Tickets for Oasis‘ huge 2025 UK and Ireland reunion tour are about to go on sale. Find everything you need to know below.
The Britpop icons announced a run of comeback shows on Tuesday (August 27), dubbed Oasis Live ’25. Set to take place next summer, the trek will see Liam and Noel Gallagher perform on stadium stages together for the first time in 16 years.
Following strong rumours and reports of the group’s long-awaited return, Liam teased that an Oasis announcement was imminent during his ‘Definitely Maybe’ headline set at Reading Festival 2024 last Sunday (August 25).
The same video was soon posted on the band’s official social media channels, and on the Gallagher brothers’ individual accounts. Then came the news everyone was waiting for: Oasis are back. Here’s everything you need to know about how to get hold of tickets and what to expect from the tour.

Ticketmaster has outlined its strict rules for purchasing tickets – confirming that customers can only order four tickets per household and card.
“Please adhere to published ticket limits. Persons who exceed the ticket limit may have any or all of their orders and tickets cancelled without notice by Ticketmaster at its discretion,” a statement reads.
“This includes orders associated with the same name, e-mail address, billing address, credit card number or other information.”
On August 27, fans were given a window to sign up for a ballot to access a pre-sale. The registration period was later extended following some delays caused by an “unprecedented volume of entries”.
Those who were successful in the ballot have already been notified and have been sent a unique code to access the pre-sale between 7pm BST and 10pm BST on Friday August 30.
“Success in the ballot will not guarantee tickets,” a statement reads. “Tickets will be allocated on a first come first served basis.”
Those who registered for the pre-sale ballot needed to answer a series of questions in an effort to keep it “fair and fan-focused”.
Customers were required to disclose how many Oasis shows they’ve been to (according to the form, this did “not have any bearing on your ballot application”) and were asked: “Who was the drummer in the initial Oasis line-up?” (Your answer for this question must be correct to qualify for the ballot).
Oasis have launched an official partnership with ticket resale platform Twickets for their Oasis Live ’25 gigs (visit here to see what’s on offer). A re-sale option will be available via Ticketmaster as well.
“Ticket resale is permitted at no more than the price you paid (face value + booking fees),” a statement reads.
“Please only use the official resale partners www.twickets.live and Ticketmaster. Selling tickets through unauthorised resale platforms will breach these T&Cs and those tickets may be cancelled.”
Don’t look back in anger if you miss out on tickets this weekend.

Twickets founder Richard Davies told IQ Magazine that he expected a “huge demand” for the upcoming tour but, as the dates are a year away, some fans may be unable to attend once they come around.
“We often see tickets resold due to summer holidays being booked, or if groups of friends all try and get tickets, then some of those friends may want to sell and buy for dates their friends are attending,” Davies explained.
“Our platform offers a way for fans to sell their tickets to other genuine fans, and avoids people having to use sites that allow inflated prices, which the artists and events companies don’t benefit from.”
The Oasis Live ’25 dates are billed as European-exclusive shows for 2025. However, three additional gigs have already been announced for Manchester, London and Edinburgh due to “unprecedented demand”. Many fans hope and believe that more UK and Ireland dates will be released.
The band have also stated that plans are “underway” to announce more world tour dates outside of Europe for 2025.
It was previously reported that the reunited Oasis could play a record-breaking 10 nights at Wembley Stadium – which would surpass Taylor Swift‘s recent eight-night run at the venue on her ‘Eras Tour’. At the time of writing, the Gallaghers are scheduled to perform in the capital across five nights next year.
Unfortunately not. “Despite media speculation, Oasis will not be playing Glastonbury 2025 or any other festivals next year,” a statement from the band on August 28 read.
The update came in response to whispers of a possible return to Worthy Farm next summer. Oasis first headlined Glasto in 1995 – just one year after their debut appearance at the festival.
They returned to top the Pyramid Stage bill in 2004, but the performance received lacklustre reviews from fans and critics alike.
In a press conference from 2008, Noel commented on Oasis’ history at Glastonbury: “We said the last time we [did] Glastonbury, we’ve never really pulled it off at Glastonbury… I don’t think.”
Both Liam and Noel have since performed at Glastonbury as solo artists, with the former’s previous band Beady Eye also having featured on the line-up. Noel last appeared with the High Flying Birds in 2022, and he attended this year’s edition of the festival.
It is expected that co-founding Oasis member Paul ‘Bonehead’ Arthurs will be hitting the road in 2025. A source told The Sun: “Bonehead is confirmed. [Liam and Noel] both wanted him in the fold and he was one of the drivers of the reunion.
“[…] The Oasis family has really come back together. Bonehead is ecstatic.”
Bonehead, who is a regular fixture in Liam’s solo backing band, was asked last year whether he would be up for taking part in an Oasis reunion. “I’m ready, got me dancing shoes,” he responded.
Earlier reports claimed that “no other original Oasis member is expected to join the reunion”, and that “the members of Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds will step in”.
Meanwhile, NME has rounded up all the players who could be drafted in for Oasis Live ’25 – including Paul ‘Guigsy’ McGuigan, Alan White, Gem Archer and Sharrock.
No opening acts have been announced yet, but fans have some theories; Kasabian, Blossoms, Fontaines D.C. and The Lottery Winners are among the names being mentioned.
LCD Soundsystem have been touted as well, after they appeared on a fake tour poster. In June, Noel was spotted side-stage during James Murphy and co’s Glastonbury performance. Could Kneecap be in with a shout? NG saw the Irish rap trio’s set at Worthy Farm too, and said he “couldn’t believe how enjoyable it was”.
Fans have been revisiting Oasis’ final 2009 setlist in anticipation of what they might play next year, but such details are still up in the air. In the meantime, check out NME’s dream setlist for the forthcoming massive gigs here.
