With the dust barely settled from the recently concluded Red Bull Half Court 2025 World Finals in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, Red Bull has officially turned its sights to Southeast Asia, announcing the Philippines as the next host of the Red Bull Half Court 2026 World Finals.
The milestone staging marks the first time a major global 3-on-3 basketball championship of this scale will be held outside the FIBA circuit.
Set against the vibrant backdrop of Manila, the 2026 World Finals promise to put Filipino streetball culture front and center, inviting the world to experience the raw passion, creativity, and toughness that have long defined basketball on Philippine streets.

From concrete courts to packed neighborhoods, the Philippines has built a reputation as one of the most basketball-crazed nations on the planet, making it a fitting stage for the sport’s fastest-growing format.
Red Bull Half Court’s trademark style will once again be on full display, featuring its high-octane 3-on-3 half-court format. Games unfold under a relentless 12-second shot clock, capped at 10 minutes or decided the moment a team hits 21 points.
The rules leave no room for hesitation, demanding instinctive playmaking, non-stop movement, and composure under constant pressure, qualities that resonate deeply with the local streetball ethos.
As the countdown begins, the Red Bull Half Court 2026 World Finals are shaping up to be a landmark moment for Philippine basketball, with the world’s best 3-on-3 teams set to converge on local soil.
Fans can follow the road to Manila and stay updated on schedules, qualifiers, and event highlights through the official Red Bull website and by following Red Bull Philippines across its social media platforms on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok.
