Manchester City fans were relieved to hear that Olivia Rodrigo’s concert, scheduled on the same evening as their Premier League match against Wolves, was postponed due to venue-related technical issues. Initially, concerns arose about the clash of over 70,000 people around the Etihad Campus, with both events happening at similar times.
Despite efforts by Manchester City to manage the increased footfall, it was deemed necessary to postpone the concert to ensure stadium safety and readiness. Ticket holders were given the option of refunds or holding onto their tickets. After the Wolves match, Manchester City will have one more home game at the Etihad Stadium, potentially coinciding with a Barry Manilow concert and their potential Premier League title lift.
In addition to the game and concerts, the ongoing expansion and redevelopment of the Etihad Stadium, particularly in the North Stand area, will cause minor disruption to matchday routines until 2026. Despite these challenges, the postponement of the concert has provided relief to fans and organizers alike.
