Amazing new footage has revealed just how much of Manchester’s new 23,000 seat arena has been built.
The footage, shared last week by Co-op Live, shows a timelapse of construction at the site, which is next door to the Etihad football stadium. The new arena promises to be the UK’s largest indoor venue, and will boast 32 bars and restaurants alongside a ‘big sweaty hall’ .
Now, with its grand unveiling set for a little more than a year away, images shared by bosses show that the seating bowl has largely been installed at the venue. Those will be used by music fans ‘100 nights a year’, developer Oak View Group (OVG) says.
