Stop Crying Your Heart Out, Oasis Are Back in Manchester!

Do I need to say more? Here is the hot tea from the first leg of the Oasis 2025 Summer Reunion Tour!

The year’s biggest reunion? Sorted. After years of “will they, won’t they,” the Gallagher brothers are finally back on stage together — and it’s sending the UK into full-blown Britpop nostalgia mode. Cardiff got the first taste of the Oasis 2025 Summer Reunion Tour, with two blockbuster shows last weekend that fans are still buzzing about.

Where is Oasis performing?

Heaton Park, Manchester.

When will doors open?

At 3pm sharp!

Where can you get tickets?

Ticketmaster, StubHub and resale sites

Oasis Live

But if there’s one city where this reunion hits different, it’s Manchester. And Heaton Park? That’s more than a venue — it’s sacred ground for Oasis fans.

The lads last played here in 2009. This time, they’re dialling it up: five massive homecoming shows, all tipped to be nothing short of historic.

The Dates You Need to Tattoo on Your Brain

Oasis at Heaton Park — here’s when it’s happening:

🗓️ Friday, July 11
🗓️ Saturday, July 12
🗓️ Wednesday, July 16
🗓️ Saturday, July 19
🗓️ Sunday, July 20

Expect tens of thousands of fans, sunshine (fingers crossed), and the loudest ‘Wonderwall’ singalong Manchester’s ever heard.

What Time’s the Party Kicking Off?

Doors open: 3 PM sharp — earlier than the London, Edinburgh, or Cardiff dates. Music curfew is at 10:30 PM.

As for when Oasis will actually hit the stage? They stepped on at 8:15 PM in Cardiff, so plan for something similar — but keep your eyes peeled for final set times.

Who’s Warming Things Up?

It’s a Britpop double-whammy before the main event:

Cast — expect them around 6 PM
Richard Ashcroft (The Verve legend himself) — roughly 7 PM

Again, these are Cardiff timings. Manchester’s schedule will be confirmed closer to show day.

What’s the Setlist Looking Like?

The Cardiff shows gave fans a glorious mix of hits, deep cuts, and pure nostalgia. Here’s what went down on night one:

  • Hello
  • Acquiesce
  • Morning Glory
  • Some Might Say
  • Bring It On Down
  • Cigarettes & Alcohol
  • Fade Away
  • Supersonic
  • Roll With It
  • Talk Tonight
  • Half The World Away
  • Little By Little
  • D’You Know What I Mean?
  • Stand By Me
  • Cast No Shadow
  • Slide Away
  • Whatever
  • Live Forever
  • Rock ‘n’ Roll Star
  • The Masterplan
  • Don’t Look Back In Anger
  • Wonderwall
  • Champagne Supernova

Word on the street is there’ve been a few lyric changes and surprise dedications — so expect the unexpected.

Still After Tickets? It’s Tricky… But Not Impossible

Every Manchester date sold out in minutes, obviously. But keep the faith:

  • Ticketmaster — Shows ‘low availability’ but no live tickets right now
  • Stubhub & resale sites — A few floating around, but play it safe when buying

If you’re desperate, eyes on those pages — you never know.

What Can You Bring (and What’s a No-Go)?

Bag rules:
✔️ One bag per person, smaller than A4
❌ No backpacks

Banned items include:

  • Big bags

Getting There: Your Heaton Park Game Plan

From Manchester City Centre:

Metrolink Green Line — straight to the venue from Victoria Station
Buses: x35, 59, 90, 135, 149, 156, 164, 484

Post-show warning: Getting out is a mission. Expect crowded trams, buses, taxis — walking back could take up to two hours depending on the sea of people.

The Weather’s Looking Mint

It’s Manchester, so no promises — but the forecast for opening weekend is lush:

☀️ Friday, July 11: Highs of 27°C, lows around 22°C, no rain on the radar
☀️ Saturday, July 12: Even toastier, 24-27°C, with clear skies expected

Wonderwall’s never sounded so good.
