Liam Gallagher<\/a> acknowledged the thousands of fans who gathered on the hill now named after him and his brother during Oasis’ Heaton Park<\/a> show last night (Saturday, July 19).<\/p>\n

The legendary Burnage band played the fourth date of their five-night residency in the city.<\/p>\n

By the end of their final gig tonight (Sunday), almost 350,000 people will have converged on north Manchester to watch Oasis<\/a> play.<\/p>\n

However, despite pleas not to, scores of those without tickets have also been travelling to the park to listen to their favourite band.<\/p>\n

A spot now dubbed ‘Gallagher Hill’ has become a mecca for ticketless fans<\/a> wanting to be part of the occasion and soak up the atmosphere.<\/p>\n

Fans had been able to catch glimpses of the stage from the elevated spot until extra fencing was put up at the area earlier this week. Some accused city council chiefs of ‘gatekeeping.’<\/a><\/p>\n

However the town hall said the measures were needed ‘to protect the environment from further damage’ as well as to ‘dissuade people from gathering there.’<\/p>\n

The title of the Oasis classic ‘Don’t Look Back in Anger’ was later spray-painted on the fence.<\/a><\/p>\n

And despite further pleas for those without tickets not to travel to the area, it was busier than ever with thousands gathering on the hill last night.<\/p>\n

People brought picnics, deckchairs and their families to the gathering.<\/p>\n

And Liam last night dedicated one of their songs to those who had come.<\/p>\n

“Right, I’ve been hearing there’s loads of people over there behind some hill or sumut. Yeah I wanna dedicate this tune to them.<\/p>\n

“Right, so if you lot are listening on that f*****g hill, Bring It On Down” he said, before the band kicked in to the song of the same name from Definitely Maybe.<\/p>\n

Some police and security stood guard around the fence, but nobody was seen trying to climb it.<\/p>\n

The spot has become a mecca for fans without tickets<\/p>\n

Liam also referenced the ‘Kiss cam’ controversy at a Coldplay gig in the US, where a company CEO was awkwardly filmed embracing a colleague<\/a> before they both dived out of view.<\/p>\n

“We don’t do that s**t round here,” he said.<\/p>\n

Oasis are playing their final show at Heaton Park tonight before the tour moves down to Wembley Stadium in London.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The band’s frontman acknowledged those on the hill now named after him 13:09, 20 Jul 2025Updated 19:10, 20…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":279039,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8813],"tags":[748,1285,1849,393,4884,22283,14576,2465,696,25181,3044,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-279038","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-manchester","8":"tag-britain","9":"tag-bury","10":"tag-cheetham-hill","11":"tag-england","12":"tag-great-britain","13":"tag-heaton-park","14":"tag-liam-gallagher","15":"tag-manchester","16":"tag-manchester-music","17":"tag-oasis","18":"tag-prestwich","19":"tag-uk","20":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114889300822438995","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/279038","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=279038"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/279038\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/279039"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=279038"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=279038"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=279038"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
