Oasis fans offered tips to avoid travel chaos after gigs at Murrayfield Stadium

Liam Gallagher and Noel Gallagher will be at Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh on the Oasis Live '25 Tour, with fans of acts like Taylor Swift offering advice to concertgoers Fans of Oasis have been offered advice from supporters of acts like Taylor Swift and Robbie Williams ahead of the band's reunion tour. It comes ahead of Liam Gallagher and Noel Gallagher playing gigs at Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh. There's concern about getting home from the venue, which has a capacity of 67,000, in August. It comes following the experiences of Taylor's fans, who grappled with transport difficulties last June when the international singer dazzled crowds over three nights at the venue during her Era's Tour. ‌ Now, as the countdown to the Oasis gigs on August 8, 9 and 12 continues, fans of the band have been issued advice, as reported by the Daily Record. It includes them having been dissuaded from using Haymarket station – advice shared on a Reddit thread entitled: "People of Glasgow that are going to Oasis in Edinburgh, how are we getting home?'' ‌ The user sparked discussion about how people that live outside of Edinburgh are planning to get home. The post read: "As per title, are people chancing being able to get a train home? A coach? A million pound taxi? I'm really not sure of the best plan of action..." One Swiftie from Glasgow suggested: "Tip from when I was at Taylor Swift last year. Everyone will be trying to get a train from Haymarket, and it'll be f***ing mobbed." Advising instead: "Head to Waverly (either via tram or just walk) and get on the train there, it'll be significantly quieter, and you'll likely get a table seat as well, rather than being stuck standing." There's also been advice from someone who attended Robbie Williams' gig in Edinburgh, where he kicked off his BRIT POP world tour at the end of last month. Offering their advice, they said: "We were at Robbie Williams on Saturday and Citylink buses were pretty decent. "Drop you right outside the stadium and pick you up just a little bit further away be prepared for a bit of [a] wait though because it's busy. So the concert finished at 10:30 and we were on the bus by about 11:30." Get Oasis updates straight to your WhatsApp! As the hotly anticipated Oasis reunion tour grows closer, the Mirror has launched its very own Oasis WhatsApp community where you'll get all the latest news on the Gallagher brothers and all the information you'll need in the run up to the gigs. We'll send you the latest breaking updates and exclusives all directly to your phone. Users must download or already have WhatsApp on their phones to join in.

I don't think it will be that bad trying to get home via public transport." There was however a word of caution about high demand to book ahead from someone else. They wrote: "Make sure to book the [CityLink] 900 and AIR buses ahead of time, they fill up quickly." Another person suggested similarly, writing in part of their response: "Citylink run all night. Happy Bus run private coach transfers from Buchanan to the event and back." ‌ A different user offered a more unconventional tip for catching a quieter bus: "Head to a club till you're completely knackered then head for a bus (they run 24/7 as previously mentioned). By that time most folk will have f***ed off already." Oasis fans are buzzing with anticipation as the band is set to rock Murrayfield Stadium with three gigs this summer on August 8, 9 and 12. The much-awaited reunion tour marks the first time the Gallagher brothers will share the stage in 16 years, with the opening show set to take place in Cardiff on July 4.

All the rumoured secret sets at Glastonbury 2025 from Pulp to Lewis Capaldi

It's almost time for the gates of Worthy Farm to open and there are still plenty of secrets sets in the lineup for Glastonbury 2025 yet to be uncovered. Organisers slowly revealed the artists for each stage ahead of the festival — which runs from Wednesday, June 25 to Sunday, June 29 — but Glasto-goers know there's plenty hidden in the fields. Attention this year is largely focused on the mysterious Patchwork, who are taking to the Pyramid Stage on Saturday, but there were a whopping 56 TBAs (to be announced) when the full lineup dropped. Emily Eavis — head organiser and daughter of Sir Michael Eavis — teased that Patchwork has been 'in the works for a while', so it's bound to be a big'un. Glastonbury has an epic legacy of artists like David Bowie, Sir Elton John, Beyonce, Adele, and Oasis so the possibilities are endless. While Olivia Rodrigo, The 1975 and Neil Young headline and the likes of Scissor Sisters and Busta Rhymes are set to perform elsewhere, these are the most heavily speculated names for 2025's secret sets. Pulp rumours simply won't go away for Glastonbury 2025 as fans are utterly convinced they will be performing somewhere across the weekend. Despite frontman Jarvis Cocker saying the group would not be taking to the stage, they are favourites to fill the Patchwork void. Seemingly confirming the news, SecretGlasto shared a video of a patchwork quilt and someone using a sewing machine before cutting to clips of Jarvis and Pulp. The Britpop icons headlined the festival in 1995 after The Stone Roses pulled out, going down in history as one of the best performances. Every year, rumours circulate that Pulp will return but since 1998 we've been left disappointed – except for some solo sets from the frontman. Made up of Jarvis, Candida Doyle, Nick Banks and Mark Webber, the Common People hitmakers revealed a summer arena tour in June. Original bassist Steve Mackey sadly died in 2023, age 56, after a three-month stay in hospital for an undisclosed illness. Helpfully, Pulp's string of dates wrapped on June 21, with Pulp also signing a new record deal and dropping new music. 