Noel Gallagher at Kendal Calling 2024: set time, weather and possible setlist including Oasis favourites

• Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds’ are one of four headliners performing at Kendal Calling this week.
• The former Oasis frontman joins Paul Heaton (Thursday,) The Streets (Saturday,) and Paolo Nutini (Sunday.)
• Here’s a look at the weather at the Lake District for Noel Gallagher’s set and what he could play at Kendal Calling 2024.

Kendal Calling opens this week in the Lake District, with the little festival that could headlined on Friday by Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds (August 2 2024.)

The former Oasis frontman has been touring with his High Flying Birds’ backing band across Asia recently, including a performance last weekend at the hallowed Fuji Rock festival - the highlights of which are available now through Amazon Prime Video. 

Those dates come after a widespread tour of the United Kingdom earlier in the year, including a performance at Alexandra Palace, which Matthew Mohan-Hickson managed to attend, going as far as to state the performance “ the perfect mix of old and new. It blended the highs from across his majestic career, including a barnstorming final 30 minutes of Oasis hit after Oasis hit which sent the crowd into a state of euphoric ecstasy usually only reserved for religious ceremonies.” 

“It was the perfect reminder of why he is one of Britain’s most enduring songwriters. And as the curtain came down after the incredible Don’t Look Back in Anger finale it did leave me (and probably many others) dreaming of an ever-unlikely Oasis reunion.”

While many still long for that great Oasis reunion at some stage, with both Liam Gallagher’s sets incorporating a great deal of “Definitely Maybe” throughout his sets and Noel Gallagher following suit, the closest we’re going to get at the moment are back-to-back festival performances, but there’s been no sign of the pair sharing a festival bill in the near future.

But stranger things have occurred in the world of music - The Stone Roses reforming for example. So while we want for the multi-million-pound Oasis reunion, here’s when Noel Gallagher is performing at Kendal Calling, what he could play and what the weather is forecasted to be during his set.

What could Noel Gallagher perform at Kendal Calling 2024?
