All Edinburgh bus diversions in place for Oasis concerts at Murrayfield
It is only a matter of days before legendary rock band Oasis take Edinburgh by storm when they play three sold-out shows at Murrayfield Stadium.
The Britpop icons perform at Murrayfield on August 8, 9 and 12, with the three gigs brining in around 210,000 Oasis fans to the stadium. A series of road closures will be in place before, during and after the event, and extra trains, trams and buses will be running during the concerts.
A total of 13 Lothian Bus services will be diverted during the Oasis shows, however the bus operator noted that customers should check for live updates as some diversions will only be in place depending of the size of crowds on the evening.
