Couple gets engaged in Cardiff ahead of Oasis after travelling 20 hours for gig
The Colombian couple made a 20-hour journey to Cardiff just to catch Oasis launch their Live 25 reunion tour at the Principality Stadium tonight, Friday July 4.
Sergio chose Thursday, July 3, at Cardiff Castle as the perfect moment to propose to Heidi, ensuring their special moment didn't overshadow the main event they travelled for. As a die-hard Oasis fan, Sergio was buzzing with anticipation for the show, stating: "It's the most important gig in the world, I've been waiting for this moment for 25 years"
He shared: "I've seen Liam in Buenos Aires and Argentina, Noel in Colombia, but I've never seen them together."
The couple expressed their affection for the city and its welcoming inhabitants. Sergio said: "Cardiff is a lovely place the people are so kind and charming, it's like a huge village. Friendly people, I feel so comfortable with the people here.
"We are looking forward to seeing the culture and the people, and not drink too much because we want to enjoy the show and remember everything, every lyric, every note.", reports Wales Online.
To mark the occasion, Sergio proposed to Heidi during their visit to Cardiff Castle. He said: "It is the best trip we have done in our life. I didn't want to propose at the concert because today is my day, yesterday was her day and I wanted to make it about her and not my favourite band."
Despite her limited English, Heidi adores the music and is thrilled to see her new fiancé's dream of watching his favourite band come true.
Tickets for the Oasis reunion sold out across all venues due to huge demand when they went online earlier in the year. However, there are still several options available for fans trying to snag a last-minute spot. Limited last-minute tickets can be bought from the official Ticketmaster resale site, where fans who can no longer go sell their seats, although these tend to go into and out of stock quickly. Elsewhere, resale sites like Viagogo, Vivid Seats, StubHub and Twickets are selling tickets for various dates, although fans should always bear in mind that many official sites, such as Ticketmaster and Live Nation, discourage the purchase of resale tickets.
Meanwhile Seat Unique has some VIP tickets available offering a host of additional perks alongside access to the gig.

Liam Gallagher pays tribute to dog he adopted from Irishman's rescue shelter
A chocolate Labrador who was abandoned in a Thai jungle has had a second chance at life after Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher adopted her. Buttons was abandoned at just five months old after her owners decided she was no longer 'cute enough.' The sweet pup found a home at charity and sanctuary, Happy Doggo, where she 'slowly checked herself in.' A chocolate Labrador who was abandoned in a Thai jungle has had a second chance at life after Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher adopted her. Pic: Happy Doggo was founded by Irish man Niall Harbison in 2021 with the aim of reducing the suffering of dogs worldwide. Based in Thailand, and spurred on by all the homeless and abandoned dogs, Niall has a particular focus on Thailand and South East Asia. Recalling rescuing Buttons, Niall took to social media saying: 'I remember telling her I'd find her a home and she was too soft for the streets. I hadn't quite imagined it would be that sort of home! It's a funny old world but little buttons has landed on her little paws.' Buttons was adopted by the Oasis star in 2023, with Liam previously expressing his love for his canine friend. Liam Gallagher added that his love for the dog is 'terrible' and makes him not want to tour anymore because he wants to 'stay at home with her.' Pic: Liam Gallagher/ Instagram Speaking on the Jonathan Ross Show, the singer explained how he 'fell in love with Buttons' having followed Niall on social media. 'We follow this geezer, this Irish lad who rescues them, and they've been all battered and stuff and beaten up,' Liam shared, 'We fell in love with Buttons, and then he flew her over from Thailand and then got her on a ferry from Amsterdam to me.' Liam added that his love for the dog is 'terrible' and makes him not want to tour anymore because he wants to 'stay at home with her.' Asked if he was planning on getting a canine friend for Buttons, Liam answered: 'Nah, I'm gonna keep as it is because she's perfect man, I don't want to be spoiling the party.' Liam and brother Noel reunited on Friday night for the first time in more than ten years as the brothers are set to perform almost 50 nights of the greatest Oasis hits this summer. One clip from the shows, which took place in Cardiff on Friday and Saturday, saw a graphic of Buttons appear on the screen behind her beloved dad Liam singing. Niall shared a glimpse of the footage online with people taking to the comments full of praise. One said: 'You are an amazing geezer Niall! You are all the ones that saved her!!' Another added: 'The happy ending every dog deserves!' A third commented: 'So cute to see how much he loves her.'
