Edinburgh venue to host Oasis afterparties 'that'll have you throwing shapes like it's 1996'
As thousands of fans prepare to descend on Edinburgh for Oasis's historic reunion concerts at Murrayfield Stadium, The Liquid Room is getting ready to keep the Britpop party going long into the night.
The Edinburgh venue will host an unofficial Oasis afterparty on both Friday, August 8 and Saturday, August 9, offering fans the chance to extend the celebrations after the main event.
With doors open from 11pm and DJs playing until late, the event promises a nostalgic return to the 90s, packed with anthems and atmosphere.
Organised by online ticket seller Skiddle, the afterparties are still on sale and expected to draw large crowds of concert-goers looking for the perfect post-gig spot.
With thousands travelling into Edinburgh for the two-night stadium spectacle, these events offer a guaranteed place to gather, dance, and relive the magic of Oasis.
The Liquid Room team teased fans with what to expect: 'Wall-to-wall anthems, from Wonderwall to Live Forever, plus all your favourite indie bangers from Blur, Pulp, Arctic Monkeys, The Stone Roses and more. DJs spinning until late, pints flowing like Champagne Supernova, and vibes that'll have you throwing shapes like it's 1996.'
Tickets are priced at £9.05 and the events are open to over-18s only. The venue, located at 9C Victoria Street in Edinburgh, sits right in the heart of the city and is well-known for its energetic club nights and live gigs.
The afterparties coincide with what is being hailed as one of the most significant reunions in British music history.
On August 8 and 9, Oasis will take the stage at Scotland's largest stadium, Murrayfield, for two long-awaited concerts that mark their first live shows at the venue in over a decade.
Liam and Noel Gallagher's decision to reunite has sent shockwaves through the music world, with fans eager to experience the band's signature sound and era-defining hits live once again.
The setlist is expected to be a sweeping showcase of the band's biggest tracks, including Don't Look Back in Anger, Rock 'n' Roll Star, and Champagne Supernova.
With the added possibility of rare cuts and fan favourites, the concerts are shaping up to be landmark moments in the UK's live music calendar.

Oasis fans hit with Covid 'superspreader' warning ahead of Murrayfield gigs
Experts are urging pandemic-style precautions ahead of the Edinburgh leg of Oasis' hotly-anticipated tour They are the live performances that Oasis enthusiasts in Scotland have been anticipating all summer, with Liam Gallagher and Noel Gallagher finally travelling north of the border for three sold-out shows at Murrayfield Stadium. The iconic brothers will be taking to the Edinburgh stage on August 8, 9, and 12, when eager fans will finally hear hits like 'Wonderwall' and 'Don't Look Back in Anger' for the first time since the pair's infamous fallout 16 years ago. However, with just five days until the band's first Scottish performance since 2009, supporters are being cautioned that the latest variant of Covid is circulating amongst music enthusiasts attending the Live 25 reunion tour. Ironically, the Stratus variant is recognised for causing people to develop a hoarse voice – rather like frontman and Britpop wildman Liam Gallagher, who has been troubled by laryngitis and other throat ailments. The virus has been circulating at London's Wembley Stadium, where Oasis have now completed five nights, with specialists recommending pandemic-style precautions before the Edinburgh portion of the tour. Over 200,000 people will pack into Scottish Gas Murrayfield, with the Scottish capital already heaving due to the Fringe, reports the Scottish Daily Express. Akash Sood from Knightswood Pharmacy said: "New strands of Covid can infect thousands within metres of one another, so wear a mask if concerned, be safe and enjoy the return of Oasis." The danger of contracting Covid at the concerts has also been emphasised by a team working on a documentary about the brothers' comeback tour. Fans heading into Wembley were greeted with a notice stating: "You acknowledge the contagious and potentially dangerous nature of Covid-19 and that the government and many public health authorities recommend social distancing." The message continued: "You acknowledge that there remains the possibility that you may come into direct or indirect contact with Covid and you freely and willingly enter this area." The newly identified Stratus strain comprises two variants, XFG and XFG. 3, with XFG.3 responsible for 30 per cent of all Covid cases in England, as reported by the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA). Dr Alex Allen, Consultant Epidemiologist at UKHSA, said it is "normal for viruses to mutate and change over time" and confirmed that the agency continues to monitor all strains of Covid within the UK.

As mentioned, the new strain of Covid's unique symptom is a hoarse and raspy voice. Dr Kaywaan Khan, a Harley Street GP and Founder of Hannah London Clinic, described its symptoms as 'mild to moderate,' and other signs of Stratus are similar to that of other Covid strains. Dr Khan advised: "If you test positive, Stratus is highly contagious, and it is advised to stay home and isolate to avoid spreading to others." The NHS explains that symptoms of Covid can include:

