Oasis Walking Tour of Manchester

Step into the story of Oasis with the Wonderwalk Manchester Tour, a walking experience through the streets that shaped Britain’s most legendary rock ‘n’ roll band. This isn’t just a casual stroll — it’s a deep dive back to the early 1990s, when Liam and Noel Gallagher transformed backstreet pubs, scruffy rehearsal rooms, and hidden corners of Manchester into the birthplace of anthems that still echo around the world.

Led by Joe, an expert local guide who grew up in Burnage and went to school with the Gallagher brothers, you’ll get an insider’s glimpse into the working-class neighbourhood where Oasis began. Joe’s personal connection and local stories breathe life into the pavements and alleyways where the Gallaghers once dreamed, brawled, and wrote the songs that would make them Supersonic.

As you wander from the iconic Free Trade Hall to famous gig spots like the Boardwalk, you’ll uncover the real-life landmarks that became part of the band’s DNA. Stand where they played their earliest shows, peek into pubs that inspired Cigarettes & Alcohol, and hear tales of the fights, friendships, and family ties that forged their sound and attitude. Along the way, hidden murals and street art celebrate the band’s lasting legacy, tucked under railway arches and on the walls of venues that saw the birth of Definitely Maybe and Morning Glory.

More than a tribute to Oasis alone, this tour is a celebration of Manchester’s place at the heart of British music history. From the raw energy of the Hacienda to the echoes of Joy Division, The Smiths, New Order, and The Stone Roses, you’ll discover how Manchester’s industrial edge and rebellious spirit made it a breeding ground for musical revolution.

Expect an easy pace, plenty of time for photos and laughs, and Joe’s down-to-earth humour and passion for the music that put his city on the global stage. Whether you’re an Oasis superfan, a Britpop nostalgic, or simply curious about Manchester’s unbeatable music heritage, this tour is your chance to walk, listen, and Live Forever — right where it all began.
