Oasis adds two extra London dates to comeback tour
Oasis has announced two extra concert dates for their comeback tour of the United Kingdom and Ireland due to “phenomenal” demand from fans desperate to see the band live for the first time in 15 years.
The group, whose debut album Definitely Maybe was released 30 years ago, split in 2009 when lead guitarist and main songwriter Noel Gallagher said he could no longer work with singer Liam after a string of public spats between the brothers.
The band initially announced 14 shows, with the first due to take place in Cardiff in July 2025, followed by nights in Manchester – where the band was formed in 1991 – London, Edinburgh and Dublin.
Oasis added three UK dates to the tour last week with extra concerts in Manchester, London and Edinburgh.
It has now added two more concert dates in London, the band said on X.

Fans waited long hours in virtual queues last weekend to get their hands on tickets, only to find that prices had been hiked as part of a “dynamic pricing” scheme.
“Tickets will be sold by a staggered, invitation-only ballot process,” the band said.
“Applications to join the ballot will be opened first to the many UK fans who were unsuccessful in the initial on sale with Ticketmaster.”
Announcing the new dates, the band said “it needs to be made clear that Oasis leave decisions on ticketing and pricing entirely to their promoters and management” and added they had “at no time had any awareness that dynamic pricing was going to be used”.
