    Sponsorships

    We bring the buzz and the energy to everything we do. That’s electricals, delivery, installation, and yes, even sponsorships.

    As the official naming partner of AO Arena, we help people create memories that last a lifetime in one of Manchester’s most famous event spaces. After all, making people smile is what we do best.

    In addition to the AO Arena, we also support a number of sports teams. And the list is growing. From grassroots to professional teams, we’re proud to have built meaningful partnerships that help us stay true to our AO values.

    Check out how we’re making sure millions of people see our big green smile up and down the country and where you can catch a glimpse.

    Official naming rights partner of the AO Arena

    Our sponsorship is currently set to run for a decade - right up until 2030. A time frame that’ll see hundreds of millions of visitors walk through the doors every year. Since our sponsorship began in September 2020, we’ve given away £50,000 worth of prizes, as well as surprising over 12,000 people with incredible gifts, experiences, and upgrades.

    As part of our mission to future-proof the venue, the AO Arena has undergone a £50m redevelopment – including a new VIP entrance, a member-only bar and restaurant, and improved customer safety measures.

    Official Principal Partner of Manchester Thunder

    Manchester Thunder are the four times Netball Super League (NSL) champions, as well as being the first Super League club to have set up an academy offering elite coaching to talented youngsters. It’s fair to say they’re an ambitious and passionate club and always open to anyone who shares its vision, which is why we’ve become partners.

    Our sponsorship will see the AO logo pop up in lots of places - including on the front of their distinctive yellow and black dresses. We also hope to offer strategic support in the team’s journey towards the full professionalism of netball and allow Thunder to invest in other exciting, long-term initiatives.
