Oasis Fans Set Beer Record at Wembley by Downing 250,000 Pints Per Night

Beer vendors have literally had their hands full keeping up with demand at Oasis’ ongoing run of reunion shows at Wembley Stadium. As first reported by The Caterer (via The Times), attendees have downed a record-setting amount of 250,000 pints per night.

Based on data released by the stadium’s catering company, Delaware North, Oasis fans have far outpaced last year’s shows from Coldplay (around 120,000 pints) and Taylor Swift (40,000).

Navigating logistics for moving 4,500 kegs in and out of the venue was a challenge that Delaware North has “not had to deal with before,” the catering services director confirmed to The Caterer. To find the necessary space, the company fought what they described as a “turf war” to convert previously unused areas under escalators and cupboards into cold storage.

Similarly, Oasis’ earlier shows at Heaton Park were a boon to their hometown of Manchester, leading the city to open a £250,000 fund to help support local music venues.
