Snooker fans in Manchester will be able learn how to play and find out more about the sport during the Sportsbet.io Tour Championship in a FREE FanZone which is open to anyone even without tickets.
 
The best 12 players in the world this season, including world number one Judd Trump, World Champion Kyren Wilson and defending champion Mark Williams, will be at Manchester Central in the heart of the city for the Sportsbet.io Tour Championship which runs from March 31st to April 6th.
 
The FanZone in the main foyer will be open to fans of all ages and it’s a perfect opportunity to introduce children to snooker in a fun environment. 
 
There will be a full size Star professional table where you can receive free coaching, take on exciting challenges and find out what it’s like to play on the same table as the pros!
 
There will also be smaller tables which are perfect for beginners or to give children the chance to try snooker for the first time. 
 
A big screen will show the live action so fans can just enjoy watching snooker while enjoying a range of hot and cold food and drink options.

During the week, look out for appearances from current players or legends who will visit the foyer for selfies and autographs. 
 
FanZone is free for everyone but there is still time to buy tickets for the tournament from just £25, to see the all-time greats competing for a huge title.
