Around 4.20am police were called to Union Street by North West Ambulance Service paramedics.
The victim was found with stab wounds and was taken to hospital in a critical condition, before he was pronounced dead on arrival.
Detectives in Greater Manchester Police's Major Incident Team then launched a murder probe. They are now questioning a man in his 30s on suspicion of murder.
While formal identification has not yet taken place, GMP says officers believe the victim is a man in his 40s from Oldham.
