Britpop fans are gearing up for the three highly anticipated Oasis shows at Murrayfield as the first is set to begin later on Friday.

The Mancunian rockers will return to Scotland for the first time in 16 years for three sold-out shows – held on Friday, Saturday and Tuesday.

While their exact set-list has not been revealed as yet, on previous dates the band has performed classics such as Wonderwall, which propelled the rockers into stardom, as well as Morning Glory, Talk Tonight, D’you Know What I Mean? and Don’t Look Back in Anger.

ScotRail has announced a number of extra services operating to and from Edinburgh to cater for the vast number of fans travelling to the concert.

The railway operator also says it is increasing capacity on its services, ensuring no-one is stuck for transportation before and after the show.

In a short message posted on X ahead of the concert, the band, led by Gallagher brothers Liam and Noel, said: “Edinburgh. Are you ready?”

The post gained more than 10,000 likes and legions of fans responded in turn, stating they cannot wait to see them perform at the stadium.

The band has recently performed in a number of cities including Cardiff and London.

The group will next head to Ireland, before moving on to Canada, the US, South Korea, Japan, Australia, and South America.
