The Courteeners will headline a bumper bill which also includes Johnny Marr, Blossoms, The Big Moon and Zuzu.
If there was ever a sign of live music making a return in the UK, it surely has to be The Courteeners announcing a huge outdoor gig in Manchester.
The band will play the Old Trafford cricket ground on September 25th, 2021, and are starting ticket sales from this Friday, June 11th.
It adds to some other big shows which The Courteeners have coming up this year, one being the comeback of TRNSMT Festival, when they’ll be leading a line-up which also has another big Manchester live draw, Liam Gallagher.
“Scotland took us straight to their hearts, right from the very start,” Liam Fray has said of TRNSMT. “Starting with playing the ABC with The Coral back in 2007, we’ve always had an amazing connection with the people of Scotland.”
“Feels like a 2nd home. To headline TRNSMT is a serious honour and we’ll be bringing a serious party.”
