Oasis Wembley Stadium: Man named after falling to death
Witnesses described the 'horrendous' scenes after the man reportedly fell from a balcony during the band's long-anticipated reunion tour.
His family have since named Lee - a 'loving family man' - as the victim.
In a GoFundMe set up by his brother Aaron, it reads: 'Our family has been turned upside down and are struggling to deal with this devastation and unexpected loss.'
It said: 'Lee was a loving family man who was a role model to his son Harry and was loved so much by all of his family.
'Lee would have done anything for any of us and he was taken from us far too soon and we will miss him very much.
'Lee loved all outdoor activities, one of his favourite hobbies was fishing.
'He also loved music and his guitar. He also really enjoyed going to watch and support the boys and his nephew at their football games.'
According to the fundraiser, he has left behind his son, dad, partner, brothers, sisters, nephews and niece.
It is hoped the GoFundMe can help his partner financially and emotionally as they are 'going through any family's worst nightmare.'
The fall happened during the latest in a run of stadium shows for the band's sell-out Live '25 reunion tour – their first since splitting in 2009.
