Remembering Devoted Oasis Fan Following Regrettable Incident during Wembley Performance
In a shocking turn of events, a fan of Oasis, Lee Claydon, tragically lost his life during the band's concert at Wembley Stadium on August 2, 2025. The 40-year-old man was found with injuries consistent with a fall from an upper tier of the stadium, and despite the best efforts of emergency services, he was pronounced dead at the scene.
The band responded to the tragedy with a statement expressing their "shock and sadness" over the incident, and they extended their "sincere condolences" to the family and friends of Mr. Claydon. Wembley Stadium officials also offered their thoughts and support to the family during this difficult time.
Lee Claydon was described by his family as a "loving family man," and his cousin, Shannon Gabrielle, shared her shock over his sudden and unexpected passing on Facebook. Aaron Claydon, Lee's brother, also expressed his disbelief and sorrow over the loss on the social media platform.
The incident occurred on Sunday during the Oasis Live '25 reunion tour, which features sold-out performances at Wembley, accommodating up to 90,000 attendees across three tiers. The band's London concert went ahead as planned despite the incident, and they continued their tour.
Oasis is scheduled to perform next at Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh and continue their tour across Ireland, Canada, the US, and Mexico. The band plans to return to Wembley on September 27 and 28, maintaining their connection with fans amidst the loss they have experienced.
A GoFundMe campaign was established to assist Lee's partner and sons, raising over £4,500 in support. The Metropolitan Police believe several witnesses may have seen the incident, potentially capturing it on mobile phones.
Our thoughts and condolences go out to the family and friends of Lee Claydon during this difficult time. May he rest in peace.
