Manchester Storm vs Coventry Blaze – AO Arena
Watch Manchester Storm take on Coventry Blaze in an electric ice hockey showdown at the AO Arena this October.

Whether you're a hardcore hockey fan or looking for something different to do on a Friday night, this is proper entertainment that never fails to deliver.
The AO Arena sits right in the heart of Castlefield, one of Manchester's most atmospheric districts packed with independent bars, restaurants, and the scenic canal towpath.

Getting there is straightforward – the arena is just a short walk from Deansgate-Castlefield tram station or a quick drive into the city centre car parks nearby.

Wrap up warm though – it gets proper cold inside during the game.
