Premium Experiences
For 30 years, AO Arena has been where legends are made. From Elton John to Lady Gaga to Peter Kay’s historic residency, the world’s greatest performers have called our stage home. With a 23,000 capacity, over one million visitors every year, a past International Venue of the Year Award, and voted Manchester’s Most Loved Venue by the public in 2025, we are the heartbeat of this city.
We’ve reimagined what an arena experience can be. The Mezz is our exclusive new premium space, featuring a VIP bar and a luxury restaurant with menus crafted by Michelin-starred chefs Simon Rogan and Tom Barnes. Our newly expanded Lower Concourse also delivers enhanced standing capacity for a more electric atmosphere than ever before.
Whatever your visit has in store, let us make it one to remember with our great selection of premium experiences packages, exclusive to the AO Arena.
