Hollywood Vampires at AO Arena Manchester

Catch the legendary Hollywood Vampires at Manchester's AO Arena on Tuesday 18 August 2026 for an unforgettable evening of rock music. This supergroup, fronted by Johnny Depp and featuring Alice Cooper and Joe Perry, brings together some of rock's most iconic talents for a truly special night. If you're a fan of classic rock, theatrical performances, and high-energy live music, this is a must-see gig that won't come around often.

The AO Arena sits in the heart of Castlefield, one of Manchester's most vibrant districts and home to the city's largest entertainment venue. Known for hosting world-class acts and major events, the arena boasts excellent acoustics and state-of-the-art facilities that guarantee an immersive concert experience. Castlefield itself is packed with bars, restaurants, and independent shops, making it the perfect spot to catch a show and soak up Manchester's legendary music scene.

Doors open at 18:00, so arrive early to beat the crowds and grab a drink before the performance starts. The venue is easily accessible via public transport, with Deansgate-Castlefield tram and train station just minutes away. Head to the AO Arena website to book your tickets early, as Hollywood Vampires shows tend to sell out quickly among dedicated rock fans across the North West.
