O2 Apollo, Manchester

29 May 2026

Butt and Scholes: No Nonsense brings two of England and Manchester United’s most straight-talking legends to the stage at O2 Apollo Manchester on 29 May 2026. Nicky Butt and Paul Scholes, key figures from one of football’s most iconic eras, come together for an unfiltered live conversation packed with sharp banter, honest reflection and behind-the-scenes stories from the dressing room and the biggest matches of their careers. Hosted by James Nesbitt.

The night will also see Butt and Scholes dissect the 2025/26 season, delivering their trademark no-frills analysis on the moments that mattered, the talking points that divided opinion, and what lies ahead. With the World Cup on the horizon, they’ll look forward to the biggest tournament in the game, discussing the players, teams and storylines to watch—delivered exactly as you’d expect: no nonsense.
