Oasis emerges from the desert. Brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher, who have been estranged since 2009, announced on Tuesday 27 August the reformation of their legendary Britpop group. They will launch a tour of the United Kingdom and Ireland in the summer of 2025, with around fifteen dates in Cardiff, Manchester, London, Edinburgh and Dublin. Tickets go on sale Saturday morning.“These dates will be the group’s only European appearances,” Oasis clarified in a second message published on X, closing the door to possible concerts in France.

This announcement comes almost thirty years after the album Definitely Maybereleased on August 29, 1994, which launched the group, and fifteen years after their spectacular separation, on August 28, 2009, just before a concert planned at Rock en Seine, in Paris. After their separation, the enemy brothers exchanged barbs for a long time via social networks or the press, before a relative lull in recent times. The group’s fans had regularly fantasized, for years, about a reformation.

On the night of Sunday to Monday, the two Manchester natives had published the same 11-second clip on social networks, with a single message: “08/27/24. 8 am [8 heures]”, hinting at an imminent announcement. Liam Gallagher, 51, had dedicated the Oasis track to Noel, 57 Half The World AwaySunday evening, during a solo concert. After performing several of the group’s hits, he broadcast the message on the big screen “08/27/24. 8 am”.
