Manchester Storm will officially launch the 2026/27 season with a special fan event at the AO Arena on Friday 4th September 2026, bringing supporters together for their first chance to meet the new team.
The Manchester Storm Season Launch will introduce the players set to pull on the Storm jersey in 2026/27, alongside coaches and key figures from across the organisation, as excitement builds towards the start of the new campaign.
A major moment of the evening will be the live unveiling of Manchester Storm’s brand-new 2026/27 jerseys, giving those in attendance the opportunity to be among the first to see the team's new look for the upcoming season in person.
Supporters will also hear directly from the people behind the Storm through exclusive interviews with players, coaches and members of the organisation. They will discuss their ambitions for the new campaign, preparations for the season and what it will take to make 2026/27 one to remember.
Live Q&A sessions will put supporters at the heart of the event, providing the opportunity to hear players and coaches answer questions from the Storm fanbase.
Away from the hockey, the Season Launch will feature live music and entertainment, creating a night designed to celebrate the club, its supporters and the beginning of a new chapter.
Manchester Storm will also use the event to reveal further details of the 2026/27 season, with those inside the AO Arena among the first to discover what lies ahead.
The Season Launch marks the first opportunity for supporters to see the Storm together and welcome the team ahead of the opening puck drop of the new season.
