Oasis fans complain of long lines into Accor Stadium as gig starts

Oasis fans face long lines at Accor Stadium before Sydney show

Oasis fans expressed frustration over extensive lines outside Accor Stadium ahead of the band’s sold-out Sydney concert, with several saying they missed the opening songs. Footage showed massive crowds stretching hundreds of meters as people waited to enter the venue on Friday night in Homebush.

“Security are probably checking for flares!”
“This is the usual situation in all venues nowadays. Queue management is just royally messed up.”
“Few people missing out on first song!”

Many fans had been lining up since early morning, leading to heavy traffic on major Sydney roads. Transport for NSW urged ticket holders to use free public transport to reach the venue.

“Oasis fans have waited a long time for this sold-out reunion tour. With Oasis only playing Sydney and Melbourne on the Australian leg, fans should plan their trips and consider public transport options to Olympic Park,” said Transport for NSW Coordinator-General Howard Collins.

Organizers hope the concert avoids the logistical issues seen during the Melbourne show earlier this week.
