Meanwhile, the 4-cock pre-finals will take place on Jan. 31 and the much anticipated 4-cock grand finals will take place on Feb. 1.

“We are very excited to welcome fans of cockfighting back to the Smart Araneta Coliseum for the WSC. Since it was first held in 1963, the WSC has always been held at the Big Dome, and cockfighting fans have been watching the spectacle unfold here for almost four decades," said Irene L. Jose, COO of Uniprom.
“But more than that, cockfighting is a sport that is deeply rooted in Filipino tradition, and the WSC is, in a way, a celebration of this very important aspect of our culture," Irene L. Jose added.
