Toyota is bringing the action back to the streets, and everyone’s invited. On 24 and 25 May, the 2025 TOYOTA GAZOO Racing Philippine Cup takes over Villar City, marking the return of street racing for the first time since 2018.

It’s the second race weekend of the season, and it’s open to all — no tickets needed, just register at tgrphcup.com to get in. The event is free, and the lineup is packed.

Saturday kicks off with Qualifying and the first Sprint Race. Then on Sunday, expect back-to-back action with two more Sprint Races, also on the schedule: Drag Races, Gymkhana and Car Club exhibitions — plus livestream coverage on TOYOTA GAZOO Racing Philippines’ Facebook and YouTube channels for those watching from home.

If you’ve followed the series back when it was called the TGR Vios Cup, you’ll remember its earlier street races in Alabang, Cebu, McKinley Hill and Pasay. This year’s venue — Villar City — is the newest addition to that list, with its sharp corners and long straights promising high-stakes action and tight overtakes.

But the excitement doesn’t stop on the track. There’s something for everyone: GR car displays, test drives, sim racing setups, food booths, official merchandise and live performances. On Saturday, Rico Blanco and Parokya ni Edgar will take the stage. Sunday’s headliners? Ely Buendia and Bamboo.

There will also be special event-exclusive promos on Toyota vehicles for those on the lookout for a fresh, new ride during the race weekend. More details will be announced soon.

“We have heard how much the racers and fans wanted to bring back the street race after the successful ones we’ve had in Metro Manila and Metro Cebu. With the races closer to the Metro, we hope more people will come to experience the thrill and joy of motorsports for themselves and perhaps even discover a passion for speed and all things racing,” shared TMP assistant vice president for Marketing Services Andy Ty.

The TOYOTA GAZOO Racing Philippine Cup is sanctioned by the Automobile Association Philippines and is brought to you by Official Fuel & Lubricants Partner Petron and Official Tire Partner GT Radial, in cooperation with Official Venue Partners Villar City and Brittany.

This event is also supported by Official Timekeeper Seiko, Toyota Financial Services Philippines, Tuason Racing, AVT, 3M, Denso, ROTA, OMP and Kinto One.
