Liam Gallagher fans, mark your calendars, because the singer has announced he’s returning to Knebworth next year to put on a monumental show – 25 years after Oasis’ historical gigs there in 1996.
In June 2022, Knebworth Park is set to host the biggest concert Gallagher will have performed so far during his solo career. The very same venue hosted Oasis back in 1996 where they played to 250,000 people over two nights.
Gallagher himself is also pumped for the upcoming gig and announced the news to his 3.5m Twitter followers by tweeting:
“I’m absolutely buzzing to announce that on 4th June 2022 I’ll be playing Knebworth. It’s gonna be biblical,” and signed off in his signature style, “C’mon You Know. LG x”

The 49-year-old will also be hoping to score a fourth consecutive number one after “As You Were,” “Why Me? Why Not,” and his 2020 live album all hit number one.
With his third solo album, “C’MON YOU KNOW” expected to be released in May 2022, fans will be able to hear Gallagher’s new tracks live, as well as songs from his first two chart-topping albums.
Since the news was announced, fans of the Oasis frontman have taken to Twitter to share their excitement about Gallagher’s big return to Knebworth.
Early access to tickets are available by pre-ordering Gallagher’s new album on his web store and it seems the influx of fans have caused the website to crash.
