Man City confirm more Etihad Stadium concerts in 2027
Manchester City has confirmed that Etihad Stadium will host more live music gigs in July 2027 after Oasis's 11-night June residency. Stadium boss Danny Wilson said the venue is "back in the concert game," with further July shows planned, though artists have not been named. Industry rumours swirl around several major stars.
Key Takeaways
- Danny Wilson confirmed further concerts are being looked at for July 2027 at Etihad Stadium after Oasis's June run.
- Oasis will play an 11-night residency across June 2027, with more than half a million tickets on sale.
- No July 2027 artists have been announced; music industry sources have floated several stadium-tour names.
- The push sits within City's wider Medlock Square entertainment plans and a return of stadium concerts after the North Stand works.
The confirmation came as City formally opened the £300 million Medlock Square development beside the ground. Wilson told guests the Oasis announcement covered 11 nights in June next year, and that more concerts were being considered into July as well.
According to the Manchester Evening News, Wilson framed the message bluntly: the club is "back in the concert game." Concerts returned to the venue this summer with The Weeknd and Take That after several years without stadium shows while the North Stand expansion was completed.
What has Man City actually confirmed for Etihad Stadium?
Only the intent to stage more July 2027 shows has been confirmed alongside the already announced Oasis residency. Wilson and Manchester City have not named any additional artists or exact July dates.
Oasis's homecoming run is scheduled across June 2027, with competition expected to be fierce for more than 500,000 tickets. Read Man City reports the residency begins on 4 June and runs until 26 June, leaving July free for any extra bookings.
Wilson, Managing Director of Operations for Matchday and Medlock Square, said the campus aim over the next six to 12 months is to establish Medlock Square as a known entertainment destination, not only a matchday stop.
Which stars are rumoured for summer 2027 stadium shows?
No July booking at Etihad Stadium has been confirmed. MEN says music industry insiders have pointed to artists who could look at UK stadium dates in summer 2027, including Bruno Mars, Sam Fender, U2 and Ed Sheeran.
Fans are also watching for further Taylor Swift concert news after her new music announcement, while Harry Styles has announced a tour extension into 2027 without new north-west homecoming dates so far. Those names remain speculation, not club confirmations.
Why does another busy concert summer matter for Manchester?
More Etihad Stadium gigs would deepen a bumper live-music summer already anchored by Oasis, and support City Group plans to pair the stadium with neighbouring Co-op Live and the new Medlock Square amenities.
Wilson also pointed ahead to sport: the Etihad will host England's first Euro 2028 game and four other tournament matches, and Manchester is among proposed venues if the UK and Ireland bid for the 2035 Women's World Cup succeeds.
