Ali Mall is the first major shopping mall in the Philippines. It is located at Araneta Center, Cubao, Quezon City beside SM Cubao, and owned by The Araneta Center Inc., a subsidiary of the Araneta Group. The mall was named in honor of boxer Muhammad Ali, and was built in 1976, making it one of the oldest malls in the country.[1][2][3] A main tenant of the mall is the Department of Foreign Affairs' DFA CO NCR-Northeast, a passport office located on the second level which was opened in February 2014.[4] Recently, they relaunched the new Cinemas (Alimall Cineplex 4) and Food Court (Food Plaza).

History

Construction on the mall began in 1975 after Muhammad Ali's boxing victory against Joe Frazier in Araneta Coliseum, dubbed "Thrilla in Manila".[3] [5] At the time there were no malls in the entire country, so Ali addressed a speech to the Philippines to build a shopping mall near the Araneta Center in honor of his victory, a shopping mall with a floor area of 62,000 sq.m.[1][6] The shopping mall was completed within the year and was inaugurated on June 30, 1976. Ali himself attended the ceremony.[7]

The Mall had many firsts in the country: The First enclosed and fully air-conditioned mall, the first cineplex with 2 cinemas, the largest indoor skating rink (Skate Town), and a food court. [8]

In the 1980s, the mall has been undergoing expansions and renovations since its construction. In 2009, an expansion to Ali Mall was opened. There is also a bridge linking Ali Mall to nearby SM Cubao.

In 2016, with the passing of the Boxing icon Muhammad Ali, the mall paid tribute to Ali's legacy.[9]
