Oasis Cardiff gigs weather forecast reveals mixed picture depending which day you're going You'll either need your Oasis-style parka or bucket hat depending on what day you've got a ticket for An Oasis fan reads the official tour programme ahead of their reunion gig at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff (Image: Rowan Griffiths / Daily Mirror ) The weekend we've all been waiting for is nearly upon us.

Excitement is at fever pitch in the capital as soundchecks can be heard bellowing out of the Principality Stadium with the final preparations being put in place by the Mancunian brothers. And fans are putting their own final preparations in place from visiting the pop-up shop at St David's Shopping Centre to purchase the all-important T-shirts and bucket hats to deciding which pubs they are going to frequent for some pre-match lemonades, with pubs and bars expected to be busy from very early in the day before gates open at 5pm. Concert organisers have confirmed that the roof will be closed at the home of Welsh rugby on July 4 and 5 which promises to add to the cauldron of noise that fans are going to create. But what weather can fans expect on the day? The Met Office's forecast for Thursday into Sunday predicts unspoilt weather if you've got tickets for the first night on Friday. But it appears to be more of an unsettled day on Saturday. Its website reads: "Dry with plenty of sunshine on Friday. "Turning breezier and cloudier over the weekend with periods of persistent rain through Saturday and scattered showers on Sunday. Feeling cooler too." Sunshine is expected all day on Friday. This is how it will look at 4pm Taking a closer look Cardiff is set to have temperatures of 19°C at 10am on Friday and by 1pm it will rise to 20°C. By 4pm the temperature will remain at 20°C and drop to 18°C at 7pm by the time second warm-up act Richard Ashcroft takes to the stage. It will be fine for when fans leave the stadium too with temperatures of 16°C expected. No rainfall is expected all day. Rainfall is expected all day on Saturday.

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 with prices from £121, although fans should always bear in mind that many official sites, such as Ticketmaster and Live Nation, discourage the purchase of resale tickets.

Lidl by Lidl: Supermarket launches Oasis jacket ahead of tour
Lidl has announced the launch of its exclusive 'Lidl by Lidl' Oasis-style jacket ahead of the band's long-awaited comeback tour. The limited edition coat – named in homage to the 2002 single Little By Little – was unveiled on a 30ft wall outside Manchester City's Etihad Stadium on Wednesday morning. The design is a tongue-in-cheek reference to Liam Gallagher's ICONS campaign last year, which saw the iconic frontman wear a Berghaus jacket, which fans joked were similar to Lidl's brand colours. Featuring drink-cooling pockets, a bottle opener for a zipper, a 'Lidl By Lidl' badge, and even a tambourine 'for spontaneous jam sessions' – the coat will be available to buy for £30 from next Wednesday, July 9. Those who miss out, will be able to get a branded bucket hat or a pair of Lidl aviators, available on their website for free. Joanna Gomer, marketing director at Lidl GB says of the campaign: 'In celebration of one of the biggest reunion tours for music & culture, we wanted to give consumers 'everything they ever dreamed of' and create something iconic.' 'With Oasis's 'Definitely Maybe' album and Lidl GB both marking 30 years, this jacket taps into the love the nation has not only for Lidl fashion, but also our brand and the band. getlux via Supplied Lidl's Oasis-themed jacket goes on sale next Wednesday. 'Whether heading to a gig, or for those that want to look 'supersonic' at the supermarket, we have created something fun, functional, and full of character, just like the music that inspired it. The 'Lidl by Lidl' jacket is more than just merch – it's a tribute to our fans, the moments, and the memories that have defined the last three decades.' Gallagher brothers, Noel and Liam, announced they were reuniting for a world tour last August, and it officially kicks off in Cardiff this Friday. Pop-up shops selling official Oasis merchandise are opening across the UK and Ireland to mark the occasion, with the first one already opened in their hometown of Manchester. An official Oasis pop-up shop is set to open in Edinburgh ahead of the bands' Murrayfield concerts, launching on Monday, August 4, before the band play three sold-out nights in the capital.

How to get Pulp tickets for 2025 UK tour
Ready for another dose of Britpop nostalgia? Pulp have just announced a summer arena tour of the UK, including two dates at London's O2 Arena. The Sheffield group, fronted by Jarvis Cocker, will be hitting the road in June, shortly before fellow 90s giants Oasis kick off their own reunion tour. Pulp have not performed in Britain since their much-hyped comeback in 2023, so there is likely to be a frantic, Oasis-style scramble for tickets. Here's everything you need to know about this summer's tour. Buy Pulp tickets Pulp's new tour, titled 'You Deserve More', will kick off Glasgow's OVO Arena on 7 June. The Britpop icons, best known for hits Common People and Disco 2000, will then head to London for two nights at the O2 Arena. They will also entertain fans at Birmingham's Utilita Arena and Manchester's Co-op Live. Tickets for the 2025 dates will go on sale via Ticketmaster at 9:30am on Friday, 21 February, following a presale on Tuesday, 18 February. They will be priced between £53.60 and £99. See their full list of UK arena shows below: 7 June – Glasgow, OVO Hydro 13 June – London, The O2 14 June – London, The O2 19 June – Birmingham, Utilita Arena 21 June – Manchester, Co-op Live It is currently unclear whether Pulp's tour will coincide with a new album. The group debuted various new songs during their 2023 tour, and they were reported to have recorded fresh material in london last summer. Their most recent LP, We Love Life, was released in 2001. In a new statement, frontman Cocker said: "You deserve more – and we have more. In fact, we have more – but that's a whole other story… you'll have to wait a little more time to hear that one. In the meantime: see you this summer!" Pulp's UK tour will end a week before Glastonbury Festival, which has sparked speculation that the band could headline the event. The band last played at Worthy Farm as part of a secret set in 2011, and headlined in both 1995 and 1998. However, their only confirmed UK festival date so far is a homecoming show at Sheffield's Tramlines Festival on 25 July. They will also play at Spanish festival Bilbao BBK Live, which will take place between 10 and 12 July. Pulp's You Deserve More tour will visit the UK in June 2025
