View this post on Instagram A post shared by Oasis (@oasis) What's on the setlist? At the opening concert in Cardiff, the songs were as follows: Hello Acquiesce Morning Glory Some Might Say Bring It On Down Cigarettes & Alcohol Fade Away Supersonic Roll With It Talk Tonight Half the World Away Little By Little D'You Know What I Mean Stand By Me Cast No Shadow Slide Away Whatever Live Forever Rock and Roll Star The Masterplan Don't Look Back in Anger Wonderwall Champagne Supernova Who's actually in the band? The line-up consists of Liam and Noel Gallagher, Andy Bell on bass, Gem Archer and Paul 'Bonehead' Arthurs on guitar with session players on drums and keyboard. Who is supporting? The band has been criticised for choosing well-established acts over less well-known up-and-comers, with some fans suggesting Oasis's tour could have provided a much-needed leg-up for fresh new talent. But the artists Oasis have selected should get the crowd fired up regardless: former The Verve frontman Richard Ashcroft will perform solo, as well as indie rock band Cast. Support on the US leg of the tour will come from Cage the Elephant. The dates at Manchester's Heaton Park are expected to start earlier than the ones in stadiums, leading to rumours the event could fling open its doors from earlier in the day and offer other, additional support acts. However, this has not yet been confirmed. Where to buy merch Yet to sort out your bucket hat, Adidas sweatshirt or band tee? Don't fear – to capitalise on demand, there will be numerous official pop-up shops across the country selling Oasis merchandise ahead of the tour. Pop-up stores can be found in Manchester (on The Avenue, Spinningfields), London (Carnaby Street), Cardiff, Edinburgh, Birmingham and Dublin, plus there are official merchandise stands outside and inside the gigs. Fans visiting the pop-up stores will be able to buy exclusive clothing, home accessories (everything from mugs, pint glasses and baby grows to Zippo lighters) and vinyl records. To gain entry, fans can either book an (advised) timed entry slot or queue.

These can be purchased (by pre-order) on the official Adidas website as well as online retailer ASOS, plus from an official store in Manchester city centre. Be quick, though: many items have already sold out. Manchester has truly embraced the celebratory atmosphere, with a local Aldi supermarket transforming into 'Aldeh' in a riff on the Gallagher's accents. Our tips – from those who've been The shows are guaranteed to be rowdy, but just try to embrace it. Nobody knows exactly what the performance will entail, but you can count on a fair few pints of beer (and other fluids) being chucked over the crowd, so don't wear your fanciest clothes – comfortable walking shoes, a raincoat and a protective bucket hat are gig/festival staples for a reason. Plus, pack those earplugs: even if the music and speakers aren't too deafening, the screams from the excited crowd are bound to be. Get there early if you're standing and want to source a good spot and not-so-early if you're seated. Oasis will take to the stage in Cardiff at 20:15 with a strict curfew of 22:30. Exact timings for the other shows are yet to be confirmed, but gigs at Wembley Stadium and other similar-sized venues generally finish by 11pm, to conform to noise pollution rules, so expect a kick off of around 8.30pm from Oasis; support acts will start much earlier. The Manchester date, which is taking place outside in Heaton Park, looks set to be more of a day festival-style set-up. Ticket information Tickets for the UK tour sold out in minutes, but it is worth keeping an eye on sites such as Ticketmaster, See Tickets and Twickets for returns and resale tickets. Be careful of scams: unregulated websites purporting to have tickets will probably rip you off, and if you see an amazing bargain on social media, remember – if it seems too good to be true, it probably is. Using PayPal to purchase tickets also adds another layer of protection: remember to mark the payment as 'Goods and Services' so the transaction is protected by the company's Buyer Protection Programme.
