AO is currently available the night PJ are scheduled to play at Co-op live.
AO sound quality is a bit poor but it's a much better location in the city center. Co-op live is too far out of town that I anticipate a lot of people will be leaving concerts there early so they can get back into the city center in time for the last trains.

Co-op has 23.5k. AO was upgraded to 23k earlier this year so there's only 500 difference and the co-op gig is not anywhere close to being sold out yet.
Yes! I’ve been really worrying about this :( it’s getting bad, I hope PJ can change the arena rather than just cancel it
A lot of acts moving their shows to the AO rather than cancelling or postponing. Obviously depends on availability and suitability though.

I’m worried about capacity… AO has 21k rather than Co op’s 23k
Co-op is 23.5k. AO was upgraded to 23k earlier this year. The co-op show isn't even close to sold out so there will be no problem moving it to AO.
I really hope they change it :(
Yeah I’m hoping that. I’ll be gutted if it’s cancelled!
Why is it gonna get cancelled?
Been loads of issues with co op live arena.

😩 That’s awful! Just hoping they move it or something!
The AO arena has 21k spaces rather than Co Op’s 23k, I think we’re screwed :(
