In the last seven decades since its erection, the Quirino Grandstand in Rizal Park, Manila, has served as the foremost venue of historical events that matter most to the lives of Filipinos.
The grandstand has witnessed such momentous occasions as presidential oath-takings, the Philippine Centennial, the turn of the Millennium, sporting events, mass movements for national advocacies and freedom of expression, and large religious assemblies, among many others.
