BRITPOP and beer obviously belong together: fans of the Gallagher brothers have set a new record in the current Oasis live ’25 concerts in the London Wembley Stadium. With an average of 250,000 pints sold per show, more than ever before.
Like the catering company Delaware North According to “NME” confirmed, even the previous top value of Coldplay (120,000 pints) was clearly exceeded. Taylor Swift’s spectators had just achieved a third of what Oasis fans drank away on their Eras tour last year.
The demand for beer at the legendary Britpop concerts is so great that the stadium staff was forced to use improvised storage rooms under escalators and in maintenance chambers. The catering crews move around 4,500 beer barrels per show. Logistic state of emergency on an already record -breaking tour.
With a pint price of 8.20 pounds, around two million pounds of sales come together alone through beer-at around 80,000 fans per show. However, the amount per person actually drunk is likely to be well above the average of three pints, since many guests also choose other drinks or remain abstinent.
Beer record in Wembley: Oasis as an economic engine
The Gallagher euphoria is also noticeable outside the stadium. The pubs in the area report over full bars, especially along the railway lines to the stadium. “The pubs were full to the roof,” said Martin Williams from the Evolv restaurant group. A welcome upswing in a year full of economic challenges for the industry.
Already at the first tour stops in Cardiff and Manchester, Oasis provided exploding sales figures. In Cardiff, a local brewery reported a quadrupling of her sales. Beer and cider sales rose by 56 percent in Manchester. In addition, around 250,000 pounds flow from the Heaton Park concerts into local music projects.

After the shows this weekend in Wembley, the “Live ’25” tour continues through Edinburgh, Dublin and North and South America, Australia, South Korea and Japan. Two final Wembley appointments in September complete the tour.
