About This Event

Take That are bringing The Circus Live to Manchester this summer, and it's the homecoming gig you absolutely won't want to miss. The legendary Mancunian boyband are performing at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday 20 June 2026 at 5pm, promising an unforgettable night of their greatest hits and new material. If you've grown up with Take That or fancy experiencing one of Britain's biggest pop acts live, this is your chance to be part of something truly special.

The Etihad Stadium is the perfect venue for this scale of production, nestled in East Manchester and easily accessible from the city centre. This world-class arena has hosted countless major events and has the capacity to create an electric atmosphere that'll give you proper goosebumps. There's something extra special about watching a Manchester institution perform in their own city at such an iconic venue.

Getting there is straightforward – the Etihad tram stop is right outside the stadium, or you can drive and use the substantial car parks nearby. Expect a full production experience with impressive staging and lighting, so arrive early to soak in the pre-show buzz. Pack layers since June weather can be unpredictable, grab some food from the stadium vendors beforehand, and get ready for a night that'll have you singing along to every single track.
