Overview
- Despite steel fences erected by Manchester City Council to protect parkland and newly planted woodland, hundreds of ticketless fans continue to gather at Gallagher Hill with picnics, deck chairs and flares to hear the concerts.
- Greater Manchester Police have arrested six people for trying to enter with fake accreditation and maintain patrols along the perimeter, confirming no unauthorized access to the concert area.
- Cleaning crews cleared large bags of rubbish from Gallagher Hill after the third show, highlighting ongoing efforts to balance fan enthusiasm with environmental protection.
- Weekday performances are capped at 50,000 attendees, down from nearly 80,000 on weekends, as organizers adjust capacity limits and logistics during the five-night residency.
- Halfway through their homecoming run, Oasis cemented fan devotion when Noel Gallagher told the crowd, “Nobody’s got fans like this,” ahead of the final two shows on July 19 and 20.
