THE THREE LIONS HAVE LANDED AT MEDIACITY
This summer, we're not just watching the World Cup - we're hosting it.

Creator clashes. Kickabouts. Live podcasts, DJ sets, fan experiences. MediaCity's been electric all tournament long.

And behind it all: BBC's FIFA World Cup coverage, made right here, with our Studios and Post at the centre of the action.

Every match. Every moment. Made here.

The story's not over yet.

Barry’s Manchester just broke out of the studio 🚨

The iconic Red Room is leaving the building and taking over our Piazza pitch for one night only.

Same HIIT intensity you know and love — bands, bodyweight, off-the-tread runs — but this time you’re the one on the pitch. Match-day energy, workout-day burn.

💥 Outdoor HIIT class
💥 Bands, bodyweight, Barry’s-style burn
💥 Run the pitch — no treadmill required
💥 Big tunes, bigger energy

16 July | 18:30 - 19:30

Spaces are limited — get yourself booked in through the link in our bio.
