Manchester City have released a limited run of special edition shirts featuring Stockport band and lifelong fans of the Club, Blossoms, to help support fundraising for City in the Community’s 40th anniversary.

Etihad Airways has donated the front-of-shirt space for the special product drop, as the band’s logo takes centre stage on a new run of the 2024/25 season’s away shirt – one of the Club’s most popular designs in recent years.

For this limited collection, the Etihad Airways logo will move to the sleeve of the shirts and will feature alongside a CITC logo on the inside neck.

Profits from sales of the shirts will be donated to CITC to support its 40th anniversary fundraising.

NEW CITY STORE: WHAT’S ON GUIDE

Blossoms secured their fifth Official UK Number One album with ‘Songs From The Wedding Cake’ in October 2026 and are now set to embark on an arena tour, including two dates at Manchester’s Co-op Live.

The band will deliver brand-new tracks like latest single ‘Meet Me In Love’ alongside a setlist of iconic hits for two definitive hometown shows.

A limited run of the shirts will be available in sizes small to large, exclusively at the new flagship CityStore this Thursday at 10am, with further shirts released around Blossoms’ upcoming tour dates in November and December at the Co-op Live.

City in the Community’s 40 Years campaign brings together fans, participants, partners and staff for a calendar of celebration activities, fundraising opportunities and enhanced storytelling.

To bolster the campaign, Manchester City will be matching all fan donations made to CITC on a pound-for-pound* basis throughout the 2026/27 season.

Supporters who want to play their part can also download CITC’s new fundraising pack, packed with ideas, inspiration and practical guidance to help individuals, groups and communities raise funds in celebration of ‘40 Years’.
