Getting there

Where to stay

Shared by every event in this building. Which tier is worth it changes with the event — a fight weekend and a Sunday league game price the same room very differently — but the geography does not.

City centre

Northern Quarter, Piccadilly and Ancoats

Walkable to the stadium or a short tram ride, with the most rooms in the city. Ancoats is the closest neighbourhood with hotels.

Value

Salford Quays and MediaCity

On the same Metrolink line as Etihad Campus, so no change on the way in, and usually cheaper than the centre on a big weekend.

Out of town

Stockport or the airport hotels

A short train into Piccadilly, and the fallback when the centre is full on a Friday or Saturday show.

Make a trip of it

The Northern Quarter is the pre-show pub run, the National Football Museum is in the city centre, and the Manchester City stadium tour runs on non-event days.
