AO Arena’s 30th Birthday Bash Catered b y Zouk

Zouk Serves Up a Feast for AO Arena’s 30th Anniversary

Zouk was honoured to be part of an iconic moment for Manchester’s entertainment scene as we catered the AO Arena’s 30th birthday celebrations. One of the UK’s busiest and most-loved venues, the AO Arena marked the milestone with a day of festivities — and Zouk brought the flavour!

From freshly prepared Indian wraps and vibrant street food snacks to a show-stopping birthday cake. Our team delivered a luxury buffet that celebrated the best of Zouk. Our skilled pastry chef, Umesh, handcrafted a bespoke birthday cake to crown the occasion in style.
