Oasis Reunion at Heaton Park in Manchester: start time, tickets, potential setlist and what you need to know

Time Out2 days ago
Oasis' 2025 summer reunion tour is, for many Brits, the year's most hotly anticipated event – and it's already underway. The Gallagher brothers got back together last Friday and Saturday for their first reunion shows in Cardiff and delivered two spectacular shows that were worth every bit of the hype, with top-notch performances and setlists packed with hits not heard for decades. Over 900,000 tickets have been sold for the brothers' UK shows in Cardiff, Manchester, London and Edinburgh, where they'll play some of the country's grandest, most legendary arenas.
Nowhere, however, is the Oasis hype quite like it is in Manchester. The Gallaghers' shows at Heaton Park aren't just more tour stops: these are homecoming dates at a venue that has a special place in the band's history. Oasis played three nights at Heaton Park back in 2009 and this time they've upped the ante, lining up five dates.
It's no exaggeration to say that Oasis' 2025 Heaton Park shows are expected to be full-blown cultural events. If you're lucky enough to have nabbed a ticket, here's everything you need to know about the shows – from timings and transport to any remaining ticket availability.

How to get to Heaton Park
Getting to Heaton Park from Manchester city centre is easy enough, with the Green line running directly to the venue from Victoria. Buses x35, 59, 90, 135, 149, 156, 164 and 484 also serve the park.
It's worth bearing in mind that it is notoriously tricky to get away from Heaton Park, post-gig. The walk to the city centre is long (up to two hours, depending on the crowds), and buses, trams and taxis will be very crowded.

Weather forecast
The Gallagher brothers' reunion gigs in Manchester are taking place over nine days, so naturally there'll be wide variation in the weather. The opening weekend, however, is looking excellent.
For the first two gigs (July 11-12), here's the forecast:
Friday July 11 – the weather this Friday is looking fantastic. With highs of 27C and lows of 22C, the Met Office doesn't reckon Oasis' first Manchester show will get any rain.
Saturday July 12 – Saturday is forecasted to be even balmier than Friday, with the Met Office predicting that temperatures will range from 24C to 27C. There also won't be much wind or rain.
Where to buy official Oasis merchandise
The band has a pop-up with official merch at The Avenue, Spinningfields, which is open daily from 10am to 7.30pm. The store will remain open until July 27.

Have the Gallaghers suffered from ‘naked classism'?

Though I'd never read any books about Oasis before this one, I'd have bet it would be impossible to write boringly about the band – for two reasons: namely Noel and Liam Gallagher. As the most entertaining men in music, the former could be talking to a goldfish and still end up riffing in an entirely fresh, witty and profound way, while the latter is probably the greatest natural clown since Buster Keaton. I'll put my cards on the table and admit that I've got a chronic crush on Noel. When I interviewed him for the Sunday Times nearly ten years ago, the simpering, gushing and giggling on the tape sounded as though a coachload of Japanese schoolgirls had joined us. He has spoken of how he enjoys the company of journalists – the mark of a reckless man with nothing to hide. So I felt pleased at the prospect of this book, but also potentially envious of the relationship that P.J. Harrison might have had with the object of my affection. It has an introduction by Andrew Loog Oldham that reads a bit like a crazy drunk buttonholing you at a party and gabbling about this brilliant guy you just have to meet. The press release seems pretty starstruck with the author, too: A former label owner who has spent time on the road and in the studio with the band, treats fans to the inside story… Harrison spent every day around the band, getting to know their management and developed friendly relationships with them. I am not without sympathy for those who seek to write about the liveliest of the arts and fail woefully. I have done so several times myself. Being eloquently nasty is far easier for the writer and often more amusing for the reader. So just as I managed to produce a dull newspaper interview with one of the world's least dull men, I had my fears about the outright fan-boy Harrison managing an entire book. The first hurdle is that he means well (and was there ever fainter praise?). He writes: I'll start by saying that I have a huge amount of respect for any self-made individual who has excelled at the top of a highly competitive field…I grew up in the same class and geographical space as the Gallaghers… often their incredible achievements are obscured by naked classism in the British media. This is true; but there's a reason why Richard Hoggart couldn't write an Oasis song. The uses of literacy and the ability to create a great piece of music are worlds apart, and not going to university certainly never did the Gallagher boys any harm. Indeed, it could be said that had Britain been less class-bound the extremely clever Noel might easily have succumbed to further education, got a 'good' job and been lost to music forever. When it's not trying hard to be a political text, the book does a good imitation of a gossip column. Harrison positively pants over the minutiae of the brothers' love lives. I found it amusing until he describes the betrayed second wife Nicole Appleton's 'songbird's wings' being 'melted by Liam's red giant', and dubs Debbie Gwyther 'the Liam Whisperer'. She is the prospective third wife who appears to have helped him calm down somewhat (though arthritis and hip replacements might also have contributed). At this point, to quote Dorothy Parker, Tonstant Weader fwowed up. But to be fair I hadn't previously realised what dry wit Liam can display. Dismissing his brother as being too rich, he once sneered: 'Noel lives in a £17 million house. That changes you. You have appropriate furniture, appropriate kitchens and appropriate red wine that Bono's recommended.' The book's basic problem is this: how can a quicksilver talent as precious (in a good way) as Noel Gallagher's be written about without the author sounding precious (in a bad way)? It's a crime to which I plead guilty in the first degree. But despite its faults, this is an engaging book – and a decent companion to the Oasis mania that is sweeping the nation.

