After months of anticipation, the Oasis reunion tour is finally here.
Frontman Liam Gallagher and his older brother, guitarist and songwriter Noel Gallagher, famously feuded for years before they shocked the music world by announcing last August they were getting their band back together.
โThe guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned. The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised,โ read a statement on Oasisโ social media accounts at the time.
The Britpop band will mark its first concerts since 2009 when it takes the stage at Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales, on Friday, July 4, and Saturday, July 5. Shows in the Gallaghersโ native Manchester, England; London; Edinburgh, Scotland; and Dublin are also on the itinerary through mid-August. Later that month, Oasis will come to North America for a brief run of shows.
Hereโs what to know ahead of the tour.
When Does the Oasis Tour Begin?
Oasis’ tour starts with a pair of shows in Cardiff, Wales, on Friday, July 4, and Saturday, July 5.
When Are Oasisโ North America Tour Dates?
Oasis is scheduled to perform in only five North American cities during its tour, beginning in Toronto. It will also visit Chicago; East Rutherford, New Jersey, just outside New York City; Los Angeles; and Mexico City.
Hereโs a look at the dates:
8/24: Toronto โ Rogers Stadium
8/25: Toronto โ Rogers Stadium
8/28: Chicago โ Soldier Field
8/31: East Rutherford, New Jersey โ MetLife Stadium
9/1: East Rutherford, New Jersey โ MetLife Stadium
9/6: Los Angeles โ Rose Bowl
9/7: Los Angeles โ Rose Bowl
9/12: Mexico City โ Estadio GNP Seguro
9/13: Mexico City โ Estadio GNP Seguro
Are Oasis US Tour Tickets Still Available?
With all of the excitement surrounding the Gallaghersโ reunion and Oasis performing for the first time in over 15 years, demand was high for tickets for the tour after they went on sale. Ticketmasterโs website shows no available tickets for any of the U.S. tour dates. A search on the popular resale sites SeatGeek and StubHub shows that a ticket will cost you over $100 at minimum, depending on the city and date.
What Will the Oasis Tour Songs List Be?
There isn’t an answer to that question yet, but if you believe the internet speculation, the band will lean heavily into its first two albums, 1994’s โDefinitely Maybeโ and 1995’s โ(Whatโs the Story) Morning Glory?โ That would make sense, given that Oasisโ biggest hits came from those albums.
Ticket holders are surely hoping the Gallaghers will incorporate some mix of โLive Forever,โ โSupersonicโ and โCigarettes & Alcoholโ (from โDefinitely Maybeโ), plus โWonderwall,โ โDonโt Look Back in Angerโ and โChampagne Supernovaโ (from โMorning Gloryโ), into their set list.
Oasis also has a strong catalog of B-sides, so favorites like โAcquiesce,โ โThe Masterplanโ and others would please longtime fans as well.
