Oasis Confirms 2025 Reunion Tour Across UK And Ireland After 15-Year Hiatus; Check Dates HERE
Rock’s biggest comeback was confirmed recently when Oasis announced that they will reunite for a 14-date tour of the UK and Ireland in 2025.
The Britpop vets, however, won’t be headlining the Glastonbury Festival as was rumored over the weekend, nor will they play 10 dates at Wembley and Etihad Stadium, respectively. Instead, the shows will take place in July and August across Cardiff, London, Manchester, Edinburgh, and Dublin. Tickets for Oasis’ reunion gigs will go on sale at 9 a.m. on August 31, with prices to be revealed on the same day.
A press release billed the dates as the “domestic leg” of the tour, informing fans that “plans are underway” for it to go beyond Europe later next year. Of the famously sparring brothers’ decision to reunite after a decade and a half, the press note said that “there has been no revelatory moment that has ignited the reunion—just the gradual realization that the time is right.”
For those who may not know, Oasis, which was formed in 1991, consists of Noel and Liam Gallagher. After years of successful stints, the brothers parted ways in 2009 after a backstage physical fight between them ahead of their performance at a French festival.
Announcing their reunion tour via X today, the band said: “The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned. The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised.”
The dates for their 2025 UK and Ireland tour are:
July 4 and 5, Principality Stadium, Cardiff; July 11, 12, 19, and 20, Heaton Park, Manchester; July 25, 26, and August 2, 3, Wembley Stadium, London; August 8 and 9, Murrayfield Stadium, Edinburgh; and August 16, 17, Croke Park, Dublin.
The Gallagher brothers had been teasing the news of the reunion tour on social media in recent days, sharing a clip of the date 27.08.24 in the same font as their band’s logo.
The clip was also shown at the end of Liam’s headline set at the Reading Festival last weekend. Despite their 15-year-long inactivity, Oasis enjoys significant popularity, evident from their 21.6 million Spotify listeners.

Foo Fighters Put My Hero Royalties To Use By Doing THIS After Donald Trump Plays Track Without Permission During RFK Jr Rally
Foo Fighters will reportedly donate the royalties received from the My Hero song to Kamala Harris’ Presidential Fund, after the recent unauthorized use of their song by Donald Trump at the RFK Jr. rally.
In what can only be characterized as a pretty bold and principled stance, rock band Foo Fighters is quite indignant over former US President Donald Trump’s use of their iconic song My Hero at a rally this last Saturday. Thereafter, On Monday, August 26, a spokesperson for the band confirmed to People magazine that the band would, in fact, be directing the royalties from the aforementioned song to Vice President Kamala Harris’ aspirant campaign.
A representative of the band insisted that Foo Fighters never approved of the song being used in that context. The members, including Dave Grohl, Josh Freese, Pat Smear, Rami Jafree, Chris Shiflett, and Nate Mandel, will also be directing the royalties to Governor Tim Walz’s campaign with Kamala Harris.
This incident took place after Trump had played My Hero at an Arizona rally just a few hours after Kennedy endorsed Trump.
On Friday, August 23, the rock band addressed the illegal use of their song on X, responding to a fan who asked if they had allowed Trump to use My Hero. They promptly replied, “No.” The screenshot of the thread was later shared across the band’s social media with a caption that stated firmly, “Let us be clear.”
It is not only the Foo Fighters who do not want to be represented by their music in one of Trump’s promotions. Celine Dion and Beyonce as well have strongly refuted Trump’s use of their music in his campaigns.
As per USA Today, the Lemonade singer had issued a cease and desist letter against the former President for unauthorized usage of her song Freedom featuring Kendrick Lamar. However, the video, which Steven Cheung posted on X of Trump leaving a plane where Beyonce’s song was used, has been taken down following the singer’s legal action.
Previously on August 9th, illegal use of Céline Dion’s performance of My Heart Will Go On from Titanic at a rally held in Bozeman for Donald Trump and his running mate J.D. Vance caused a stir. The singer’s team immediately took action and stated, “In no way is this use authorized, and Celine Dion does not endorse this or any similar use.”
Meanwhile, regarding My Hero, Cheung said to The Hill that he has a license to play the song. He even went as far as to call out Foo Fighters on social media accusing them of pretending and not fact-checking.