Aldi introduce strict new rule for all customers on today's new £14.95 item

Aldi introduce strict new rule for all customers on today's new £14.95 item Aldi's new limited-edition item has been released in one of its Manchester stores today, ahead of Oasis' return to the city this week, and the retailer has enforced a strict limit on how many items customers can buy (Image: Aldi ) Aldi has declared a strict one-item-per-customer rule on a newly launched £14.95 product, unveiled today in one of its Manchester branches. Customers will only be permitted to purchase one of the supermarket's new limited-edition Supernova Champagne bottles, which have been released today at Aldi's Bury New Road store, in anticipation of Oasis' Manchester concerts. ‌ The introduction of these £14.95 bottles coincides with Oasis commencing their reunion tour last Friday in Cardiff, at the Principality Stadium. ‌ As the Gallagher brothers are set to perform their first hometown gig since their split this week, these commemorative bottles have been exclusively released at Aldi's Bury New Road branch - conveniently located near Heaton Park where the brothers are scheduled to perform on Friday, July 11. Stay updated with our City Life newsletter here, reports the Manchester Evening News. Man arrested after allegedly selling fake Oasis tickets ahead of Cardiff gigs READ MORE: Given the limited availability of these bottles, customers are encouraged to act swiftly to secure one of these celebratory beverages. However, Aldi hopes that by implementing a one-bottle-per-customer policy, it will enable as many Oasis fans as possible to acquire the drink. Article continues below Aldi, renamed 'Aldeh' for the Oasis gigs, has now completely sold out of a super-popular limited item (Image: PA ) These new bottles feature Aldi's award-winning Veuve Monsigny Champagne Brut, but have been given a fresh 'Supernova' design in honour of Oasis's popular Britpop hit. With the bottles being revealed in-store today, July 7, Oasis enthusiasts have already started flocking to the Bury New Road branch to get their hands on one of these collectables. ‌ One enthusiast from Manchester, Derrick Smith, shared: "I left at quarter past six and waited an hour before the store opened – the bottle looks amazing." Other devotees also reported making journeys from beyond Greater Manchester to secure the sought-after beverage. Oasis aficionado, Jack Blake, remarked: "I drove from London for the Champagne after I saw the post. I thought, I must try and get a bottle!" The introduction of the celebratory tipple coincides with Aldi's Bury New Road store in Prestwich (Image: Malcolm Hart ) Article continues below On the occasion of the launch, Julie Ashfield, Chief Commercial Officer at Aldi UK, commented: "We're thrilled to launch Supernova Champagne, a special, limited-edition rebrand of our award-winning Veuve Monsigny. We're offering shoppers a unique and memorable way to raise a glass to this iconic moment in music history." The introduction of the celebratory tipple coincides with Aldi's Bury New Road store in Prestwich undergoing a temporary name change to 'Aldeh', in a nod to the Mancunian way of pronouncing its name, ahead of Oasis' gig at Heaton Park. Aldi's exclusive Supernova Champagne is up for grabs at the Aldi Bury New Road, Manchester branch starting today, priced at £14.95, while supplies last.
