Oasis Return to Heaton Park for Night 3

Opening: As the stage lights dimmed and “This is it… This is Happening… Manchester” flashed on the giant screens behind them, Liam and Noel Gallagher took to the stage together. First song: “Hello”. This set the tone for the evening — large, nostalgic, but also energetic. Alex Reviews Gigs

Opening: As the stage lights dimmed and “This is it… This is Happening… Manchester” flashed on the giant screens behind them, Liam and Noel Gallagher took to the stage together. First song: “Hello”. This set the tone for the evening — large, nostalgic, but also energetic.

The set split broadly into two halves:

The first half leaned towards the heavier, rock-driven Oasis catalogue — the anthemic, the raucous, the swagger. Songs like Acquiesce and Cigarettes & Alcohol drew loud, energetic responses.

The second half shifted into more emotional territory, featuring ballads and slower tunes, culminating with Champagne Supernova (and, for many, an emotional high). 

Highlights & Fan Reaction

“Slide Away” and “The Masterplan” were standout moments for diehard fans, rare gems that elevated the set beyond a pure greatest-hits run.

“Half the World Away” drew emotional sing-alongs, especially poignant given its place in Manchester’s cultural identity.

The encore closed with “Don’t Look Back in Anger”, cementing the communal spirit of the night.
