Liam Gallagher is back and he’s heading out on a massive UK tour next year, with not one but THREE Manchester dates on the lineup.

Liam Gallagher is a name that needs no introduction, right? The enigmatic former Oasis frontman has been absolutely no stranger to stepping on the biggest stages of them all and performing in front of record-breaking crowds throughout his illustrious career.

Just last year, the 51-year-old rocker returned to the iconic Knebworth Park to play a series of “biblical” gigs that went on to be some of the biggest live events of 2022.

And now, the king of Manchester is back at it again, as he’s just been revealed as the latest headliner in the Co-op Live’s massive opening season next year.

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the release of Oasis’s massively influential debut album, Definitely Maybe, Liam will be embarking upon the ‘Definitely Maybe 30 Years’ arena tour in 2024.

He’ll be playing the album in full for the first time ever.

The sets will, of course, be packed with classics like ‘Rock ‘n’ Roll Star’, ‘Live Forever’, ‘Supersonic’, and ‘Cigarettes & Alcohol’, but there’ll also be a unique opportunity to see other album tracks and B-sides that have rarely, if ever, been performed since the mid-90s – including ‘Up In The Sky’ and ‘Digsy’s Dinner’.

Liam says he’s “bouncing around the house” with excitement as he announces the new tour.

He added: “The most important album of the ‘90s bar none. I wouldn’t be anywhere without it and neither would you, so let’s celebrate together LG x”