'Why do we play this game every year with Pulp? Just announce them already!!' wrote icy_device6873 on Reddit. 'Please come through Pulp,' said Minimum-Following794 as MrsCozzyOneStop added: 'Are they ever going to get Pulp?' Come on, Glastonbury, give the people what they want! The trio are finally back. Haim have released new their brand new album I Quit, warming up with singles like Relationships and Everybody's Trying to Figure Me Out. This might just be wishful thinking on our part, but Haim have been hotly speculated for a trip to Worthy Farm. The sisters – Danielle, Este, and Alana – have performed three times at Glastonbury in the past decade (2014, 2017, and 2022). As well as great timing as the trio post endless videos of themselves in London, they have expressed how much they love The Park stage — which has a TBA slot on Saturday at 7.30pm. When asked by Jo Whiley on BBC Radio 2 whether they were free on the Glastonbury weekend, the Falling hitmakers said: 'Well we are playing Margate a couple of days before, so we will be in the area..' 'We love the Park Stage. We played there the first time we came to Glastonbury, it felt like a movie. We were like, how did we get here?' they said. 'You'll never forget the first time you step onto the farm. It's the most insane feeling we will ever have.' Haim were also set to play in 2020, scheduled to take the stage the same week their critically acclaimed third album Women in Music Pt. III was released. While they finally took to the stage two years later in what NME dubbed a 'victory lap', could The Wire hitmakers be looking to re-do their album rollout plan? Oh, did we mention there's a track called the farm on the new album? If they're not there, we quit. Who could forget Lewis Capaldi's heartbreaking 2023 Pyramid Stage set as he broke down in tears on stage. The Someone You Loved hitmaker has been absent from the spotlight since he struggled to finish his performance at Worthy Farm due to vocal issues and a Tourette's flare-up. While he asked the thousands-strong crowd to help him sing his hit song Bruises — which they happily obliged — before wrapping up his set. He's been slowly but surely returning to the public eye, so what better way to celebrate his return to good health than with a triumphant return to the Pyramid Stage. Lewis, 26, is widely thought to be the secret set, scheduled to follow Alanis Morrisette on Saturday, which begins at 6:15pm and ends at 7:15pm. After the Ironic hitmaker performs, there'll then be an hour to fill before Biffy Clyro at quarter past eight; perfect for a Lewis resurgence. Fans have become convinced that Robbie Williams is set to thrill Worthy Farm attendees with an unexpected set. It all kicked off when the official Robbie Williams Facebook page changed its profile picture to the Angels hitmaker at Glastonbury in the 90s. His iconic bleached hair, the red tracksuit, and that missing tooth? The photo is instantly recognisable and Robbie is using it for his latest album, Britpop. There's a cheeky 16.55pm half-hour slot on Friday on the Pyramid Stage which would be perfect for a legendary setlist from this Better Man. He's got a gap in his tour from June 25 until June 28 (Wednesday to Saturday), meaning he could have time to do an earlier set and jet off to his next tour show. The Rock DJ legend last appeared at the festival in 1998 but said on podcast Robbie Williams Rewind, that he would 'slaughter' another performance. He said: 'It's one of those times and places, and a reimagination of what Robbie Williams is. When you do Glastonbury, perception changes more than any other festival. 'Diana Ross could play any festival and not get any traction, but she plays Glastonbury and everybody is talking about it – like Barry Gibb. A lot of people there have an oblique perception of what I am but if they saw me do it, I would take their heads off.' Hot off a brilliant performance at Brighton Pride last year, iconic artist Mika appears to have a Glasto-shaped hole in his tour announcement. At the end of March, the Grace Kelly legend shared that he would be visiting a variety of festivals around Europe this summer. He will perform at Latitude in Suffolk later in July, as well as numerous festivals in France and Italy on his 15 Days of Summer Tour. On June 26, Mika is at Festival De Nimes in France but he has nothing else lined up until July 3 where he is (somewhat helpfully) in Leeds at Millennium Square. Days later, he flies back to Europe, seemingly making a strange detour to the UK for one gig… just in time for Glastonbury. Mika is an absolutely classic pick for a mid-afternoon Other Stage or