We’ve taken a look back in our photo archive to find classic Britpop Edinburgh memories, whether that be bands from the genre born in the 90s such as Blur and Oasis playing the Capital, Britpop stars making surprise appearances, or Edinburgers going crazy for the “drunken guitar pop” as Noel Gallagher once called it.
And with talk of Oasis possibly playing Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh next summer as part of a record-breaking reunion tour, we look at their previous Edinburgh shows including two previous stints at the home of Scottish rugby.
We found photos of other Britpop bands appearing here over the years, including Blur, Suede, Ocean Colour Scene and The Charlatans, and our very own Finley Quaye.
