Celebrity chef and local restaurateur Simon Rimmer joins forces with the new arena to provide a reimagined premium experience
Co-op Live is launching a brand-new, reimagined premium experience curated by renowned chef Simon Rimmer, recognised for his appearance on Channel 4’s Sunday Brunch and Manchester’s popular Deansgate venue, Albert Schloss.
Following the sad closure of Rimmer’s Greens restaurants in Sale and Didsbury earlier this year, Simon will be joining forces with Co-op Live to serve guests an exclusive Mediterranean-inspired menu in a one-of-a-kind space known as ‘Hideaway’.
Hideaway comes as the next premium offering from the arena, combining exceptional dining with live entertainment and luxurious surroundings for that pre- and post-event party atmosphere.
The new offering replaces the former Decibel Lounge and comes with a new design throughout, making it the only premium membership still available at Co-op Live, with all other experiences across the venue having sold out.
Hideaway’s interiors will reflect a sophisticated Mediterranean style, with cosy nooks and plush seating that invites guests to celebrate their evening in a luxurious setting. It is the perfect spot to gather before and after events, offering a holistic experience that keeps the energy going. The space will also feature live DJs and live performances, further enhancing the pre- and post-show vibes.
A Hideaway membership includes tickets to the venue’s most coveted seating for all publicly ticketed events in section 103, as well as entry to Hideaway before and after shows.
Simon Rimmer has designed a menu that elevates late-night dining, giving guests the opportunity to enjoy Mediterranean street food with a twist.
To complement the dining experience, Hideaway will offer Moët & Chandon champagne and Hennessy Cognac cocktails. Early members will also receive a personalised liquor locker with a bottle of Hennessy Paradis or Armand De Brignac included to celebrate their membership.
Sam Piccione III, OVG International President of Sales saID: “The redesign of Hideaway marks a significant moment in our continued journey to deliver unrivalled premium experiences at Co-op Live.
“With Simon Rimmer’s involvement, we are taking things to the next level – creating a destination designed for music lovers, combining great music with outstanding food, cocktails and Champagne, in a stylish party atmosphere that makes experiencing live music at Co-op Live unforgettable.”
