Danny Dyer Joins Oasis Hysteria at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium!

Danny Dyer led the celebrities descending on Cardiff’s Principality Stadium for the long-awaited first night of Oasis’ reunion tour on Friday night.

Tens of thousands of fans have flocked to watch the much-anticipated comeback of one of the most popular bands in British history – 15 years after brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher parted ways after a backstage row.

And former EastEnders star Danny, 47, was seen joining in the hysteria in Cardiff just hours ahead of the concert as he bounded towards the 75,000-seater stadium. 

The actor, who has previously spoken of his love for the iconic group, was joined by a pal while sporting a dapper navy jacket, some coordinated slacks and a stylish pair of sunglasses.

A host of celebrities descended upon the Welsh capital on Friday to take in what’s been described as a ‘monumental’ day for British music.

Gavin and Stacey star Rob Brydon, was spotted at the show with his wife and two sons. The family were sat next to the BBC presenter Vernon Kay, 51, who was not with his wife the Strictly Come Dancing host, Tess Daly.

Anticipation for Liam and Noel’s return after a 15-year hiatus has been building all day with the Oasis Live ’25 tour at last kicking off.

The streets of the city have been ‘electric’ all day with a host of die-hard fans telling MailOnline of their excitement for the gig. 

Patrick Foley and his 10-year-old son, Alex, who is a self-proclaimed superfan, had travelled from Stroud to be there for the ‘monumental’ moment.  

Alex said: ‘I have been a fan for six to seven years, when my dad played a song I just fell in love with them, I’ll remember this forever.

‘I would rather be here than the Man United Champions league final, it’s a once in a lifetime. 

Despite being a longstanding superfan, it is Patrick’s first gig and said: ‘I wouldn’t rather be with anyone else than my son.’

Standing next to his wife Holly, 31, Welsh superfan Jarreth, 33, told MailOnline: ‘This is bigger than my wedding day. Well I can’t say that, it’s the top three. It goes wedding day, birth of our daughter Lila, who is named after the Oasis song, and then today.

Holly added: ‘The atmosphere here in Cardiff is electric. There’s never been a build up like this before, like this is way bigger than Taylor Swift when she came to Cardiff.

More than 75,000 fans will watch history be made as Noel, 58, and Liam, 52, appear for the first time on stage together in 16 years at the Welsh capital’s Principality Stadium 

‘We said that if Oasis ever got back together we would have to be there.’

The superfan couple spent more than £450 on Oasis merchandise, with two T-shirts and a bucket hat.

Glen, 42, a window cleaner from Essex who charges £1,000 as a part-time professional Liam Gallagher look-a-like, has been inundated with overexcited fans taking selfies.

He told MailOnline: ‘I got up this morning with a buzz. I think it’s going to take off for the next three or four months, it’s going to be massive, it’s going to be Supersonic.

‘I was here last July watching Noel at Cardiff Castle and you never would have thought a year later we’d be back here watching Oasis in the main stadium.

‘Everyone at school thinks I’m really cool. I woke up at 3am because I couldn’t sleep I was so excited to see Liam. 

‘You’d never believe it, it was just getting longer and longer, it was getting to the point but they’re in their prime to do it now, they’re not too old.

‘There’s been nothing like Oasis since the nineties so it’s nice that the next generation get to see them, it’s the perfect time for them.

‘This is going to be one of the biggest things that has happened in our lifetimes. This is going to be something that people have never experienced before

‘I got to see them in Nebworth in 2000, when I was 17. People genuinely think I’m Liam Gallagher so I’ve been taking a few selfies.’

The atmosphere was incredible in the stadium as tens of thousands of fans descended on the venue

He continued: ‘I’ve got Manchester next week, Wembley and then LA. I did my first lookalike event yesterday, I did a photoshoot in the Marstens pub in Cardiff, I’ve always turned it down.

‘But now obviously they’re back I have to do it, everyone is loving Oasis at the moment so it’s nice to help people get in the spirit, so I’ll be busy all summer. They’re fun to be fair and it’s good I’m going to be gigging around.’

Another fan, Luciana Barba, 44, had spent £1,000 to travel from Argentina to watch Oasis on Friday and Saturday night, admitting she had spent up to £3,000 on merchandise.

‘Today is the day,’ she told MailOnline.

Mental health workers Hazel, 26, and Neil, 58, were the only ones in their office to get tickets.

