Police Take Action After Fans Attempt to Enter Oasis Concert in Manchester Without Tickets

Liputan6.com, Jakarta The Oasis show in their hometown of Manchester, England, left an incident that involved intervention. Several fans were arrested for attempting to jump the fence to gain access to the concert area at Heaton Park.

As is known, Oasis completed two of five shows in Manchester on July 11 and 12 last weekend, as part of the "Oasis Live '25 Tour" reunion tour, marking their first concert there in 16 years.

The first day's show, which was sold out, drew an audience of 80,000 people. However, fans who didn't have tickets chose to enjoy the show around Heaton Park, where some of them attempted to climb over the park's parapet to gain entry.

According to the Manchester Evening News, around 50 fans attempted to storm one of the entrances to the concert area, with some successfully entering. In contrast, others were arrested and escorted away.

One man was seen handcuffed and taken off the premises by a police officer, while another officer was seen carrying a ladder after the fans tried to climb over the outer fence.

Greater Manchester Police confirmed that six people had been arrested for various offenses, including fraud, intent to sell cannabis, and drunk and disorderly conduct.

Not only that, but drones were also seized after a no-fly zone of one and a half miles around the concert venue was established.

Previously, promoters and local authorities had warned fans not to attempt to enter Heaton Park during the show, informing them that a double fence would be in place around the concert area, guarded by security patrols.

The warning came after TikTok videos circulated, offering guidance to those without tickets on how to gain entry to the concert.

Meanwhile, three other shows in Manchester will be held on July 16, 19, and 20, then Oasis will visit London, Edinburgh, and Dublin.

After touring the UK, the Gallagher brothers will visit other cities, namely Toronto, Chicago, East Rutherford, Pasadena, Mexico City, Rock, Tokyo, Melbourne, Sydney, Buenos Aires, Santiago, and São Paulo.
