British rock band OASIS have ended years of feverish speculation by confirming the UK and Ireland dates for the long-awaited domestic leg of their “Oasis Live '25” world tour. OASIS will play Cardiff, Manchester, London, Edinburgh and Dublin in the summer of 2025. The show, which will be the band's only European show next year, is shaping up to be one of their biggest and most sought-after live events of the decade.
“The guns have fallen silent, the stars have aligned, and the long wait is over. Come see us! It won't be televised,” OASIS said in a statement.
Oasis Live '25 is scheduled to take place on continents other than Europe later next year.
The comeback tour will kick off at Cardiff, Wales' Principality Stadium on July 4 and 5 before heading to Manchester for four shows at Heaton Park on July 11, 12, 19 and 20. They'll also play London's Wembley Stadium on July 25 and 26 and August 2 and 3, and Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium on August 8 and 9. The series will conclude in Dublin's Croke Park on August 16 and 17.
Tickets for the UK show go on sale from 9am on Saturday 31 August and can be purchased at ticketmaster.co.uk, gigsandtours.com and seetickets.com, while tickets for the Dublin show will be available on ticketmaster.ie from 8am the same day.
This tour will mark OASIS' first performances in the UK and Ireland in 16 years.
Oasis broke up in 2009 after brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher were reportedly involved in an altercation backstage at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris.
A deluxe 30th anniversary edition of OASIS' classic album “Definitely Maybe” will be released on Friday, August 30th, almost 30 years after the original LP was released on August 29th, 1994.
The Oasis reunion announcement follows a cryptic social media post shared earlier this week, which gave the date August 27th, 2024 and a time of 8am.
“I've always hated the word 'FORMER,'” Liam wrote on “X,” the platform formerly known as Twitter, on August 25.
It is not clear which of Oasis' former official or touring members will perform with the Gallagher brothers at the upcoming shows.
