With the announcement of their Oasis Live '25 reunion tour, British rock legends Oasis—led by the notorious Gallagher brothers, Liam and Noel—have sparked excitement throughout the music industry. The band will perform live for the first time in sixteen years during this summer's run of shows in the United Kingdom and Ireland.
The information was made public on Tuesday when Oasis announced the conclusion of their protracted break, which had been sparked by a well-known altercation behind closed doors at the 2009 Rock en Seine event in Paris. "There is no longer any gunfire. The universe is in harmony. The long wait is now over. Come observe. Oasis declared, "It won't be televised," perfectly summarizing the historic significance of their comeback.
The band will play their first live gig since breaking up on July 4 and 5 at Cardiff, Wales' Principality Stadium, where the tour will get underway. The tour will continue with four performances in Manchester's Heaton Park, the homeland of the Gallagher brothers, on July 11, 12, 19, and 20 after Cardiff. After that, Oasis will perform on July 25 and 26, as well as August 2 and 3, at London's renowned Wembley Stadium. On August 8 and 9, the band will play in Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium. August 16 and 17 in Dublin's Croke Park will mark the grand finale of the U.K. and Ireland leg.
Oasis announced the imminent release of a Deluxe 30th Anniversary Edition of their pioneering debut album, Definitely Maybe, along with the news of their upcoming tour. August 30, which is exactly thirty years and one day after the original album's premiere, is when this special version is scheduled to be released.
Oasis revealed intentions to take their Oasis Live '25 tour to other continents later in the year, hinting at a global celebration of their three decades in music, so the enthusiasm doesn't finish in the U.K. and Ireland.
Oasis, who formed in Manchester in 1991, have been hugely successful since then, leaving their mark on rock history with classic classics including "Wonderwall," "Champagne Supernova," and "Don't Look Back in Anger." They were able to accumulate over 12 billion streams globally thanks to these songs, which also cemented their place as chart stalwarts.
In addition to their numerous noteworthy live appearances throughout the globe, Oasis's headline performances at the Glastonbury Festival in 1995 and 2004 further solidified their historical relevance.
The band teased fans with a slew of cryptic social media messages ahead of this momentous revelation, creating a great deal of excitement and conjecture. Their fan base was buzzing when they finally confirmed the reunion with a post that included the announcement date and time.
Liam Gallagher fuelled the reunion rumors in the days leading up to the announcement by cryptically posting on X, the old name of Twitter, saying, "I never did like that word FORMER." This was an obvious reference to the current conversations around the band's possible reunion.
In order to honor Oasis's heritage with its fans, the Gallagher brothers have put aside their disagreements following years of speculation and exuberant expectation. On August 31 at 9 a.m. local time in the United Kingdom and an hour earlier in Ireland, tickets for the Oasis Live '25 tour will go on sale.
