MANILA, Philippines — Major roads around the SM Mall of Asia complex in Pasay City will be closed overnight on Saturday, May 2, for the “Star Wars Night Run 2026,” affecting traffic flow in the area. The Pasay Traffic and Parking Management Office said the road closures would run from 10 p.m. until 4 a.m. the following day to ensure the safety of participants. Affected roads are SM MOA Blocks 16/20, Seaside Avenue, Diokno Avenue, Buendia Extension, Jalandoni Street, and Sotto Street with a zipper lane on the Philippine International Convention Center and Star City side. Portions of Roxas Boulevard heading toward Manila, as well as Atang Dela Rama Street with a zipper lane near the PICC area, will also be closed.
