Manchester's Co-op Live arena, UK's largest indoor venue, opens with Elbow after 3 postponements due to ventilation issues.

Manchester's Co-op Live arena, the UK's largest indoor venue, will open with a performance by rock band Elbow after postponing its opening show three times due to issues with the venue's ventilation and air conditioning system. After an inspection found the issue to be an "isolated manufacturing default," the £365 million venue is now set to proceed with the opening. Previous scheduled performances by comedian Peter Kay, the Black Keys, Olivia Rodrigo, and Keane were affected by the venue's issues.
