Some have said to have spent nearly £300 pounds in merchandise to blend with the 90s nostalgia and keep a memory of the historic music event.
Euan Smith, 22, got his hands on posters, a scarf, some t-shirts and the famous adidas jersey - spending a total of £280.
Asking why he spent this amount of money on Oasis merch, he said: "It is a once-in-a-lifetime thing.
"I spent a long while getting tickets, so I feel like not getting merch would be a bit of a miss out.
"It is something that I will remember and remember watching them."

Superfan Lisa, 30, is seeing the brothers live on Friday and Tuesday.
She said that she spent £250 in merch in the last three weeks, and today she spent £50 on the merch shop outside Murrayfield Stadium.
Ponchos, t-shirts and bucket hats are some of the items the fan bought so far.
She said: "I wanted nice merch and for me it is just I wanted the vintage, the retro and something that is a souvenir because they might not do it again.
"But I have a funny feeling they might do.
"If you are a super fan, you want all of the stuff. "

She said to feel "emotional" ahead of their performance as they were part of her childhood.
She added: "It reminds me of sad times, good times and bad times.
"I am looking forward to dedicating a song to an auntie that passed away at the beginning of the year."
"Live Forever will be a special song."
Flo Abicht has come all the way from Germany to watch the concert and has said to have spent around £200 on Oasis memorabilia.
