Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds’ headline performance at London’s Alexandra Palace Park on 20 July will be opened by the renowned indie brothers Hugo, Felix and Will White, 86TVs, and Echo & The Bunnymen, following their current Best Of tour through March 2024 celebrating their 40+ year career.
Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds’ summer 2024 headline shows will follow a series of warm-up gigs this month at some of the UK’s most intimate venues. Upcoming shows at Poole’s Lighthouse (17 March), Bournemouth O2 Academy (18 March) and Portsmouth’s Guildhall (20 March) all sold out immediately – and will arrive ahead of Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds returning to the Royal Albert Hall to perform for Teenage Cancer Trust.

Headlining both Kendall Calling and Y Not Festival in August, Noel will also perform huge outdoor headline gigs at Warwick Castle (Sunday 21 July), Cardiff Castle (Wednesday 17 July), and an already sold out The Piece Hall at Halifax (Thursday 1 August) after sell out shows at these venues in 2022.

The shows will mark Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds’ first live performances after their triumphant run of UK arena dates in December. The tour was a huge finale to 2023 after touring across three continents, a mammoth 26 date tour of North America, and epic headline outdoor gigs including Crystal Palace Bowl, Brighton Beach and more, all in celebration of the release of Noel’s fourth solo studio album, ‘Council Skies’. The summer culminated with the band’s biggest ever headline gig to date, a massive homecoming show at Manchester’s Wythenshawe Park on August Bank Holiday weekend.
