City Social Bars - Manchester City Hospitality at Etihad Stadium
Four social bars at the Etihad - 93:20 Lounge, Kits Sports Bar, The 1894 Bar and Commonwealth Bar
Manchester City run four themed social bars at the Etihad - the 93:20 Lounge, Kits Sports Bar, The 1894 Bar and the Commonwealth Bar. All four pair padded executive seating with a relaxed lounge, a contactless bar and a matchday programme. What separates them is the tier you sit in, the theme of the room, and how much is actually included: 93:20 is food and drink to purchase throughout, Kits adds inclusive soft and hot drinks plus one beer at half-time, and the 1894 and Commonwealth Bars sit higher with a VIP entrance and complimentary half-time refreshments.

How City Social Bars compares
The four social bars are the Etihad's relaxed end - a good seat, a room to drink in, and most of the food and drink bought on the day. Manager's Corner sits alongside them in spirit but with its own bar and a South West corner seat. Citizens is the step up to an inclusive three-course buffet on the halfway line. Above those, the Green Room brings silver-service dining and a complimentary bar, and the Tunnel Club and Tunnel Club Premier are a different proposition entirely - pitchside access, the glass tunnel and multi-course dining.

City Social Bars FAQs
What is the difference between the 93:20, Kits, 1894 and Commonwealth bars?
All four are relaxed lounges with padded seats, a contactless bar and a matchday programme. The differences are the tier and the drinks. 93:20 sits in the middle tier at Blocks 109, 110 and 121, with everything to purchase. Kits is middle tier near the halfway line and includes soft and hot drinks plus one beer at half-time. The 1894 Bar is East Stand middle tier with a VIP entrance and complimentary half-time refreshments. The Commonwealth Bar is the lowest and most central, on the halfway line in the East Stand lower tier.
Is food or drink included in the City social bars?
Mostly not, and it is worth being clear about it. All four run a contactless bar with food available to purchase. Kits Sports Bar includes soft and hot drinks and one beer at half-time. The 1894 Bar includes complimentary half-time refreshments. Beyond that, what you eat and drink is bought on the day. If inclusive catering matters, Citizens or the Green Room are the packages to ask about.
Which social bar has the best seats?
The Commonwealth Bar, on the halfway line in the East Stand lower tier - closest to the pitch and most central of the four. The 1894 Bar and Kits sit in the middle tier, and 93:20 covers the long side and the curve. Seat position is the main reason for the price difference between them.
What are the lounge opening times?
Between 1.5 and 2.5 hours before kick-off depending on the bar and which supplier releases it, and an hour after the final whistle. We confirm the exact time for your fixture in writing before you book rather than quoting a general figure.
What is the dress code at Etihad Stadium hospitality?
The social bars have no formal dress code and are deliberately relaxed. The Tunnel Club asks you to dress to impress - no shorts, football tops or caps - and the Green Room and Tunnel Club Premier are the same. Away colours are not appropriate in the home hospitality areas.
Is this official Manchester City hospitality?
The packages are sourced through our network of authorised hospitality suppliers rather than the secondary market, and every booking is confirmed to you in writing before you commit. DN Global is not Manchester City's official hospitality provider and does not present itself as one - what we guarantee is that the facility and inclusions you are quoted are the ones you receive.
Can I book this package for a group?
Yes - DN Global arrange Etihad hospitality for groups of all sizes, and seats are confirmed together rather than scattered. Tell us your numbers, your fixture and the occasion and your account manager will confirm what can be sourced.
How do I get to the Etihad Stadium?
The Etihad Campus Metrolink stop sits beside the ground, about ten minutes from Piccadilly Gardens on the blue line. Manchester Piccadilly is a twenty-five minute walk or a short tram ride. Traffic around the ground after full time is heavy, so allow for it. DN Global can arrange private transfers as part of your package.
