Oasis releases Knebworth concert details for fans worried about travel and accommodation
We’re already gearing up for big summer next year thanks to the Gallagher brothers.
And while their playing a long stint of shows at Manchester’s Etihad Stadium, Glasgow’s Celtic Park and Ireland’s Slane Castle, let’s be honest, Knebworth is the biggie.
Oasis are returning to the iconic concert venue for the first time since 1996 for four shows on 11, 12, 18 and 19 September 2027.
We’re on the time crunch now though, as registration for the chance to buy tickets closes at 4pm today (17 September).

Plus, if you are hoping for Knebworth tickets, there’s also the likes of travel and accommodation to consider. And luckily, Oasis’ team are putting on various transport options as well as a ‘Campsite Village’ to help fans have an absolutely biblical time next year.
Promoter for Oasis, Rob Ballantine, said: “Oasis have challenged us to make Oasis Live ‘27 at Knebworth the best possible fan experience - this is our goal.
“Working with Great British Rail we have trains running from Stevenage direct to London Kings Cross after every show until 01:30am, with train tickets at £10. We will also have the largest coach service for any cultural event in the UK.
“Customers can avoid concert day travel altogether if they choose the campsite option for a Saturday show, arriving on Friday and enjoying the Campsite Village atmosphere, leaving on Sunday morning after the Saturday concert.
“We have created the largest Accessible Viewing Platform for a Knebworth gig and, in another first, three grandstands at the rear of the arena will provide a reserved seat and access to hospitality in the Knebworth House Gardens.
“To help create the best possible experience, we are encouraging fans not to come by car, but to take advantage of the new options we have created for Oasis Live ‘27 at Knebworth.”
Trains
In a first for a concert at Knebworth, Great British Rail are going to offer train tickets to London Kings Cross from Stevenage Station after all Oasis Live ’27 shows there.
Taking approximately 30 minutes, the direct service will run from 11:30pm to 1:30am. Prices will be capped at £10 exclusively for concert goers.
It’s worth noting that this ticket is a one-way option and fans will have to choose their own route to get to Knebworth.
Coaches
There will be return travel routes on coaches from over 120 locations across the UK.
Fans will be able to choose from three coach ticket zones via Ticketmaster, choosing their pick-up point and seat.
Getting there, fans will be dropped off a five minute walk from the venue. And returning, fans will have an hour to board their return coach after the concert.
Food outlets, bars and toilets will stay open for coach travellers.
Campsite Village
Marking yet another first for Knebworth, there’s going to be an independent purpose-built Campsite Village with its own dedicated car park and concert entrance.
Camping will only be available for the Saturday shows. Those who successfully purchase a Saturday ticket will have the option to add on a Campsite Village ticket.
This will allow for arrival the day before the gig, campsite car parking, a campsite pitch and direct walk-through access from the campsite to the arena.
There’ll even be late night entertainment in the Campsite Village on both Friday and Saturday nights.
The Campsite Village is priced at £60 per person.
Grandstand and Hospitality
Oasis promoters are set to construct a ‘grandstand’ at the rear of the arena offering a front view of the stage, reserved seat accessed via stairs.
Toilets will be located immediately behind it with a pedestrian bridge to allow access to Knebworth Gardens where there’s premium hospitality available.
Accessible Viewing
In front of this grandstand will be the largest accessible viewing platform ever constructed at Knebworth.
Accessed by ramps, it will offer a direct front facing view of the stage.
Further access options will be announced.
Fans who are successful after registering will be sent a unique, non-transferable code to access an allocated onsale window. In the UK, onsale will take place across Friday 25, Saturday 26 and Sunday 27 September, with three onsale windows on each day. Fans will be informed directly which of the onsale windows they can access, and at what time.
Tickets will be onsale via Ticketmaster.
