A disabled Oasis fan has spoken out about the 'disgraceful' lack of accessibility at Wembley Stadium during a recent gig, leaving them struggling to enjoy the event. The fan, who wished to remain anonymous, described the experience as 'frustrating and humiliating,' highlighting the venue's poor facilities for disabled attendees.
The issue arose during Liam Gallagher's highly anticipated performance, where fans flocked to see the former Oasis frontman. However, for disabled attendees, the excitement was overshadowed by inadequate seating, restricted views, and a lack of proper assistance from staff.
'A Nightmare to Navigate'
The fan revealed that accessible seating was limited and poorly positioned, forcing them to miss large portions of the show. 'It felt like an afterthought,' they said. 'We paid the same price as everyone else but got a fraction of the experience.'
Other disabled concertgoers echoed these concerns, with many taking to social media to share their own negative experiences. One user wrote, 'Wembley needs to do better. Disabled fans deserve equal access.'
Calls for Change
Advocacy groups have since called for venues like Wembley to improve their accessibility standards. 'This isn't an isolated incident,' said a spokesperson for a disability rights organisation. 'Music venues must prioritise inclusivity to ensure all fans can enjoy live events.'
Wembley Stadium has yet to respond publicly to the criticism, but fans are hopeful that the backlash will prompt meaningful changes ahead of future events.
