Embark on an unforgettable football journey to Manchester and experience the magic at Old Trafford, where Manchester United meets Southampton F.C. on January 16, 2025.
To make the most of your trip, we recommend that you stay at least three nights, both to enjoy Manchester and to be flexible if the match date should change.
Explore Manchester
Manchester is a city full of life and opportunities. Take the opportunity to explore its many attractions before match day. Take a walk through the heart of the city and discover the Northern Quarter, known for its unique shops and trendy cafes. If you are a football lover, a visit to the National Football Museum is a must - a tribute to the history of the sport and its greatest moments. The evenings in Manchester offer everything from charming pubs to modern cocktail bars, so there is something for everyone to enjoy.
How to get to Old Trafford
Getting to Old Trafford from central Manchester is both easy and convenient. The Metrolink tram system is the best option for many visitors. Take the line towards Altrincham and get off at the Old Trafford or Wharfside stops, both of which are conveniently within walking distance of the arena. For groups or those who prefer a quick and comfortable journey, a taxi is also a good option. Old Trafford is a place where football history is written, and the atmosphere in the arena is an experience in itself.
Important to consider
Please note that your match ticket is valid for the home section, which means that you will be surrounded by Manchester United's devoted supporters. To follow the rules, you must wear neutral colors or the home team's colors - if you show up in Southampton's colors, you may be denied entry. As long as you support the home team, you can look forward to a magical afternoon filled with passion and football joy.
