Sydney Olympic Park

Oasis superfans began lining up at Sydney Olympic Park from sunrise to secure prime spots for the band's highly anticipated concerts. The Gallagher Brothers are performing together in Australia for the first time since 2005, with 70,000 attendees expected each night at Accor Stadium.

The Sydney shows follow recent concerts in Melbourne, and excitement among fans is high, with many expressing they have waited decades for this event. Authorities advise non-attendees to avoid the area due to large crowds, though some tickets remain available for last-minute buyers.

Morning Glory Earth, that is how long some superfans have been waiting here for since sunrise, trying to get the best seat in the house for this show and I can tell you one thing, they are not going to be looking back in anger after tonight's concert. 70,000 people expected for the first Sydney show tonight, another 70,000 people expected to pack out of Core Stadium tomorrow night. Sydney shows follow those Melbourne ones, but we know anything that Melbourne can do, we can do better. There is so much excitement here. The last time the Gallagher Brothers toured together was way back in 2005 in Australia, so many of the people who are attending tonight weren't even old enough to be at those concerts. They have been waiting a long time for this and it is not long now until the show gets underway. Cool, I guess it is like back in 18 BC, you had Jesus, to me today you have got Oasis. It is going to be one of the biggest nights of my life personally, I just needed to not die until today. Cannot wait, you know, we have been only waiting about 20 years for this mate. So some pretty excited fans are around me right now, they cannot wait for this show tonight. It is going to be very busy here tonight Earth, the advice is if you are not coming to the concert, avoid this area, these crowds are going to be huge. But I am a journalist, I have done my research, there are still some tickets available, so Earth I think maybe, just maybe, you could get one and make it down here just in time after the news. I will see you there, thanks JP.
