The event will run from 9:30am to 5:00pm in the East Stand and is open to men aged 64–66 who have not previously been screened for AAA - a serious condition that affects around 5% of men in the UK over the age of 65 and often develops without any warning signs.
A rupture can be fatal in more than 80% of cases, but early detection through a quick, simple and painless scan can dramatically reduce the risk of life‑threatening complications.
Alongside AAA screening, attendees will also be able to access a range of other health and wellness resources at the event, from blood pressure and lipids check, cancer and health screening, smoking cessation, employment guidance, carers’ support, community activity opportunities, and dedicated spaces for men’s mental health, including presence from Andy’s Man Club, the event provides an excellent opportunity to prioritise health.
Furthermore, men who attend the screening will be entered into a free prize draw, with the chance to win:
- A signed Manchester City 2025/26 Home shirt
- A Family Tour Voucher of the Etihad stadium
- Two General Admission tickets to the final game of the 2025/26 Season
Booking is essential, and places are limited. Local men and eligible supporters are strongly encouraged to secure their appointment as soon as possible by contacting the AAA Screening Team via the following methods:
