Co-op Live – Manchester’s world class state-of-the-art live venue opening in 2023 at the Etihad Campus, have unveiled a video of their incredible premium hospitality suites, ensuring VIPs in the city will be given the ultimate experience when it comes to enjoying live events.
With 28 suites, 12 lounges and club spaces, plus over 2,000 premium suites, Co-op Live suites will provide a unique and elevated offering for VIP guests, with an intimate design, high quality finishes, blackout curtains and even a private dance floor for exclusive high-end house party vibes.
With Co-op Live’s massive 23,500 capacity, international developers Oak View Group’s premium corporate hospitality offerings are selling at unprecedented rates, with more than half of its suites already snapped up by leading businesses in the North West including Boodles Manchester. All suites are expected to sell out in record time, a whole two years before the opening.
For an elevated experience, suites benefit from amazing views of the stage from each side of the arena, while Co-op Live’s unique design compact bowl structure means that suites will be 15 meters closer to the artist than in traditionally designed arenas.
Pre-show, guests will enjoy a private, relaxed atmosphere in ultimate luxury, but ensuring the fun doesn’t stop after the show ends, Co-op Live suites are designed to replicate the atmosphere at a high end super club with a centre island which will unite everyone together, with premium elements, the very best food and drink options, sophisticated features and even glass fronted fridges.
Suite holders also enjoy exclusive perks, including VIP entrance, exclusive VIP drop off and valet parking by the entrance, and access to the Atrium Club. But inclusivity is also a core element of the design of the Co-op Live suites: the remaining suites have capacity for 16 people and are all located on the same level and oversee the Atrium, allowing guests to join in on the collective fun.
Sam Evans, Showroom Manager at Boodles Manchester, said: “We’re really excited to tell our clients that we’re part of this huge new age for arenas and entertainment that Co-op Live is bringing to Manchester.
“The biggest appeal for us is the ability to invite our clients from Manchester and across the UK to enjoy fabulous entertainment experiences. We’re ready to blow their socks off with events at Co-op Live.”
With Oak View Group, City Football Group, artist Harry Styles and Co-op all joining forces to created the biggest and best arena in the UK, Co-op Live will rival New York’s Madison Square Garden and The O2 in London to become one of the world’s premier music and entertainment venues, hosting live music, sport, comedy, awards shows and family entertainment.
Co-op Live will deliver one of the world’s most pioneering, sustainable, and socially responsible venues, delivering Co-op’s vision of a fairer world into the entertainment industry. The project will create 3,350 constructions jobs and 1,000 roles and apprenticeships on completion of the venue as well as giving over £1m back to national and local good causes.
