Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds to headline Lytham Festival
Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds will headline the Thursday night at this year’s Lytham Festival.
The week-long festival returns to the Lancashire town of Lytham from August 1 – 7 with the main headliners performing in the Festival Arena on Lytham Green.
Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds will headline on Lytham Green on Thursday August 4.
Tickets go on general sale at 9am Friday March 4 and are available from www.ticketmaster.co.uk or www.ticketline.co.uk
The Lytham Festival gig will mark the first time multi-award winning singer and songwriter Noel has played live on the Fylde Coast since October 1995 when his former band Oasis performed a now legendary show at Blackpool’s iconic Empress Ballroom on the very day the landmark album (What’s The Story) Morning Glory was released.
Lytham Festival is organised by promoters Cuffe and Taylor who have worked tirelessly over the last six years to bring live music to Lytham as well as a host of major events and festivals across the UK.
Director Peter Taylor said: “We are absolutely delighted to announce that Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds are to headline the Thursday night at Lytham Festival 2016.
“Noel is without question a British music legend and cultural icon who has written some of the biggest and best anthems of the last 30 years.
“Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds is going to be an amazing night for Lytham. The fact this will be Noel’s first appearance on the Fylde Coast since that legendary night in 1995 will make this extra special and so we simply can’t wait for August 4.”
The news Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds are to perform on Thursday August 4 follows the announcement that Friday August 5 will be a Remix night which will include performances from Village People, Earth Wind & Fire and Bay City Rollers. Saturday August 6 sees Canadian rock legend Bryan Adams headline, while Sunday August 7 is West End Proms when a startling array of West End and Broadway stars will perform.
