Oasis has added three more dates to its reunion tour of Britain and Ireland, citing “unprecedented demand” for tickets.
The new shows announced on Thursday (Aug 29) are at Heaton Park in the band’s home city of Manchester, England on Jul 16, 2025, at London’s Wembley Stadium on Jul 30 and at Edinburgh’s Murrayfield Stadium on Aug 12.
The Britpop-era rock band is now scheduled to play 17 gigs in Cardiff, Manchester, London, Edinburgh and Dublin starting at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium on Jul 4.
Oasis was one of the dominant acts of the 1990s Britpop era, producing hits including Wonderwall and Don’t Look Back In Anger. Its sound was fuelled by singalong rock choruses and the combustible chemistry between guitarist-songwriter Noel Gallagher and his brother Liam, the band’s singer.
Oasis split in 2009, with Noel Gallagher officially leaving the band after a backstage dustup with his brother at a festival near Paris.
While the Gallagher brothers haven’t performed together since, both regularly perform Oasis songs at their solo gigs. They’ve also each fired off criticisms of the other in the press.
Announcing the reunion on Tuesday, the band said fans would experience “the spark and intensity” that occurs only when they appear on stage together.
The tour will begin Jul 4 and 5 at the Principality Stadium. Oasis will also perform in Manchester, on Jul 11, 12, 16, 19 and 20; in London on Jul 25, 26 and 30 and Aug 2 and 3; in Edinburgh on Aug 8, 9 and 12; and Croke Park in Dublin on Aug 16 and 17.
Tickets go on sale Saturday at 8am (0700GMT, 3am EDT) in Ireland and an hour later in the UK. Fans were also able to apply for a presale ballot to be held on Friday. It’s unclear how many tickets will be issued through the ballot.
Irish promoter MCD says tickets for the Dublin shows will start at €86.50 (US$96) plus booking fee. Prices for the UK gigs have not been announced.
