Oasis add MORE dates to huge reunion tour due to ‘unprecedented demand’

No great surprise here. Contains affiliate links

Daisy Jackson Daisy Jackson - 29th August 2024

Oasis have added brand new dates to their 2025 reunion tour due to ‘unprecedented demand’.

The group announced their shock comeback earlier this week with 14 shows across the UK and Ireland.

Those included four nights on home turf at Heaton Park as well as gigs at Wembley Stadium and Murrayfield Stadium. As Liam Gallagher would say – biblical.

Oasis have now announced that they’re adding three more dates to their run of shows.

Registrations for pre-sale tickets ended last night, and it looks like the demand has been high.

Given that fans have waited 15 long years to see Liam and Noel Gallagher put aside their differences and get back on the road, this is no great surprise.

They wrote today: “Due to unprecedented demand, three new UK dates will be added to Oasis Live ‘25.”

The huge Oasis tour will now include five nights at Heaton Park, with the group adding a show on 16 July to their tour dates.

Another night at Wembley Stadium on 30 July, and one in Edinburgh on 12 August, have also been announced today.

Yesterday, Oasis also dropped a hint that a world tour might be on the way…
