Country To Country is bringing a three-day music extravaganza to the city
Grab your cowboy hats and get ready to holler, because the biggest country festival in Europe is coming to AO Arena next year.
Country To Country will arrive in Manchester in 2027, bringing the fastest-growing genre in the UK to AO Arena for a three-day country music extravaganza. The event will also take place at various venues across the city centre, including New Century Hall, with more to be announced over the coming months.
Since Country To Country’s inaugural event at London’s O2 in 2013, headlined by Tim McGraw and Carrie Underwood, the annual festival has become the premier destination to see the world’s best country artists and future stars outside of North America. Not only does C2C feature performances from the world’s best country stars it also showcases the best of emerging talent from Nashville, UK and Europe.
The event will be supported by Manchester Accommodation BID, a ground-breaking initiative led by the city’s hotel and serviced apartment providers to help bring new events to Manchester and Salford.
Tickets go on sale at 10am on Friday 20 March. Sign-up here to get early bird pre-sale access.
