Oasis in Edinburgh: All Edinburgh road closures in place during Oasis shows at Murrayfield

Tonight will see Oasis take to the stage at Murrayfield for the last of three sell-out gigs in the Scottish capital.

One of the most anticipated reunion shows in recent years, the Oasis Live 25 Tour will see around 210,000 fans attend the famous stadium over three nights. The three Oasis gigs run during one of the busiest times of the year in Edinburgh, when thousands of people visit the capital to enjoy the festival period – and significant traffic is expected in and around the city centre on concert days.

There is no public parking available at the stadium but extra trains, trams and buses will be running for the concerts and the festival season over August.

Ahead of the shows, the council has published a full list of road closures when the iconic band plays on August 8, 9 and 12 at Murrayfield Stadium. Emergency vehicular access will be maintained at all times.
