Man City 2025/26 – The Ardwick: Traditional Pub Hospitality Meets Elite Football

Celebrate football in its most authentic form at The Ardwick — Manchester City’s homage to its humble beginnings. Set within the Etihad Stadium, this hospitality option captures the character of a classic British pub while delivering modern comfort and top-tier views of the action.

A Pub-Inspired Space with Heritage

The Ardwick isn’t just themed — it’s an experience. With checkerboard tiling, weathered wood accents, chalkboard menus, a working jukebox, and darts, this suite recreates the unmistakable feel of a neighborhood pub. Inspired by City’s former name, Ardwick F.C., it channels the city’s working-class roots with pride.

Comfort Food and Cask Ale

Here, matchday dining is all about British staples that hit the spot. Expect pub favorites like pork pies, scotch eggs, and lamb shank, all served in a relaxed setting. Pair your meal with a pint from the rotating lineup of traditional cask ales or choose from the full bar menu of beers, wines, and soft drinks — all available on a pay-as-you-go basis.
