A huge new warehouse space is set to open in Manchester, launching with screenings of World Cup matches featuring pies, pints, live commentary and half-time punditry. Called the Love Factory, the new venue is tucked behind the Co-op building and Angel Meadow Park.
It’ll be showing matches from November 21, starting with England’s match against Iran, then followed by the England USA match on November 25 and England vs Wales on November 29. Projecting the matches onto the wall of the cavernous warehouse, they will provide an immersive experience, with beer hall-style bench seating and standing ‘singing terraces’.
On match days, there will be live commentary provided by talkSPORT, as well as live half-time punditry. As well as seating and standing options, there are also ‘hospitality boxes’ that can be hired out too, which come equipped with state-of-the-art flatscreens and sound systems.
