Oasis Wonderwall challenge

Calling any Oasis fans who know the words of Wonderwall – there is a one day only open mic singing competition in Stockbridge on Saturday. The open‑mic competition – the first‑ever Wonderwall World Championships – will take place on Saturday 9 August at Stockbridge Social, the city's new outdoor food and drink market backed by Innis & Gunn. Hosted by A View from the Terrace's Craig Telfer, performances will be judged by a panel of Wonderwall connoisseurs. The winner will take home a 'Wonderwall' of Innis & Gunn – six feet of award‑winning Scottish beer – while every participant will receive a pint of Innis & Gunn Lager Beer for stepping up to the mic. During the afternoon before Oasis play their second concert at Murrayfield, the event will offer fans the chance to warm up their vocal chords on the Britpop anthem – a song which has racked up more than 2.4 billion Spotify streams and is a consistent top‑10 karaoke Sharp, Founder and Master Brewer at Innis & Gunn, said: 'Like Oasis, we have never been afraid to do things our own way. 'Wonderwall has cemented itself into British culture and everybody knows it. And after all, as soon as those opening chords ring out, you know it's going to be a good time. 'With the Gallaghers coming to Edinburgh, we thought it was the perfect time to let people have their own moment in the spotlight. Grab a pint, grab the mic and show us your Wonderwall.' Stockbridge Social is a new venture powered by Innis & Gunn. Set within the oasis of Stockbridge at the Edinburgh Academicals sports ground, Food traders include Cromars, previously crowned East Scotland's best fish and chips. They'll be joined by steak frites specialists Flame to Fork, pizza firm Wanderers Kneaded. As well as Innis & Gunn's beer, Edinburgh Gin and Lost Orchards, the cider makers known for replanting Scotland's lost orchards, will be on sale. Stockbridge Social joins Innis & Gunn's Edinburgh portfolio, which already includes the Mound site. The Wonderwall World Championships will be taking place on Saturday 9 August from 1pm, with free entry on the day. Like this: Like Related
