The accident occurred at the fourth of the group's five concerts at Wembley Stadium in London.

BarcelonaA man in his forties died this Saturday after falling from the upper tier of London's Wembley Stadium during an Oasis concert. Officers working at the stadium and medical staff were notified at around 10:20 p.m. According to police, the attendee had injuries consistent with a fall and was pronounced dead at the scene. Authorities are working to gather information from the public because they believe someone may have witnessed the accident and even recorded it on their mobile phone.

"We are shocked and saddened by the tragic death of a fan at last night's concert," the band shared in a statement sent to British media. Saturday's concert was the fourth of five that the Manchester band performed at the largest stadium in the United Kingdom, with a capacity of 90,000 people. The stands are divided into three levels, and the highest, and from where the man would have fallen, is located 50 meters above the ground.

A dangerous and slippery floor

Some concertgoers shared the news on Reddit after hearing that the upper tier was slippery because the floor was wet from spilled drinks. Other attendees claimed that both the middle and upper tiers were also treacherous and that the man could have fallen as the audience was beginning to leave the stadium. At Oasis' concert on Sunday, the day after the incident, the band dedicated the song Live forever to "all those who are not here." According to the New York TimesThe death of the Oasis concertgoer is the first fatal accident to occur at Wembley Stadium. In 2022, at a Harry Styles concert at Ibrox Stadium in Glasgow, a fan fell from the upper tier but did not suffer any serious injuries.
