AO Arena, Manchester
Join Team Purple Heart Wishes at the AO Arena!
We're looking for volunteers to join Purple Heart Wishes at the AO Arena as country star Cody Johnson heads to Manchester as part of his first-ever UK headline tour, joined by special guest Parker McCollum.
It's another fantastic opportunity to spend an evening with Team PHW, soak up the atmosphere of a huge arena event and, most importantly, help us raise vital funds to grant wishes for adults living with terminal illness.
💜 What will I be doing?
Our volunteers will be working on one of the food and drink kiosks inside the AO Arena, helping to serve customers attending the event.
Purple Heart Wishes receives a percentage of the money earned through the kiosk, which means the time you give directly contributes towards the funds we raise for the charity.
You'll be working alongside other members of Team PHW, and we'll make sure you have the information you need ahead of your shift.
No previous PHW volunteering experience is needed – we'd love to welcome both new and existing volunteers!
⏰ When do I need to be there?
Volunteer shift starts: 5:00pm (TBC)
Please make sure you're able to arrive ready for the start of your shift and commit to the full volunteering period before registering your interest.
The AO Arena hasn't yet announced the event start time for this show, so we can update the listing with further timings once they're confirmed.

Why volunteer with us? 💜
By giving up just a few hours of your time, you'll be directly helping Purple Heart Wishes raise funds to continue granting wishes to adults aged 18–55 who have been diagnosed with a terminal illness, helping them create precious memories with the people they love.
The busier the kiosk, the more we have the opportunity to raise – so every volunteer really does make a difference.

If you can join us on Saturday 24 October, we'd love to have you as part of Team PHW!
