OVG’s Co-op Live, UK’s Biggest Arena, Delays Opening Following Test Launch


Oak View Group's Co-op Live's opening has been delayed by a week following a problematic test launch event in Manchester.

The United Kingdom’s biggest entertainment arena has pushed back its official opening by one week following a preview show that saw a number of tickets cancelled hours before it was due to start. Also listed among Co-op Live’s investors is multi-Grammy-winning pop star Harry Styles, who grew up in the small Cheshire village of Holmes Chapel, around 30 miles outside of Manchester, and advised on aspects of the venue’s design. Bookings already confirmed for 2024 include the Eagles, Take That, Liam Gallagher, Olivia Rodrigo, Nicki Minaj, Kid Cudi, Slipknot, Eric Clapton, Pearl Jam, Justin Timberlake, Noah Kahan and Megan Thee Stallion.
