Manchester isn’t short of football fan zones, however fan favourite, Road to Victory, has announced its huge return at a brand new outdoor city centre location. Returning just in time for the World Cup semi-final and final games, Castlefield Bowl will be the new home of the fan-adored football fan zone.
Heroed as Manchester’s original and favourite football fan zone, Road to Victory, previously hosted at Depot Mayfield for the 2022 World Cup and AO Arena for the 2024 Euros, is returning with its unique production, with space for over 9,000 cheering fans at Castlefield Bowl.
