The Clone Roses, alongside a host of other Manchester band tribute acts, will be taking to the stage at Heaton Park next summer.
The massive outdoor gig will celebrate our city’s rich musical heritage, with names like Oas-is, The Smiths Ltd, and Courtbetweeners all performing.
The show comes in celebration of The Clone Roses’ 25th anniversary and follows the success of last year’s Spike Island gig.
‘Heaton Park – The Resurrection’ will see the much-loved The Stone Roses tribute band follow in the footsteps of their idols Ian Brown, John Squire, Mani and Reni.

A decade after The Stone Roses’ 2012 reunion gigs at Heaton Park, The Clone Roses will be commemorating their own milestone.

Gav Scott (aka ‘Ian’) says: “We’ve been wanting to do Heaton Park for ages but it’s such a popular and busy park. When the opportunity finally came, we couldn’t say no!
“Over the years, we’ve played the Blackpool Empress Ballroom, Spike Island, and now this… it feels like we’ve completed The Stone Roses cycle to a certain degree!”

Speaking of those 2012 Heaton Park gigs, which Gav watched from the crowd, he said: “We went on the Saturday and it was strange for us as we weren’t really getting into it like everyone else… we were thinking things like ‘what’s Mani wearing’, ‘what’s the guitar John is playing,’ making notes on setlist!
“Still loved it mind, and we never got to see them first time round so it was an incredible moment for us… That Roses Heaton Park setlist was all the classic songs you’d hope them to play so I’ve no doubt our show will be very similar to their set in 2012.”
He continued: “We’d love to celebrate our 25th Anniversary in the city that have been so loyal to us from day one.

“I think people have accepted that we really put the effort into recreating a Roses show and they are really supportive of what we do. In terms of the day itself, there’s going to be an absolute feast of Manchester music!”
Warm-up acts will include famous faces from the original Madchester era, like DJ sets from Bez and Clint Boon.
There’ll also be other ‘cloners’ (or tribute acts) including Oas-is, The Smiths Ltd, The Courtbetweeners, Happy Mondaze and The James Experience.
Heaton Park: The Resurrection will take place on Saturday 13 May 2023.
Tickets will be priced from £22.50, with VIP packages available, and go on sale on Saturday 5 November at 10am. You can get yours at www.the-resurrection.co.uk.

Oasis Live ’27 – how to get tickets to huge Manchester Etihad Stadium run
Daisy Jackson
Oasis are officially heading back out on tour, announcing 11 massive nights at the Etihad Stadium for 2027 – but tickets will work a little differently this time around.
The legendary Manchester band will be running the ticket onsale via a registration process, to give ‘genuine fans the best possible chance of getting tickets’.
Unlike a normal ticket sale, where fans can all battle in queues and waiting rooms to buy tickets in a general sale, this time fans must register to even get in the queue.
They’ve made the decision because of ‘anticipated extremely high demand for Oasis Live ’27’.
Those who fought the Ticketmaster War for Taylor Swift Eras Tour tickets will be familiar with the process, but here’s everything Oasis have shared so far.
A registration process will be in place to access the onsale for Oasis Live ’27 – this is the only public way to access tickets.
Registrants will be selected at random to receive a unique code, which will allow you to try and get tickets.
You must use the email used for your Ticketmaster account to register for the process.
Receiving a code does not guarantee that you will be able to buy tickets, but it does get you into the right queue.
There will then be different onsale times and dates for different shows and cities, with ticket onsales taking place between Friday 25 September and Sunday 27 September.
After entering your email, you’ll receive an extra link, where you can rank your preference on cities you would like to see Oasis in.
Fans will then have to answer a trivia question – ‘Which Oasis album was released in 1995?’
Registration for Oasis Live ’27 tickets is open now HERE, and you have until 4pm on Thursday 17 September to register.
