The boss of east Manchester’s new £365 million arena says it will become one of the busiest and most important music venues in the world on the day it opens.
Co-op Live, currently under construction next to the Etihad Stadium in east Manchester, is on track to be completed and host its first events in December next year.
In an exclusive interview with the Manchester Evening News, Tim Leiweke, CEO of Oak View Group, the American firm behind the project, said they had already “locked down” some artists for the first flurry of gigs.
