What began as a chance to share a personal story became an evening Emily will never forget.
Thanks to influencers Sasha and Milly, supported by the incredibly generous Boots team, 22 people were invited to experience Ariana Grande’s closing night at The O2 from a private box.
For Emily, those 22 places carried a powerful meaning. After sharing her connection to the Manchester Arena Attack, the significance of the number 22, and her journey as an Ariana fan, she was incredibly grateful to be chosen for such a special experience. From attending Ariana’s concert as a young girl to growing up with her music through different chapters of life, being there for the closing night felt like a truly full-circle moment.
The evening was unforgettable — not only because of the performance, but because of the kindness, care and generosity shown by everyone involved. A huge thank you to the Boots team, Sasha and Milly, and the wonderful group brought together that night for making Emily feel so welcomed, comfortable and supported. It was more than a concert. It was a chance to make new friendships, honour meaningful memories and create moments that will last a lifetime.
From Manchester to The O2, it was an emotional, unforgettable night that meant the world.
