Stadium Experience unites industry together at Etihad Stadium in Manchester
Abstract
Stadium Experience brought together industry figures and UK stadium venues for an inspiring day event at Etihad Stadium, home of Manchester City FC.

More than 100 representatives from stadia across the country gathered to network with peers, hear from top industry speakers, explore innovative supplier solutions and enjoy tours of the Etihad Stadium. 

Following the success of the inaugural session at Edgbaston Stadium in March, this second event reaffirmed the industry’s appetite for collaboration and innovation across all areas of stadium operations.

The programme featured sessions tailored to key areas of the stadium business including, non-matchday events, hospitality and retail kiosks and public catering managers. Delegates enjoyed a networking lunch, a ‘Cube’-style team challenge and the opportunity to connect with suppliers.

Debbie Rigney, director of Stadium Experience, said: “It was invaluable to meet up with our colleagues face-to-face again to hear the very latest trends, learn about new opportunities available and explore another fabulous stadium venue, which has developed significantly in recent years. 

“Following such positive feedback from our members, the event is now a firm fixture in the Stadium Experience calendar, with the next gathering planned for March at Edgbaston Stadium in Birmingham.”
