Hotels for Gracie Abrams: The Look at My Life Tour

Expect a night built around close, confessional songwriting rather than spectacle. Gracie Abrams draws a young, largely female crowd who know every lyric and sing the quiet parts as loudly as the choruses. It's a midweek evening show, so the room fills early and empties out at a reasonable hour after. Fans travelling in groups tend to make a full evening of it, arriving well before doors.

One of the UK's largest indoor arenas, Co-op Live sits alongside Manchester City's stadium in the city's eastern events campus, built specifically for big-ticket music tours and live entertainment. The surrounding district is sleek and modern, designed to move large crowds, with central Manchester's nightlife a quick tram ride away.

Metrolink services stop right on the campus, linking straight into town. Booking a room near the arena or in the centre lets you reach the tram easily and avoid the late-night scramble.
