The £350 million arena would be able to hold a capacity of 23,500 overtaking both the Manchester Arena and the o2 Arena in London to become the largest in the UK. The arena would be the most expensive arena ever built in Europe and cost a variety of different events throughout the year.
“I’ve always been a huge fan of Manchester and we have been trying to figure this out for many, many years, we’re grateful we finally have a site, we have a vision, and we have a partnership with the community to pull off building what we hope will the best arena ever built in Europe and the UK.” – Tim Leiweke – Co-Founder & Chief Executive, OVG
