The historic O2 Ritz Manchester opened in 1928 and is one of the main concert venues in Manchester, in the north of England.
Originally a dance hall with a suspended dance floor and rotating stage, this beautiful space has transformed into a live music venue over the decades.
The venue hosts a very active schedule with many rock concerts.
The audience can choose to stand on the main floor or enjoy the view from the mezzanine.
