Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds headline Robin Park on Thursday 18th July.

Wigan has a long, illustrious music history. From George Formby’s emergence in the 1930s to the infamous Northern Soul scene that emerged at Wigan Casino between 1973 and 1981, before making its own contribution to the ’90s Britpop phenomena with The Verve, it has consistently contributed to the UK’s world-renowned music scene. In 2024, the next chapter will be written with a huge outdoor concert series, featuring some of the UK’s most beloved and acclaimed live acts.
