Manchester City Color Codes
The official Manchester City public website identifies the club as Manchester City F.C. and provides official club information, fixtures, ticketing and stadium pages. The Premier League also lists Manchester City on its official club page. However, publicly accessible official sources do not provide a complete downloadable color table for HEX, RGB, CMYK and Pantone values. For that reason, the values below are presented as best available digital estimates, not as official brand specifications.
The best available Manchester City color references are commonly used across team branding, uniforms, digital graphics, fan designs, presentations and web projects. Always use the club’s official brand guidelines or request permission from the club for commercial, merchandise or official branding use.

Important Accuracy Note
Manchester City has an official brand guidelines portal, but the publicly visible page requires JavaScript and login access. Because the full public brand specification could not be confirmed from accessible official club, brand or Premier League pages, the Pantone values are listed as “Not officially published.” RGB and CMYK values are marked as best available estimates rather than official specifications.
