PUBLISHED ONLONDON — UK's hospitality industry is gearing up for a multi-million-pound boost from the Oasis concerts next summer, after brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher announced plans to reunite for a series of gigs.
Both brothers have enjoyed individual musical success and acclaim since Oasis split up, but always against the backdrop of calls from fans for the band to reunite and tour once again. Cheap hotel rooms appeared to disappear from travel sites in places such as Manchester, and the band's website briefly crashed. Tickets go on sale on the morning of Aug 31.
The Welsh government said concerts there would attract thousands of visitors to Cardiff, and provide a substantial economic boost to its hospitality, retail and transport businesses, bringing in millions of pounds.In Dublin, searches for hotels spiked within minutes of the announcement, Google data showed. Of 12 high-end Dublin hotels with rooms for the night of the first gig on Kayak.com, a third had doubled their prices from the previous week.