Inside Joanna Lumley's Wednesday season 2 role as Jenna Ortega link revealed
Joanna Lumley is set to star in season two of Netflix's Wednesday, but what do we know about her role in the upcoming season of the horror comedy-drama series? WARNING: This article contains spoilers from Wednesday season 2. The second series of Netflix 's horror comedy-drama Wednesday is set to welcome British icon Joanna Lumley to its cast, sparking intrigue among fans about her role in the show. Lumley, best known for her outrageous portrayal of Patsy Stone in the 90s sitcom Absolutely Fabulous alongside Jennifer Saunders, has since been involved in a variety of major projects. The former model, author and activist has featured in a number of successful films such as Paddington 2 and The Wolf of Wall Street, as well as popular UK series like Fool Me Once and Amandaland. Her next television appearance will be in the Addams Family spin-off, Wednesday, which returns for its second series on Netflix on Wednesday, August 6. Ahead of the show's return, Netflix has hinted at how the unforgettable 79 year old will make her mark in the series. Lumley will join the cast as none other than Wednesday Addams' (played by Jenna Ortega) Grandma Hester Frump. She is described as Morticia Addams' (Catherine Zeta-Jones) "formidable mother and the fabulously wealthy mogul behind Frump Mortuaries", one of the most successful outcast-owned companies in America. With this teaser in mind, it's speculated that Morticia will be clashing with her mother in the upcoming series. Netflix further describes Grandma Hester as being "immaculately coiffed, emotionally cold, and armed with a razor-sharp tongue. "Hester is calculated in everything she does, from running her empire to managing her family's legacy." A first glimpse of Lumley's Wednesday transformation has been unveiled ahead of the second series launch, and she appears as striking as ever sporting a gothic fitted black gown and theatrical upswept hairstyle. She won't be the sole new addition when the sophomore season kicks off, as Lumley will be accompanied by Thandiwe Newton portraying psychiatrist Dr Rachael Fairburn, Steve Buscemi as Principal Dort and Billie Piper taking on the role of music instructor Isadora Capri. What's particularly thrilling is that pop icon Lady Gaga is also expected to feature in Wednesday as an educator named Rosaline Rotwood, though no preview shots of the superstar have emerged as of yet.

Mrs Brown's Boys loses 8,500,000 viewers as fans complain 'it's got even worse'
Mrs Brown's Boys is somehow back for another season, but its viewership has dropped off a cliff amid growing calls to axe the show. The BBC comedy returned on Friday night after a two-year break and a widely-panned Christmas special to a viewership of 1,500,000 fans. This is a whopping 8.5million down from Mrs Brown's Boys' heyday and a far cry from its once lofty title of 'best British sitcom' less than a decade ago. While overnight ratings are criticised for not showing the full picture in the age of streaming, they do highlight just how far the once-popular comedy has fallen. Launching in 2011, the series follows the life of the interfering Agnes Brown (played by writer and creator Brendan O'Carroll) and her family. It's proven one of the most divisive shows of all time, with this series cementing viewers' opinions that the 'axe looms'. SuperTV shared on X that the show 'returned last night with just 1.5 million viewers, the lowest audience it has ever recorded.' The ratings elicited the expected reactions from those who are less than enthusiastic about revisiting Mammy's world. 'Mrs Brown come collect ya tings from BBC Studios then,' joked floellaumbagabe as iJordan said: 'Nature is healing'. '8.5 million people have clearly had a word with themselves,' wrote johnoconnell6, while pheebs_18 asked: 'Time for this show to finally end? 😭' SamFarmer2 added: 'Because people are fed up with it and fed up with the recycled jokes.' SkylarSkye14 declared it the 'worst show of all time' as they watched on Friday night, amid others begging to 'make it stop'. '1.5 million lunatics still chose to put themselves through it tho. Madness,' mikepriestley13 pointed out. Defending Mrs Brown's Boys, ScottTHFC23 wrote: 'Still a very good number without including catch-up and iplayer people.' It's true that viewing habits have changed, with fewer people watching TV as it airs and more opting for the flexibility of on-demand viewing. At the peak of Mrs Brown's Boys' popularity — their third season in 2012 — it brought in over 9million viewers every episode. That year saw 10.72million people tune in for the Christmas Eve episode, with a whopping 11.69million returning the next day for the second part. After four years, this festive figure had dropped slightly to 8.98million but remained steady with the show voted as the best British sitcom of the 21st century. In response to this, O'Carroll said: 'It vindicates the fans' belief in the show. They have kept us on the air – it certainly wasn't the reviewers. 'There is an audience out there that comedy forgot – that Are You Being Served? audience has been left behind. Us winning this award proves that.' Mrs Brown's Boys has never received good reviews, but the show is struggling to compete a decade on, despite once being voted as better than The Office or Gavin and Stacey. Last year's Christmas episode pulled in a measly 2.2million viewers, while Gavin and Stacey's return yielded 10million more viewers. Behind the scenes, there has been controversy too, as rehearsals for the festive episode were halted temporarily after O'Carroll 'implied' a racial slur. More Trending After the BBC investigated the incident, he apologised for his 'clumsy attempt at a joke', which he said had 'backfired and caused offence'. He was accused of starting to utter the N-word before he was stopped by a co-star. Metro once wrote that the BBC should 'hang its head in shame' for broadcasting Mrs Brown's Boys. Could this season finally be the nail in the coffin? Mrs Brown's Boys is available to watch now on BBC iPlayer and airs Fridays at 9.30pm on BBC One. Got a story?
