Set to complete by the end of next year, the next-generation multi-storey car park will hold space for 406 cars, 150 bicycles, 30 car shares, a parcel delivery hub, café, store, and nearly 15,000 sq ft of public realm.

A couple of these would be ideal along with a copy of the Pink Car park that holds buses at the Collar site, ideal spot where the former gasholders are

Will all that green and blue felty stuff on the ground around the stadium and whatever is on Mercer way finally be replaced as part of the ongoing work?

One thing with the champions league final is that it shows what having vocal support at one end of the ground can do

Probably a similar price point across the specific suites at the Coop Live Arena?

Manchester agency Vega has teamed up with venue and event management giant ASM Global to promote the launch of The Mezz, a new luxury mezzanine suite at Manchester’s AO Arena set to open in early 2024.



The Mezz membership packages include access to over 50 shows throughout the year with bar packages starting from £8,500 per year and restaurant packages starting from £12,500 per year.

Vega signs on to help launch AO Arena's new, exclusive hospitality offer The Mezz

Bar packages in the new members-only suite start at £8,500, though you do get access to 50+ shows and some of the best seats in the house.

In the chairman's video, he mentioned statues and where are these going, by the sounds of it, it's not individual statues either.

@Manchester33 have you had your meeting with Danny Wilson yet?

Not yet. Now the season is finished we should make some progress.

With the help of some City Matters reps we keep putting it to city.

Thanks LevyBee for the photos.

So what happens to the Bar, the food stalls, etc. Is there any replacements planned while the build commences ? I like a pint or two before and always after the game in City sQ to let the Metrolink queues die down.

I'm been reliably informed that it's staying.

Apparently we are so short of tradition,history and legacy that most of it is remaining and the rest is taking pride of place in the new museum.
