Hell has not frozen, but Oasis reunited.
Fifteen years after their split, brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher have apparently put their differences aside, announcing a string of concerts in the UK and Ireland for 2025. The group announced the Oasis Live '25 tour early Tuesday morning, although North American broadcast details have yet to be announced. It is also unclear which members of the original band will join the Gallagher brothers.
Oasis will perform in Cardiff, Manchester, London, Edinburgh and Dublin in the summer of 2025. A press release notes that these are their only concerts in Europe next year and that “plans are underway for Oasis Live '25 to go to other continents outside of Europe later next year.'
“The guns have fallen silent,” the band said in a statement. “The stars have aligned. The long wait is over. Come and see. It will not be televised.”
The band officially confirmed the reunion after a weekend of rumors and speculation on social media (which just happened to coincide with Reading 2024 festival — which Oasis headlined 24 years ago in 2000 — and the 30th anniversary of their debut album Sure Maybe). Reports began to emerge that the Gallaghers had settled their 15-year feud and would announce a string of 2025 UK concerts
Admittedly, similar rumors have surfaced over the years, and at first, Liam – insatiable poster that he is – appeared to dispel them once again, answering fan questions with “New to me” and “I know nothing.” But eventually Gallagher's tweets became more provocative and open, including the stand-alone message, “I never liked that word BEFORE.”
On Sunday, the Oasis account appeared to confirm something, tweeting the message, “27.08.24, 8 am.”
Oasis were one of the defining bands of the Britpop era and one of the biggest in the world for nearly two decades. During their initial run, between 1991 and 2009, they released seven albums, including classics such as Sure Maybe and (What's the Story) Morning Glory?
The band's scale of success throughout the 90s and 2000s, however, was often only matched by long-standing tensions between Noel and Liam. After the band broke up, the brothers never hesitated to take shots at each other in the press, often insisting that the other was the reason Oasis would never get back together.
Since Oasis broke up, both Gallagher brothers have focused on other projects. Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds have released four albums since 2011, the most recent, Heavens of the Councilwhich arrived last year. Liam, meanwhile, released two albums with the band Beady Eye, followed by three solo records. earlier this year, he abandoned an attempt to collaborate with John Squire.
