Oasis reunion tour 2025

ROCK band Oasis are reuniting after Noel and Liam Gallagher ended their 15-year feud over the phone.

The brothers, whose debut album Definitely Maybe is 30 years old this week, are set for comeback gigs next summer — raking in £400million.

A source said: “This reunion will go down in music history.”

Liam sparked a frenzy over the band’s reunion by tweeting: “I never did like that word former.”

His heavy hint that the rock band are getting back together came after he buried the hatchet with brother Noel following a 15-year feud.

The Sun can reveal they decided to launch a £400million comeback during a series of phone calls.

Huge live concerts across the UK next year are due to be announced this week.

A source said: “Noel and Liam are never going to be the best of friends but they want to bring Oasis back for the fans.

“They aren’t getting any younger and the demand is huge. They decided it was now or never.

“Noel dug his heels in for a long time but has finally caved and agreed to return.

“He spoke to Liam on the phone and they are on the same page.

“They know this reunion will go down in music history.”

Music industry expert Professor Jonathan Shalit OBE, chairman of talent agency InterTalent, told The Sun the reunion could easily rake in more than £400million.

He said: “With tickets, sponsorship, merchandise and filming, I would predict an income for Noel and Liam of over £50million each.

“This is a tour that could easily gross over £400million.”

Liam, who last night headlined Reading Festival, ramped up the excitement yesterday when he told his 3.6 million X followers: “I never did like that word former.”

Speculation had started to swirl on Friday when Liam, 51, quickly deleted a post about his brother Noel, 57, saying: “Let’s not fall out before it’s even begun.”

No other original Oasis member is expected to join the reunion.

Instead the members of Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds will step in for the concerts.

It was understood senior bosses at top UK ticket firms had signed non-disclosure agreements to stop news of the gigs getting out.

A staff member also claimed leave has been banned for the next few weeks due to the predicted demand for tickets.

TCOTU’s Wembley Stadium and Heaton Park in the Gallaghers’ home city of Manchester were rumoured to be lined up.

Glasgow and Cardiff could also host concerts.

If the tour is a hit it could be expanded to European and American cities.

Glastonbury Festival chiefs have also told the band a headline spot at next summer’s event is theirs.

Industry insiders think the success of Taylor Swift’s multi-billion pound Eras tour has encouraged other artists to follow suit.

A source said: “Taylor Swift has shown how much you can make from these tours and others are thinking, ‘I want a piece of that’.”

It was understood that Oasis tickets will start from around £130.

A music insider explained: “The demand for these concerts will be like nothing anyone has seen before.

“The ticket websites are ­bracing themselves because they know millions will be desperate to secure the chance to see Oasis.

“People in the UK and around the world have been waiting for this chance for years.”

Bookmaker Coral suspended any betting on an Oasis reunion after Liam joked with fans online.

When one replied to an article about a rumoured gig location saying “Heaton Park [is] terrible”, Liam declared: “See you down the front you big f***y.”

Their reconciliation will be a shock to fans after years of bickering and snide remarks.

But The Sun understands the brothers are on better terms than they have been for decades.

Noel raised eyebrows last week with rare praise of Liam in an interview ahead of this week’s 30th anniversary of the release of debut album Definitely Maybe in 1994.

He said: “I can’t sing Slide Away and Cigarettes & Alcohol and Rock ’n’ Roll Star and Columbia.

“I can do it but it’s not the same.

“It’s the delivery or the tone of his voice and the attitude.

“I don’t have the same attitude as him.”

Likening their voices to drinks, he continued: “Liam’s is a shot of tequila, right, and mine’s half a Guinness. Mine’s half a Guinness on a Tuesday. It’s alright.

“Liam’s is ten shots of tequila on a f***ing Friday night.”

He added: “When I’d sing a song it would sound good, when he’d sing it, it would sound great.”

Oasis will officially announce the reunion news in the coming days, with Wednesday marking 15 years since Noel quit the band.

Their last concert together was V Festival at Weston Park, Staffordshire, in August 2009.

Aside from Liam and Noel, none of their original bandmates is expected to be part of the reunion.

But Gem Archer, who played rhythm guitar with Oasis from 1999, is set to join up along with drummer Chris Sharrock — with the group in 2008 and 2009.

They have both remained close to Noel and have performed with his High Flying Birds for several years.

They were also in Liam’s Beady Eye.

Another music insider said: “Noel wants the reunion to be with his band, High Flying Birds.

“There have been disagreements over the years with various people who ­performed with Oasis.

“But Noel really rates the musicians who he plays with now and that was part of the deal when it came to agreeing the comeback.”

Fallings-out with original ­drummer Tony McCarroll and his replacement Alan White mean they are unlikely to be involved.

Noel stopped speaking to bassist Andy Bell after quitting the group.

But relations have since thawed and his group Ride supported Noel at a show in Taunton last summer.
