Oasis has added three extra dates in the U.K. to its recently announced summer 2025 tour, citing “unprecedented demand.”

The tour will mark the brothers’ first performances together in over 15 years

The extra dates come after Oasis dispelled rumors on Wednesday that they would also be headlining Glastonbury Festival next summer. “Despite media speculation, Oasis will not be playing Glastonbury 2025 or any other festivals next year,” the band said in a statement posted to social media. “The only way to see the band perform will be on their Oasis Live ’25 World Tour.”
The Gallagher brothers announced the tour on Tuesday, which originally included four dates at London’s Wembley Stadium and four at Manchester’s Heaton Park, with other stops including Cardiff, Edinburgh and Dublin. Tickets go on sale at 9 a.m. local time on Aug. 31 via Ticketmaster, GigsAndTours.com and SeeTickets.com.
“There has been no great revelatory moment that has ignited the reunion – just the gradual realization that the time is right,” a press release stated. “Yet the timing must be a subconscious influence. This Thursday represents 30 years to the day since their electrifying debut album ‘Definitely Maybe’ was released, while 2025 will see the equally essential second record ‘(What’s the Story) Morning Glory?’ reach that same anniversary.”
