As the football season moves into its decisive spring period, supporters across the North West have plenty to look forward to. From new stadium chapters to historic grounds steeped in legacy, March offers a series of fixtures that promise atmosphere, anticipation and memorable moments.
In Liverpool, it remains a landmark season for Everton F.C. as the club continues its first campaign at Hill Dickinson Stadium. The 52,000-seat waterfront venue has quickly established itself as one of the most striking new arenas in English football. With European ambitions still in sight, upcoming home fixtures against Burnley F.C. on Tuesday 3 March (7.30pm) and Chelsea F.C. on Saturday 21 March (5.30pm) carry added significance for the Toffees.
Across Stanley Park, Liverpool F.C. continue their pursuit of silverware under Arne Slot. Few venues in world football rival the atmosphere of Anfield, where history and expectation combine in equal measure. March sees Liverpool host Tottenham Hotspur F.C. on Sunday 15 March (4.30pm), while later in the month the club welcomes Borussia Dortmund Legends for a special charity fixture against Liverpool Legends on Saturday 28 March (3pm), an occasion that blends nostalgia with purpose.
Meanwhile, in Manchester, Manchester United F.C. are enjoying renewed optimism as they compete for a Champions League place. Old Trafford, long known as the Theatre of Dreams, remains one of the game’s most iconic stages. Home fixture Aston Villa F.C. on Sunday 15 March (2.00pm) offers supporters the chance to witness a pivotal period in the campaign.
For those travelling to matches, Hillbark Hotel & Spa provides a calm and refined base within the grounds of Royden Park. Conveniently positioned for both Liverpool and Manchester, the hotel offers a peaceful retreat following the intensity of matchday. Transport to and from stadiums can be arranged, alongside airport transfers from Liverpool John Lennon Airport or Manchester Airport. For guests arriving privately, an on-site helipad ensures a seamless experience.
After ninety minutes of drama, returning to tranquil surroundings, considered dining in The Dining Room and a relaxed evening in Contessa’s Bar offers a welcome contrast to the energy of the stands. As the season reaches its defining weeks, there is no better time to combine top-flight football with a stay that balances excitement with comfort.
