Marston’s launches PubLife, a UK-wide summer celebration of the ‘90s in over 500 pubs
4th July 2025
Yesterday, regulars at Marston’s pub The Crwys Hotel in Cardiff couldn’t believe their eyes when Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher showed up for a pint ahead of the first show of the reunion tour in Cardiff.

The lookalike was organised by Marston’s to launch PubLife - a summer celebration of all things ‘90s, which will see nostalgia-driven events taking place in over 500 local Marston’s pubs across the UK throughout July and August.

Pubs will be hosting big weekends of activity, including everything from tribute bands and live music to Britpop bingo, music takeovers and ‘90s karaoke, giving anyone who missed out on Oasis tickets the next best thing. Each participating pub will have a list of events on their websites.
A ‘90s night out wouldn’t be complete without some nostalgic drink serves, so Marston’s has also teamed up with Hooch, Pepsi, and Smirnoff to recreate ‘cocktails’ and iconic tipples from yesteryear.
Pubgoers will be able to sip classic mixed drinks such as Vodka and Pepsi, Malibu and Pepsi, Bacardi and Pepsi, Archer’s and Lemonade or three flavours of the original ‘90s icon Hooch, while enjoying the entertainment. To celebrate Hooch’s 30th birthday, new cocktails will also be available in pints, or pitchers to share.

John Green, Operations Director at Marston’s, said:
“With the Oasis reunion tour kicking off tonight, the UK is really getting back into the nostalgic spirit. We loved surprising some of our loyal regulars at The Crwys with a visit from Liam and are very much looking forward to keeping locals up and down the country entertained this summer with PubLife.
“Whether they bagged Oasis tickets or not, we want as many people as possible to dig out their ‘90s clobber and head down to their local for some amazing music, entertainment, and classic drinks.”
