Manchester United’s Group Managing Director, Richard Arnold, comments:
“Theatre of Dreams is an entirely new sports entertainment experience. It is our home away from home. Sir Bobby Charlton famously described our Old Trafford stadium as ‘the theatre of dreams’, and now we are able to bring that dream alive for our Chinese fans. This represents a strengthening of our longstanding commitment to China and a deepening of our relationship with Manchester United fans across the country. Our guests will discover new, exciting, fun, and inspiring ways to engage with the club and one another.”
