The One Love Manchester benefit gig could become an annual event to remember those killed in the Arena bombing.

The huge concert saw an array of pop stars take to the stage at Emirates Old Trafford on Sunday to raise money for those affected by the terror attack two weeks ago.

More than 50,000 fans packed out the cricket ground to pay tribute to the 22 killed and those injured in the blast on May 22.

More than £2.5m was raised during the concert for the We Love Manchester Emergency Fund. The total amount raised stands at more than £10m .

People are now calling for the event to be put on every year.

US singer Miley Cyrus hinted One Love Manchester could return following discussions with organiser Ariana Grande.

Cyrus said the concert could be ‘an annual thing’ as she commended Ariana for returning to the city just a fortnight after the tragedy took place following her Manchester Arena concert.

Mancunians took to Twitter after the concert to ask for its return.

An online petition calling for the gig to put on annually has been signed hundreds of times.

Melissa Clark said: “I think this is an amazing idea. Ariana Grande, at 23-years-old did an amazing job.”

Beth O’Connor tweeted: “If One Love Manchester was an annual concert, I would go every year. I watched every minute and cried every minute.”

And Edwin Hodgson said: “What better way to remember those killed than sharing something each one of them loved?”

Manchester council’s city centre chief Pat Karney hasn't rule out the event returning.

He told the M.E.N: “A number of people have been in touch with us to see if it could be an annual event.

“It will be part of the discussions with the families about a permanent memorial.”

Trafford council chief Sean Anstee, whose borough covers the cricket ground, said: “We were proud to host the One Love Manchester concert at Emirates Old Trafford.

“We are no stranger to hosting large events in Trafford and would work with our partners to look at any requests in the future.”
