A picture says more than a thousand words. Overlooking Manchester's impressive skyline, Club Business enjoys a delicious welcome lunch, a first introduction and a pleasant networking moment.

15:00: free time
Need to recover from the move, explore the city, go to the National Football Museum or one of the many pubs? Club partners enjoy a few hours of free time and, each in their own way, recharge their batteries.

8 p.m.: partner dinner
Australasia quickly became one of the most popular restaurants in Manchester courtesy of unique fusion cuisine, full of Australian and Asian influences. So the perfect setting for a delicious partner dinner and an enjoyable evening.

Ready for kick-off! We have taken our seats at the Etihad Stadium and are anxiously awaiting the Champions League anthem. Let's go Blue-Black!