Pyramid performer, with enough big hits to fill a set and keep the energy up ahead of the headliners. The Lollipop hitmaker last played Worthy Farm in 2007, taking to The Other Stage on Sunday at 6pm, clashing with Paolo Nutini on Pyramid. Fans are convinced that hit 00s band The Wombats will also be playing a set after their latest album, Oh The Ocean, reached number four in the UK charts. Possibly, with no Other Stage TBAs, they could fill the mysterious Woodsies opening slot on Friday. The Wombats formed in Liverpool in 2003, consisting of Matthew Murphy (lead vocals, guitar, keyboards), Tord Øverland Knudsen (bass, backing vocals, keyboards), and Dan Haggis (drums, backing vocals, keyboards). Perhaps best known for their song Let's Dance to Joy Division, the band's first full-length studio album, A Guide to Love, Loss & Desperation, came out in conjunction with the single in 2007. Throughout the 2000s and 2010s, The Wombats became a staple of the British indie scene, releasing studio albums This Modern Glitch (2011), Glitterbug (2015), and Beautiful People Will Ruin Your Life (2018). Their first number-one album – Fix Yourself, Not the World – came in 2022, topping the UK Albums Chart within a week of release. User SpecificDentist3248 posted on Reddit: 'Thought the Wombats would be a shoo-in with their new album and them touring (playing Liverpool June 19th), wonder if a band of this size could get announced later on?' Character_Honey_653 thinks the odds look good for the band to appear, writing: 'They announced a large chunk of the Woodsies line up later on in April last year, including some good additions like the Vaccines. So I'm also praying for a Wombats announcement! You'd think it'd be likely.' rmackers-197 chimed in: 'They would definitely pull a good crowd that's for sure everyone loves the nostalgia vibes.' Currently, the band has a nice gap in their tour between June 22 and July 10, so maybe Murph and the boys will be at Worthy Farm. Beloved rockers Paramore are keeping fairly quiet, after opening for Taylor Swift on the entire UK and European leg of the Eras Tour. The long-time friends of the Cruel Summer hitmaker last released music in 2023 with hit album This Is Why, touring around the world that year. Paramore – consisting of Hayley Williams, Taylor York, Zac Farro, plus touring members – have never played Worthy Farm despite being one of the biggest bands of the past two decades. Lead singer Hayley has been teasing the possibility of finally embarking on her solo tour after Covid cancelled it, so could she take to a Glastonbury stage? If the band were to perform, they'd likely be much higher up the billing, but Hayley's solo music isn't so well known and could suit Woodsies or Park Stage. While this seems like a long shot, speculation continues to bubble after one Redditor said he had heard the Kerrang DJ accidentally confirm them ahead of the lineup announcement. Other fans – and Metro – were unable to verify this and it was dismissed but maybe Reddit user Rexydan24 simply had a vision. Pop-rock icons McFly could make an appearance at Worthy Farm – possibly bringing frenemies Busted with them. The band – consisting of Danny Jones, Tom Fletcher, Harry Judd, and Dougie Poynter – last played Glastonbury in 2022. The Avalon Stage proved far too small as crowds flocked to see big hits like Five Colours In Her Hair, Star Girl, or Obviously. This year, they are touring, with a break from June 22 to July 9, putting them in the perfect position for a Glastonbury slot. McFly are also running a series of gigs 'vs' Busted – James Bourne, Matt Willis and Charlie Simpson – their former chart rivals, known for Year 3000, Crashed the Wedding and 3am. This kicks off in September with 14 dates; what better way to introduce the concept than with an afternoon slot on the Pyramid Stage? We're thinking a nice Friday or Saturday battle or the bands moment, as Glastonbury performers are known to bring guests on. Fans hope they'll get to see as many of their favourite acts as possible after coughing up almost £400 to attend the iconic weekend. As mentioned, The 1975 are headlining Friday, Neil Young is the Saturday headliner, and Olivia Rodrigo takes Sunday's closing slot. Sir Rod Stewart will take Sunday's tea-time Legend slot, which last year was filled by Shania Twain. Brit award-winning artist of the year Charli XCX is on the lineup for Saturday, confirmed to be headlining the Other Stage by Nick Grimshaw and Annie Mac's Sidetracked podcast after taking over Levels last year. The Other Stage's Friday headliner is Loyle Carner while Sunday is The Prodigy, returning as headliner for the first time since Keith Flint's death. More Trending Legendary DJ Annie also self-confirmed while on the podcast, despite not being on the initial lineup announcement. The rest lineup is bursting with popular artists like Raye (on the Pyramid Stage), Biffy Clyro, Gracie Abrams, Doechii, Beabadoobee, and a debut Glasto performance from Noah Kahan. Lola Young is performing but that's no surprise after her accidental self-confirm at the Brit Awards, telling fans she was at Coachella and Glastonbury while on the red carpet. Only time will tell if Robbie Williams, Pulp, or anyone else rumoured takes to the stage. Got a story?

