Custom Virtual Tour

A facilities tour to showcase attract the worlds greatest footballing talent to Manchester City.

When you support the red half of Manchester, it’s difficult to rave about such a prestigious commission, but when the richest football club in the world ring you on a Tuesday morning asking you to help showcase their entire football campus to prospective players, you put your United socks on and head down to Etihad Stadium at the earliest possible convenience. 

Our Manchester City Virtual Tour explore the entirety of the Etihad Campus, from youth level to the first mens and womens team facilities there was so much confidential equipment captured that the whole tour was never one to be showcased on Google Maps, although to this day we are the only 360 agency to capture facilities for a premier league club for a multitude of fan interaction and promotional media. The project culminated with an on pitch spherical photo on the day Man City lifted their premier league trophy with a 2-0 over West Ham in 2014. 

1 Photo - 57 Million Views

Every wondered what a player sees?

It’s the only way you’ll ever get to see a view from the centre of the pitch, even as a paying spectator you’ll only ever get to view the inside of the stadium from the stands.

Maybe well call this Google Player View.

Attracting Talent

We’ve always recommended our services be used as a recruitment tool, we never imagined that would extend to one of the world biggest football clubs, especially when it comes to attracting footballing superstars!

Our custom virtual tour for Manchester City was to be preloaded to iPads and sent directly to prospective players along with their contracts so they could familiarise themselves with the facilities of their new club.

The Changing Room

The Changing Room is a creative campaign by Brave for their client Xylem, an official partner of Manchester City, they took one of our 360 photos from the centre circle to project a spherical movie against the backdrop of the first team changing room to international footballers, Silva, Gundogan and Aguero, highlighting climate change.

Cityzen Instagram Filter

During the coronavirus pandemic, a whole 6 years after our original virtual tour for Man City we’re still helping them reach their fan base, while stadiums were closed for matches you could still be there and access never been seen areas like the first team dressing room and even take a selfie there with our innovative augmented reality filter for Instagram.

Watch: City fans sing 'we're not really here' in Moscow - and not many of them are!

Manchester City urged fans not to travel to Moscow for their Champions League game with CSKA after the news that it would be played behind closed doors.

But that hasn't stopped a few making the 4,000-mile round trip. They won't be allowed in to watch the first team play CSKA on Tuesday night. But some fans turned up to watch the under-19s in their UEFA Youth League game.

'We're not really here" is one of the Blues' supporters favourite songs. And it was particularly apt in Moscow on Tuesday morning as they braved the cold weather to at least see some football during their trip to Russia.

Beyond the city

“manchester has everything except a beach”, ian brown, the stone roses.

Skyline of Manchester

It’s impossible to be bored in Manchester – there’s always something new just around the corner. You'll love taking advantage of the great relationship between our campus and the city centre, but living here also means it’s a great base for exploring the rest of the UK (and even further afield) while you are a student here.

The iconic  Lake District  is England’s largest national park and boasts breath-taking lakes and soaring moorland. There are bustling towns, quiet valleys and plenty of different activities to try out both in the water and on the fells. Take a train from Manchester to Windermere where you'll find a fantastic bus network that will allow you to explore extensively without the need for a car.

The  Peak District National Park  is also close by and accessible by either public transport or car. With its excellent walking and cycling routes, camping/glamping opportunities, boutique hotels and traditional English villages (complete with plenty of tea shops and pubs for those all-important restorative breaks from being active), this is another popular spot with Mancunians on weekends and holidays.

Where can you find an inland artificial surfing lake, Europe’s longest zip slide and a sub-terrain trampoline park, Kashmiri goats in a Victorian seaside resort, a mountaintop railway and medieval castles?   The answer is North Wales  – and it’s just a few hours by train or car from Manchester. This area also boasts beautiful coastlines – that's why many Mancunians love heading here for the weekend.

Keen to get 'far from the madding crowd'? You will find some quintessentially English sights – as well as some landscapes you might not believe are really in England – in our  Areas of Outstanding National Beauty . These are protected areas recognised for their ecological, cultural or historical value to the country.

You can also take the opportunity to soak up the culture and history in one of the capital cities of our four nations, with  London , Edinburgh ,  Cardiff  and  Belfast  all just a train-ride or short flight away.

Likewise you can take a trip to one of the historic towns in England such as Oxford, Stratford-upon-Avon (Shakespeare’s birthplace) or Whitby, with the  International Society  – this is a very affordable and fun way to see a bit more of the country and make new friends.

And of course, Manchester’s international airport is just 30 minutes away from our campus, which opens up a  host of destinations in Europe  and many  long-haul options .

Check out the  My Manchester News YouTube channel  to see what our students say about the trips they’ve taken since starting their studies and student life in Manchester.
