Jonas Brothers have been announced as the first performers at the brand new Co-Op Live arena here in Manchester.

The venue in the Etihad Campus is due to open next Spring.

Once completed it'll be the UK's largest live entertainment venue of its kind.

The arena will boast an innovative bowl design, lowered ceiling height, and a large standing floor to bring fans closer to artists.

The unique space will host the New Jersey-raised trio, celebrating their wide-reaching career already spanning almost two decades.

Gary Roden, Executive Director & General Manager, Co-op Live, says:

“We’re counting down the days until we can open the doors of this incredible new venue for Manchester and the UK.

"I’m thrilled that shortly after announcing our April 2024 opening date, we can reveal that Jonas Brothers will be part of our opening season of globally renowned artists, highlighting the strength and diversity across our forthcoming line-up of shows.”

Amanda Jennings, Director of Marketing Communications, Co-op, said:

“This first artist and pre-sale ticket announcement marks a key milestone for the eagerly anticipated opening of Co-op Live. The arena embodies Co-op’s principles, values and vision and we’re looking forward to seeing these brought to life through this unique partnership.

“Additionally, we’re excited to start sharing what we have in the pipeline for our members, which includes exclusive benefits such as first in line access to tickets, food and beverage discounts at Co-op concessions and hospitality experiences.”

Jonas Brothers will perform at Co-op Live in Manchester on 17th June 2024.

Co-op members will gain early access to tickets through a designated presale from 10am on Wednesday 2nd August. General sale tickets are available from Friday 4th August at 10am.
