There has been another new advert applied to a tram in Manchester with 3003 receiving its first ever full wrap at the end of the first full week of December 2025. This is another dark based advert and sees the tram advertising the 2025 BRIT Awards.
The BRIT Awards will be taking place at Co-op Live in Manchester on Saturday 28th February 2026 and to publicise the fact 3003 will now be running in a new wrap. It is of the usual Manchester full wrap style with the ends of the tram remaining devoid of vinyls whilst the advert is on the rest of the tram, and this includes some on the windows.
This is in fact 3003’s very first full wrap, although earlier this year (June-July 2025) it did carry partial adverts for the Oasis concerts at Heaton Park.
As well as external vinyls the tram also includes adverts on the interior ceiling.
3003 and its BRIT Awards advert meet the camera at Trafford Bar as the rear unit of a double heading into Piccadilly.
