Balibago is one of the barangays of Angeles City, Philippines, famously known as the city's "entertainment district" because many of its establishments is tied to a red-light district. It ranks among the wealthiest barangays, due to its historical proximity to the former U.S. Clark Air Base.
Situated about 80 km (50 mi) north of the nation's capital Manila, Balibago is a commercial and entertainment area containing restaurants, shopping malls, and a casino along MacArthur Highway.
Beginning at its intersection with MacArthur Highway, Fields Avenue which contains the area's "main bar strip" extends toward Clark Perimeter Road (Friendship Road), where numerous go-go bars and hostess bars are located. Although prostitution is illegal in the Philippines, it is known to occur in the Fields Avenue strip of the barangay.
