Oasis experience featuring live band and archive footage coming to Manchester ahead of big 2025 reunion

A new multimedia Oasis experience is coming to Manchester next year - ahead of the band's huge 2025 reunion tour. A new multimedia production of Oasis’ catapult to fame, Live Forever – The Rise of Oasis, will be going on tour, paying a visit to The Bridgewater Hall on January 10.

Covering everything from the Boardwalk to King Tut’s Wah Wah Hut, and, of course, featuring plenty of mentions of Knebworth, the production will show archive footage along the way to the sound of a live band.
