Here’s a list of all the alternate routes you can take.

A stretch of FPJ Avenue road closure will be from the corners of Osmena Street all the way to Del Monte Avenue. The closure is set to begin tonight, November 18, 2022, at 8:00 PM until November 20, 2022, at 8:00 AM. FPJ Avenue is an important artery for motorists and as such, alternate routes have been announced by the Quezon City LGU.
As it is, Pitimini Street will serve as an access road for VIPs, and the stretch of FPJ Avenue from the corner of Osmena Street to Pitimini Street has been designated as VIP parking. Again, FPJ Avenue will be closed from the corner of Pitimini to Del Monte.
The following rerouting advisory was posted by the LGU:
- Vehicles passing by Roosevelt Avenue from Quezon Avenue towards EDSA, turn right into Del Monte Avenue, left at Judge Juan Luna Street, left at Baler Street, and right into Roosevelt Avenue towards EDSA
- Opposite direction from EDSA to Quezon Avenue, left into Baler Street, right at Judge Luan Luna Street, right into Del Monte Avenue, and left into Roosevelt Avenue towards QC. OR
- Passing by Roosevelt Avenue towards Araneta Avenue, right into Osmena Street, left at Tolentino street toward Del Monte Avenue, or left into West Riverside Street
The Distrito Uno Kyusiklaban Music Festival 2022 is the brainchild of Rep. Arjo Atayde and means to promote Original Pilipino Music (OPM) to the district’s youth. Expect major foot traffic as well as vehicular jams around the road closures along FPJ Avenue, and do consider the alternate routes set by the LGU.
Good luck, motorists!
