Sun Plaza.

* If anyone knows how to ride a jeep to Cuneta Astrodome, please post on the comments. :) Thanks!

WHERE TO EAT?

1. SM Mall of Asia - you can have early dinner there. You can leave MOA at 7:15pm if you want to be at Cuneta Astrodome by 7:30pm :D

2. Seaside/Dampa Macapagal - along Macapagal Blvd. there are many restos here. Dampa!

3. Hobbies of Asia - there's a Brothers Burger outlet here, if you want a quick meal.

4. HK Sun Plaza - across Cuneta Astrodome
On the side facing the venue: Jollibee (yes another one), Max's (chicken) and I can't remember if there's a Bacolod chicken or Chowking)
On the other side facing Macapagal Blvd there are other restos and food outlets (Kitaro, Danny's Grill etc.)

5. Around Cuneta Astrodome
Facing Roxas Blvd may Jollibee. I expect madaming tao dito on the concert day
Other side (along Libertad): Greenwich, another Jollibee, McDo and across that area, near Shell may Chowking (along Harrison)

6. Harbour View/Center near CCP
