Manchester's new £365m Co-op Live Arena has named its new general manager as it prepares to open later this year.
The 23,500-capacity venue - whose backers include pop star Harry Styles - is due to open in December at Manchester’s Etihad Campus and will host up to 120 shows a year.
Now Gary Roden has joined as executive director and general manager, following eight years at Ticketmaster where he became senior vice president of client development and commercial.
