Liam Gallagher has announced a new documentary based around his huge Knebworth shows this summer.Knebworth 22 is a feature-length film documenting the Oasis singer’s return to Knebworth Park, 26 years after his band’s iconic gigs at the Hertfordshire venue.The film will come to select UK cinemas for a limited time from November 17, with a full streaming release on Paramount+ later this year.“I’m still in shock that I got to play Knebworth 2 nights, 26 years after I played it with Oasis,” Gallagher said in a statement. “I’m still trying to get my head around it.“To have played to multiple generations at the same venue so many years apart was beyond Biblical.

I’m so glad that we documented it. Knebworth for me was and always will be a celebration of the fans as well as the music. Enjoy the film and let’s do it again in another 26 years.

At a time when it’s easy to feel powerless to the weight of the world around us, hopefully this film can be a small reminder of what we’re capable of overcoming.
