This October, our partner, Global Sports Experiences, hosted an exciting EPL Fan Experience in Manchester, UK, allowing fans like New England Surf player Aiden Oduor to dive into the heart of English football. The trip included exclusive access to iconic stadiums, thrilling matches, and the vibrant culture of Manchester.

The group stayed in a centrally located 4-star hotel near the famous Arndale Shopping Center and the lively Printworks district, which is known for its dining, pubs, and entertainment. Aiden appreciated the opportunity to explore the nearby landmarks, including the Manchester Arena and the National Football Museum.

A significant highlight of the trip was the behind-the-scenes tours of two legendary stadiums. At Old Trafford, the historic home of Manchester United, the group learned about the club’s rich history, walking through the halls that showcase the legacy of the game. The visit to the Etihad Stadium was equally memorable, where Aiden and other guests got to see the executive area where players arrive before the game and stood in the locker room where his favorite players prepare for matches.

The match day experience was filled with excitement. Aiden attended Manchester United’s game with exclusive hospitality access at the club’s famous Museum. The following day, the group visited Molineux Stadium for the Wolves’ face-off with Manchester City, securing seats right behind the goal, which added to the thrill of the day.

The adventure continued with a trip to Liverpool for the “Magical Mystery Tour,” where the group explored Beatles landmarks, including the iconic Cavern Club. They capped off their Liverpool experience with a tour of Anfield, Liverpool FC’s renowned stadium, walking through the same halls as football legends.

From stadium tours and matchday hospitality to comfortable accommodations, Aiden’s October EPL Fan Experience with GSE provided a valuable opportunity for young players like him to gain insights into the sport and aspire to one day share the field with their football heroes.

Looking ahead, GSE is preparing for another exciting EPL Fan Experience set for December 6-10 in London. This exclusive tour will feature a visit to the Emirates Stadium, home of Arsenal FC, and a behind-the-scenes tour of Stamford Bridge, the iconic home of Chelsea FC. Fans can anticipate thrilling match days, including:

• Match Day 1: Crystal Palace vs. Manchester City
• Match Day 2: Spurs vs. Chelsea
• Match Day 3: West Ham United vs. Wolverhampton Wanderers

This London experience promises the same GSE attention to detail, exceptional hospitality, and insider access to some of the EPL’s most exciting games and venues, providing fans like Aiden with unforgettable memories.
