Dynamic living in a sustainable megacity
The golf course in Villar City will cater to both professional tournaments and everyday golfers.
Beyond designs and masterplans, the best cities are those that come alive with the vibrant rhythms of daily life.
When streets invite movements, parks encourage gatherings and neighborhoods instill a sense of belonging, every public space transforms into a stage for community, creativity, and shared experiences—fueling that dynamic spirit that makes a city come alive.
Where life happens
Villar City, an emerging megacity spanning 3,500 hectares across 13 towns and cities in southern Mega Manila, realizes this all too well.
It understands that when cities curate the right experiences and create inviting communal spaces, they transform everyday routines into moments of meaningful connections. Community activities and on-ground events further breathe new life into these urban spaces, where local culture is celebrated.
Thus, by turning roads into running tracks, parks into social spaces, and neighborhoods into bustling hubs of activity, Villar City is proving that urban living can be vibrant and exciting as it is sustainable. Essentially, Villar City is where life truly happens.
‘Car-Free Sundays’
One of the standout initiatives of Villar City is its “Car-Free Sundays”, where its main roads are temporarily transformed into safe, open spaces for pedestrians and cyclists.
Every Sunday morning, residents trade the usual rush hour traffic for a refreshing burst of activity—jogging, cycling, or simply taking a leisurely walk with their loved ones and pets. What makes it even better is that Coach Ben Tanner, a USATF/Endurance Certified Coach, hosts free run clinics, which offer expert guidance. So whether you’re a newbie or a marathoner, you can level up your fitness goals while being part of an active, growing community.
Recently, Villar City held “Fast Track: A Fun Run at Villar City” in partnership with Pace Events and Coach Tanner. Over 700 runners of all skill levels took part in a spirited 3K, 5K, and 10K run, along with a special 1K run for pets, transforming the city’s streets into a lively track of community spirit and wellness.
This event promoted an active and healthy lifestyle, while providing an opportunity for participants to connect with neighbors and fellow fitness enthusiasts.
World-class facilities
Villar City’s vision for health and wellness, however, doesn’t stop at car-free streets. This megalopolis will soon feature an array of recreational amenities that cater to a variety of interests and encourage people to stay active.
For the adventure enthusiasts, soon-to-launch mountain bike trails will allow cyclists to wind through scenic routes, inviting them to explore nature without leaving the city.
Sports lovers will also soon have access to world-class facilities made possible by a partnership between the Villar Group and All-Star Properties Inc.
Designed to champion Philippine sports, the 30,000-sqm The Stadium at Villar City will feature state-of-the-art courts and fields for basketball, volleyball, padel, pickleball, and badminton, and will house an impressive 3,000-seat football stadium with a FIFA-standard pitch. It will offer both professional athletes and sports enthusiasts the opportunity to train in a world-class environment.
In January this year, the Villar Group announced its partnership with the US-headquartered Curley-Wagner Golf Design for the design of the first tournament golf course. The proposed 18-hole golf course, which will rise on a 65-ha site with a nice natural terrain in Villar City, will cater to both professional tournaments and everyday golfers.
These thoughtfully planned features ensure that every aspect of daily life—work, play, and everything in between—is integrated well into the urban experience.
A celebration of community
Indeed this early, Villar City’s active initiatives and modern amenities are helping lay a strong foundation for an eco-conscious, complete, and connected megalopolis—designed not only to provide a self-sustaining city, but also to bring people together and make every day a celebration of community.
