I am going to see Bon Jovi next Fri at Old Trafford and think we will arrive early afternoon and get a late lunch. I have no idea about the area and wondered can anyone suggest what to do/where to go before the concert. We have car park booked that is 15 mins from the cricket ground.
It's easy we went last year for the first time, there is loads of places to eat and the best bit is that there is a tram that goes to LCC
(A regular service operates from Bury in North Manchester, Altrincham (South Manchester), and from Central Manchester with a connecting service to Salford Quays and Eccles. The Old Trafford Metrolink station is directly outside the stadium).
We went to see Muse there, When you get out of the concert they heard you like cows and there was alot of mooooo's just make sure you get in the right que ( North or South ) and buy a return at the machines when you go, There is china town full of restaurants and there are loads of theatres.