Hazel said: ‘The Ticketmaster thing is a nightmare. When you think £500 for a ticket, you think I could go on holiday for that like I could have gone and got an Airbnb for a weekend. So a lot of people were hesitant when they got the ticket but we said yes.

‘So the people that hesitated didn’t get them. The key is to never hesitate about this, it’s a once in a lifetime, history is being made, why wouldn’t you be here.

Meanwhile, Lifelong fan and mother-of-two from Cardiff, Kate, 44, wore a pair of shoes she bought 30 years ago when she was 16 for her birthday.

She said: ‘I never thought as a kid I would be able to wear these shoes and get to see them, it makes me really emotional.’

‘I’m getting emotional now. It’s a wonderful day I just hope Cardiff puts on a good a show as the boys do tonight. Well, they’re men, but they behave like boys sometimes!’

Jasmine, 18, had travelled seven hours from Newcastle with her school friend Josie, 18, and told MailOnline: ‘I always said I won’t die until Oasis come back together, I know I have the music taste of a divorced dad.

‘I actually couldn’t sleep last night. It was like Christmas ever, I was tossing and turning all night. Everyone is dressed like Liam Gallagher. And it’s the proper British way of going to Whetherspoons before the show, it’s buzzing here.

‘I would say we’re the youngest people here apart from little kids with their dads. Our parents are here, they are waiting in the pub while we’re there.

‘They think we’re ridiculous, my mum gave me a hug like she’s never going to see me again.

‘Our friends are really jealous, we were the only ones that managed to get tickets which were so expensive but it was so worth it.

‘It’s the highlight of our lives, if they fall out after this, we don’t care, we’ve seen them.’

Oasis fans were all smiles as they posed ahead of the first show in Cardiff

Supporters of the group made the most of the sunshine as they hit the pub before the show

‘We’ve seen Liam Gallagher’s son, Gene, live up in Newcastle for £11 and that was really good, it was a small band but it was really good, I got a signed t-shirt and everything.’

Elsewhere, Autumn, 26, surprised her parents Gareth, 52, and Karen, 47, with tickets as she told MailOnline: ‘I didn’t actually tell them that I had a presale code so I made them queue up with everyone else, just to torment them and then I surprised them.

‘We’re all superfans. Oasis is the reason why I moved to Manchester, just to be part of the scene up there. We’re from the Welsh valleys originally.’

She added: ‘I’ve spent over £200 on merchandise but I’ve been saving because I knew I wanted to buy things, it’s once in a lifetime, it’s not often you get to say you saw their first show back and it’s electric here, I’ve never seen Cardiff with so many people here.’

‘My dreams have come true.

‘It’s just an incredible opportunity. It’s a day we always hoped we have but never believed we would. To be part of it is incredible. Especially the first day because who knows what will happen later on, I hope they can hold it together and there will be a second night. But it’s historical the first night.

‘I’m so happy Cardiff can put on a day like this and the weather has turned up, we’re so proud they chose us to start off the tour. They have so many Welsh fans, I said to my son, ‘You won’t see as many gazelle sambas here ever again in your life’.’

David Griffin, 56, a postman said of his attendance: ‘We flew back from our holiday in Bosnia to come here. I always promised her that if they ever played again, I would take her. I mean she’s had no choice, she’s had to listen to it for 21 years.’

The band confirmed they would be hitting the stage at 8.15pm after warm up act Richard Ashcroft begins his set at 7:00pm

Fans downed drinks and soaked up the ‘electric’ atmosphere in the lead-up to the concert

His daughter, Chloe Griffin, 21, said: ‘I’ve grown up hearing it from every corner of my house so to actually be here, I can’t believe it.

Their friend Richard Ellis, 55, an aerospace engineer: ‘When we last saw him back in the nineties, Liam had a bit of an old school attitude spitting out larger and that which I’m not sure he’ll have now, he’s all clean living. But we’ve matured a bit since then, we were crowd surfing back then which I’m not sure will be happening.

‘Oasis absolutely love Cardiff, the only time I’ve seen the city like this is when Michael Jackson came, but even then it wasn’t like that. Today is special, it feels different.’

Elsewhere, a group of friends from Paris – Antione Bordeau, Clement Santoro and Alexandre Bordeau – had spent £1,300 each to attend the opening night before leaving the next day.

They paid an extra £90 on the Oasis collaboration with Adidas tracksuit tops.

Clement, 30, said: ‘We love the British people here, they have been so nice to us, everyone the bus drivers, the security guards. We love Oasis and we love the Welsh. We are experiencing proper Britain.’
