The Oasis Leisure Centre was an entertainment and sports complex just outside of Swindon town centre with facilities including a lagoon swimming pool (The last of its kind) ,gym, bar, and concert hall that was able to handle approximately 3,000 people . It was in operation from 1976 and was closed in November 2020 after the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic restrictions ended.
In the 1990s, the rock band Oasis took their name from the leisure centre after lead singer Liam Gallagher suggested it.
Alterations in 1987 added three enclosed waterslides, at the time the longest in the country, which were accessed from a tower outside the dome. In that year the Oasis was Wiltshire's most popular tourist attraction.
Being from Swindon myself I have a lot of great childhood
memories of the visits to the oasis so it's heart breaking to see the site in such a poor state.
