The celebration continues the following day with The Manchester City Treble Trophy Tour: Presented by OKX, where all three treble trophies—Premier League, FA Cup, and UEFA Champions League—will be exhibited together. This rare gathering represents the pinnacle of Manchester City’s 2023 achievements, a season that cemented their place in football history.
From September 5 to 9, the venue will transform into an interactive football experience zone. Fans can explore immersive installations, test their skills in digital challenges, and view a special collection of rare, signed Manchester City jerseys—each telling a unique story from the club’s journey.
Legendary Player Paul Dickov Joins the Celebration
Adding a personal touch to the event is former Manchester City star Paul Dickov, who made over 200 appearances for the club across two stints (1996–2002 and 2006–2008). Known for his loyalty, resilience, and iconic moments on the pitch, Dickov will appear live on stage to share behind-the-scenes stories, career highlights, and reflections on the club’s evolution.
His presence offers fans a rare opportunity to connect with a true City legend—one who has witnessed both the struggles and triumphs that shaped the club into today’s global powerhouse.
OKX and Manchester City: A Partnership Built on Innovation
Since becoming Manchester City’s Official Sleeve Partner in June 2023, OKX has deepened its integration of Web3 technology with sports entertainment. The collaboration extends beyond branding; it’s about creating meaningful experiences for fans worldwide.
Lennix Lai, Global Chief Commercial Officer at OKX, emphasized the significance of this event:
“When we became the Official Sleeve Partner of Manchester City, we committed to delivering exciting experiences to fans globally. Manchester City’s openness to new technologies and its massive international following make it the perfect partner for our brand. We’re proud to be the first organization to bring these historic trophies to Hong Kong—a city that stands at the forefront of regulated digital asset innovation and passionate football culture.”
Hong Kong’s growing role in the digital asset ecosystem makes it a strategic location for such initiatives. As one of Asia’s most dynamic financial hubs with increasing regulatory clarity around cryptocurrencies, the city provides fertile ground for OKX’s mission to bridge traditional industries with blockchain innovation.
Moreover, Hong Kong is home to one of the largest and most engaged Premier League fanbases in Asia. By hosting this event, OKX not only celebrates football but also fosters community engagement between crypto enthusiasts and sports lovers.
Expanding the Global Treble Trophy Tour
This Hong Kong stop is part of a broader international tour—the most extensive trophy journey ever undertaken by Manchester City. With OKX as the presenting partner, the Treble Trophy Tour will reach more countries than any previous campaign, aiming to inspire fans through physical and digital experiences.
The partnership has already introduced groundbreaking Web3 initiatives, including the OKX Collective Metaverse, where fans gain exclusive access to virtual meet-and-greets with players, digital collectibles, and immersive stadium experiences—all powered by blockchain technology.
Such innovations reflect a shared vision: using technology to break down barriers between clubs and supporters, making fandom more interactive, inclusive, and rewarding.