Next offering Oasis inspired tees from £24 ahead of iconic band's reunion tour

The high street retailer is helping get devoted Oasis fans reunion tour ready ahead of next month. Oasis are officially back in the spotlight, delighting long term fans. With a highly anticipated reunion tour slated for next month, many will be counting down the days. Brothers, and co-founders of the beloved band, Liam and Noel Gallagher dropped the bombshell last summer that they would once again be joining the stage together for the Oasis Live '25 Tour that kicks off on July 4. With just over two weeks to go until the big day, those who were lucky enough to get tickets will need to start planning their outfit, and Next is offering a wide range of tees that play right into the returning '90s fashion trend. There's a wide range of styles that have been inspired by the iconic Britpop band, with this White/Black 90s Graphic Official License Oasis Band Relaxed Fit T-Shirt, £28, being one for women who are attending one of the gigs. Available in sizes XS to XL, this basic tee has been crafted from a pure cotton material and features a simple crew neckline. The simple design, that features the Oasis logo branded across the front, is ideal for pairing with vintage denims and even a bucket hat. Those who are maybe looking for something a touch more out there, the Oasis License Colour Block Graphic T-Shirt offers a striking yellow and brown colourway that will be sure to attract attention at summer festivals. Costing £28, has a little bit more stock available, as it has been designed in both regular and petite lengthways, with sizes ranging from a UK six to 26. Also made from a breathable pure cotton material, this particular tee inspired by the band boasts raglan sleeves, a simple crew neckline and a graphic print of the band's beloved 'Definitely, Maybe' album. Of course, it's not just merch for women, as Next is also stocking this Oasis Graphic Band 100 per cent Cotton T-Shirt, also featuring a graphic print of the band's debut album, for a budget-friendly £24. Unlike the previous option for women, this tee is available in a white colourway, with the graphic print being outlined in a vibrant green colourway. Available in sizes S to 3XL, it's another choice for fans looking to get tour ready. With three tour dates taking place at Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium, something with longer sleeves might be better suited, which is why we think this £26 version might be a fast seller among Scots fans. Available in sizes XS to 2XL, this tee offers the same style as the previous ones before it, just with longer sleeves. Offering a small Oasis logo on the front, the back is adorned with a graphic print of the band's third studio album 'Be Here Now.' The good thing about many of these vintage-inspired tees? They can be paired with virtually anything. Not just trusty denims like we mentioned earlier, but also cargo pants and maybe a classic parka to really recreate that 90s vibe associated with the band. Fashion deal of the week Calling all fashion fans, as we have found the dress to compliment a golden, sun-kissed tan this summer. It's Roman's White Lace Bodice Shirred Midi Dress, and it looks perfect for any tropical getaways or beach holidays. Costing £38, it boasts a strap-style design, with a chic crochet overlay bodice and a flowing midi-length skirt. It's finished with a simple round neckline that can be easily layered with statement necklaces for those days it is being worn to fancier events, or for going out to dinner. While the white colourway is ideal for highlighting a summer tan, it is worth noting that shoppers can also purchase the midi frock in both pink and black, with sizes all of them being available in sizes 10 to 20. The strappy maxi dress has been the subject of glowing praise, as it has garnered a stellar five star rating from shoppers who say it "looks lovely with a suntan" and is "stunning" to wear. One delighted shopper said: "It's very flattering and looks lovely with a suntan." Get holiday ready by purchasing Roman's White Lace Bodice Shirred Midi Dress for £38 now. While many of us who grew up singing 'Champagne Supernova' and 'Wonderwall' may be all grown up, there may be a few little ones among us who are also becoming fans, with Next offering a selection of tops for them as well. From bucket hats and hoodies to branded graphic printed tees, the high street firm has something for new fans aged from eight months up until 16-years old, with prices ranging from £11 to £36. The entire collection of Oasis-branded merch is available to buy from Next ahead of next month's reunion tour now.
