Oasis reunion tour sparks fan frenzy with strict new entry rules and safety measures

Fans heading to ’ highly anticipated reunion gigs at Manchester’s Heaton Park this summer have been issued new guidance regarding crowd management and ticket access.

The shows, part of a much-hyped tour kicking off in Cardiff on July 4 at the Principality Stadium, include four back-to-back sold-out dates at Heaton Park between July 11 and July 20.

Supporting acts include Richard Ashcroft and Cast. While most other stops on the tour take place in traditional stadiums, Heaton Park’s open-air, standing-only layout has prompted organisers to implement additional safety protocols.

To manage the large crowds expected at the 80,000-capacity site, the Safety Advisory Group has advised that the venue will be divided into two designated zones: a general admission area and a front standing section closer to the stage. Ticketholders have now been invited to register their interest in accessing the front section.

“The Safety Advisory Group for the Heaton Park shows have divided the concert arena into two areas: a general admission area and a front standing area, each with a dedicated ticket and entry gate issued in advance,” reads an official message sent to attendees.

Organisers explained that the move was introduced “to ensure fan safety and improve the fan experience whilst entering the site.”

Ticketholders can apply for front standing access via a link in the email. “If the number of opt-in requests exceeds availability, tickets will be allocated at random from the pool of applicants,” the email added. The deadline to apply is 12:00pm on May 30, with final placement confirmations arriving by June 20.

“Please note that opting in applies to your whole order (you can’t split up tickets). If you’re happy to stay in the general admission area, you don’t need to do anything,” the message clarified.

Meanwhile, Noel Gallagher recently spoke on TalkSPORT about the band’s preparations: “I’m in the studio just noodling around. We’re getting ready for rehearsals to start now in about three weeks, and then, yeah, we’ll see what happens.”

The highly anticipated reunion tour, Oasis Live '25, is set to commence on July 4, 2025, at Cardiff's Principality Stadium and conclude on November 23, 2025, at São Paulo's Estádio Morumbi in Brazil.

The UK and Ireland leg includes multiple dates in Cardiff, Manchester, London, Edinburgh, and Dublin. Notably, Manchester's Heaton Park will host five performances between July 11 and July 20, while London's Wembley Stadium will feature six shows from July 25 to August 3.

Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium and Dublin's Croke Park will each host three concerts in August. Following the European dates, the band will perform in North America, including Toronto, Chicago, New Jersey, Los Angeles, and Mexico City.

The tour will then extend to Asia and Oceania, with stops in South Korea, Japan, and , before concluding in South America with performances in Argentina, Chile, and Brazil.
