Since it’s opening in 1938, the O2 Apollo has established itself as a cornerstone of the city’s live music scene. Located on Stockport Road in Ardwick Green, the O2 Apollo has attracted both classic acts, contemporary stars and niche independent artists. One of Manchester’s shining stars in the entertainment scene, the O2 Apollo continues to showcase the stunning Art Deco architecture and longstanding heritage that makes this venue so special.
Bringing a level of intimacy that can sometimes get lost in larger venues, the O2 Apollo has a capacity of around 3,500. You can feel up close and personal with your favourite artists, creating the kind of energy and atmosphere that is hard to find anywhere else.
Mancunians and tourists alike return year after year, praising the venue for its excellent acoustics and lively crowds. From rock to pop, indie to stand-up, the O2 Apollo is a must-visit for all music and comedy fans. Its central Manchester location and regular rotation of high-profile shows make it one of the city’s must-visit live music venues.
