Complete bus schedule, fares, and terminal guide for EDSA-Cubao — Metro Manila's #2 busiest bus hub serving North Luzon, South Luzon routes.
About EDSA-Cubao Terminal
The EDSA-Cubao Bus Terminal Complex is Metro Manila's primary hub for provincial buses heading to Northern and Central Luzon. Located along EDSA near Araneta Center in Quezon City, the terminal cluster accommodates between 80,000 and 100,000 passengers daily across multiple bus company terminals.
Unlike a single unified terminal, Cubao operates as an ecosystem of adjacent terminals — each major bus line maintains its own departure area, all accessible from the Araneta Center footbridge and EDSA walkways. This makes it the most operator-diverse terminal in Metro Manila, with seven major companies serving destinations from Baguio to Ilocos to Bicol.
Cubao is also a major multimodal interchange: MRT-3 (Araneta-Cubao Station) and LRT-2 (Cubao Station) both have stations within walking distance, making it the easiest major terminal to reach from most parts of Metro Manila via public transport.
