Oasis' rarely seen 1994 Glastonbury performance added to BBC Festival repeats line-up

A rarely seen performance from Oasis will be made readily available for music fanatics on BBC iPlayer, after the 2020 Glastonbury Festival was cancelled.

The band's 1994 Glastonbury set is to be added to iPlayer's channel dedicated to the Festival - joining the likes of Ed Sheeran and The Stripes.

Steve Lamacq dropped the good news on his BBC Radio 6 programme today.

The set's highlights will also form part of BBC Two's The Glastonbury Experience Live, hosted by Jo Whiley and Mark Radcliffe, on Friday 26th June, from 8:30pm to 10pm.

Between 10am on Thursday 25th June and 1am on Monday 29th June, fans will be treated to some of the Festival's biggest and best performances from its 49 shows.

This means fans will get to see the Gallagher brothers perform on stage together again - after their famous 2009 bust-up that split the band.

Liam and Noel have an ongoing feud - and aren't showing signs of warming to each other again.

2020 was set to mark the 50th anniversary - but amid coronavirus, had to be cancelled.
