The return of Oasis could give Manchester‘s economy a £15m boost.
Sacha Lord is night-time economy adviser to the Greater Manchester mayor Andy Burnham said the gigs will be “phenomenal” for the hospitality sector.
Tickets are “going to sell out in seconds” and bring a “real boost that we desperately need”, he said.
Mr Lord said he and his teams have applied a formula to the Oasis shows that they use to assess what Parklife brings to the local economy.
It’s easily going to be north of £15m in terms hotels rooms, taxis, bars, pubs
I was born in whole ‘Madchester’ period, I know how much music means in this city, and the fact that the whole of the world is again now looking at a band from Manchester, from Burnage, it’s what we’re about.
