⚠️ Important Fixture Date Information
We have checked the wider football schedule and this fixture is expected to remain within its scheduled Premier League weekend. However, the Carabao Cup fifth round is scheduled to take place during the same week, so the available match dates may depend on whether either club progresses in that competition. The final television schedule is expected to be announced during the week commencing Monday 19 October 2026.
As match tickets must be purchased in advance, this tour may need to be rescheduled if the fixture is selected for television coverage or moved to accommodate the Carabao Cup schedule.
The match could be moved to Friday 18 December, Sunday 20 December or Monday 21 December 2026. If the fixture changes, the tour may depart on the revised match date and return the following day.
By booking, you confirm that all passengers are available to travel on Friday 18 December, Saturday 19 December, Sunday 20 December or Monday 21 December 2026, depending on the confirmed fixture date.
If the fixture date changes and you are unable to travel on the revised date, we will be unable to offer a refund or transfer, as match tickets and other arrangements will already have been purchased and confirmed.

Man City v Hull City
December brings a festive Premier League fixture to the Etihad as Manchester City welcome newly promoted Hull City on Saturday 19 December 2026. The match marks Hull’s first top-flight visit to Manchester City for almost a decade, following their return to the Premier League through the 2025/26 Championship play-offs. City have dominated the recent history of this matchup, losing only one of their nine previous Premier League meetings with Hull and winning both encounters during the clubs’ last season together in the division.
The most recent meeting at the Etihad came in April 2017, when City secured a 3-1 victory through goals involving Sergio Agüero and Fabian Delph, having already beaten Hull 3-0 away earlier that season. The scoreline in Manchester was comfortable, but Hull had made City work considerably harder during the reverse fixture, holding them until the closing stages before three second-half goals settled the contest. Almost ten years later, the Tigers return with the momentum and excitement of promotion, while City will be looking to extend their strong record against them and deliver a convincing home performance just before Christmas.
The following day we head back to the ground, where you can Immerse yourself in the City story on the Manchester City Stadium Tour and visit areas of the Stadium not usually available to the public.
