Liam and Noel Gallagher have expressed their ‘shock and sadness’ after a fan attending their sold-out Oasis concert at Wembley Stadium tragically fell to his death.

A man, aged in his 40s, was fatally injured at around 10.19pm and is thought to have plunged from the upper tier balcony. 

One eyewitness told the Daily Mail they heard screams and shouts after the male had tumbled.

They said: ‘It was horrendous. The guy fell from a balcony. Paramedics came rushing over. There was a lot of screaming and shouting.

‘It was a big fall. God knows how it happened. It was so tragic. I don’t know how on earth it happened.

‘It was heartbreaking. He was only young.’

Oasis said in a statement that they were ‘shocked and saddened’ by the fan’s death.

‘Oasis would like to extend our sincere condolences to the family and friends of the person involved,’ they said.

The Daily Mail reports that the incident occurred as the concert concluded, with fireworks going off following the band’s performance of Champagne Supernova.

Another fan witnessed paramedics trying to revive the male after he had hit the concrete floor. 

They told The Sun they first thought a coat was falling from above until they looked over. 

Witnesses described the moment, saying, “I was right below in section 211. Initially, I thought it was just a coat dropping from the upper tier, but then I realized it was a person lying on the concrete. It was a horrifying sight,” they recounted.

Former Sky Sports presenter Richard Keys had been at Wembley last night to watch Oasis. 

He blamed the death on the ‘massive amount of alcohol allowed into the arena’. 

Writing on X, he said: ‘I heard about this last night. It’s so sad. Thoughts are with the family. 

‘The cause was the massive amount of alcohol allowed into the arena. I was astounded to see it. It wouldn’t happen at a football match. It shouldn’t happen at a concert.’

A spokesperson for the Met Police said: ‘At around 22:19hrs on Saturday, 2 August, officers on duty at Wembley Stadium for the Oasis concert responded alongside venue medics and the London Ambulance Service to reports that a person had been injured.

‘A man – aged in his 40s – was found with injuries consistent with a fall. He was sadly pronounced dead at the scene.

‘The stadium was busy, and we believe it is likely a number of people witnessed the incident, or may knowingly or unknowingly have caught it on mobile phone video footage.

‘If you have any information that could help us to confirm what happened, please call 101, quoting 7985/02AUG.’

A Wembley Stadium spokesperson said: ‘Last night, Wembley Stadium medics, the London Ambulance Service and the police attended to a concert goer who was found with injuries consistent with a fall.

‘Despite their efforts, the fan very sadly died.

‘Our thoughts go out to his family, who have been informed and are being supported by specially trained police officers.

‘The Police have asked anyone who witnessed the incident to contact them.

‘Tonight’s Oasis concert will go ahead as planned.’

Liam Gallagher’s ex-wife Nicole Appleton and her pal Spice Girl Emma Bunton were among watching Oasis perform last night. 

The former All Saints star took to Instagram on Saturday to reveal she was watching Oasis with Spice Girl Emma, her younger sister Nat and actress Donna Air.

Elsewhere on Saturday, Liam’s daughter Molly Moorish-Gallagher, 27 – who he shares with his ex Lisa Moorish – was also in attendance at his Oasis Wembley gig.

She posted some Instagram Stories from the crowd as she watched her dad and uncle perform to hundreds of thousands of people.

It’s been almost a month since the siblings performed together for the first time in 16 years following an epic falling out backstage in Paris which sparked the band’s split.

While it’s been feared that a major bust-up between the once-warring brothers could put a halt to the live shows, their latest gig showed that the pair are still on track.

Liam made a sweet onstage gesture to his brother Noel as they took to the stage on Wednesday.

As they continued their Oasis ’25 tour at during their third show at Wembley, Liam left fans in awe as he dedicated a song to his older brother, 58.

Ahead of belting out his next track, Liam told the crowd: ‘Now I’ve gotta dedicate this next tune to our kid – Stand By Me’, reports The Sun.

The emotional moment was captured by a fan who shared a clip to X, with music lovers rushing to the comments to share how it made them feel.
