After years of anticipation, Oasis has finally announced its reunion tour, with a string of dates across the UK and Ireland. The band, led by brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher, will perform at some of the country’s most iconic venues, including Wembley Stadium, Principality Stadium, and Murrayfield Stadium. The tour, which was announced on Tuesday, has sent fans into a frenzy, with many taking to social media to express their excitement and gratitude.
The band’s reunion comes after a decade-long hiatus, during which the brothers have made negative comments about each other and have been involved in various solo projects. Noel, the band’s primary songwriter and lead guitarist, quit the band in 2009 after a backstage brawl at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris. The brothers have since made negative comments about each other, with Noel describing Liam as “a moron” and Liam calling Noel a “sniveling little git”.
Despite their differences, the brothers have always maintained that they would reunite one day, and fans have been eagerly awaiting the announcement. The reunion tour is a major coup for fans of the Manchester rockers, who have been some of the most dedicated and loyal in the world. Oasis was one of the most popular and influential bands of the 1990s and early 2000s, with hits like “Wonderwall”, “Don’t Look Back in Anger”, and “Champagne Supernova”.
The band’s music has had a lasting impact on the music industry, with many artists citing Oasis as an influence. The band’s unique blend of Britpop and rock has inspired a generation of musicians, and their music continues to be played on radios and streaming platforms around the world.
The tour will kick off in Cardiff’s Principality Stadium on July 4 and 5, before moving on to Heaton Park in Manchester on July 11, 12, 19, and 20. The band will then perform at Wembley Stadium in London on July 25 and 26, August 2 and 3, before heading to Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh on August 8 and 9. The tour will conclude with two dates at Croke Park in Dublin on August 16 and 17.
Ticket prices for the tour vary across different venues, with the cheapest tickets starting at £73 for Cardiff’s Principality Stadium shows. The most expensive ticket is a £506.25 pre-show party, exhibition, and seated package at London’s Wembley Stadium. Standing tickets at Wembley will cost fans £151.25, while the same tickets in Cardiff and Edinburgh will be slightly cheaper at £150 and £151 respectively.
Fans who are eager to get their hands on tickets can apply for a pre-sale ballot, which has now closed, before Saturday’s general release. The deadline to confirm entry has been extended to 10am BST on Friday, August 30. Successful applicants will be contacted by email with pre-sale access information.
The band’s reunion tour is a major event in the music calendar, and fans are eagerly awaiting the announcement of the setlist. While the band has not announced who will be performing with them as part of Oasis, fans are hoping for a mix of old and new songs, as well as some surprises.
The tour is also a major coup for the venues, which will be hosting some of the biggest and most iconic bands in the world. Wembley Stadium, in particular, is a legendary venue that has hosted some of the biggest names in music, from The Beatles to U2.
Despite the excitement surrounding the tour, there are concerns about high ticket prices and accommodation. Fans are also worried about the prospect of Liam and Noel having another falling out, given their history of negative comments about each other. However, for fans of Oasis, the reunion tour is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see the band perform live again.
In a statement, the band said: “The great wait is over. We are thrilled to announce that Oasis will be reuniting for a series of live shows in the UK and Ireland.
