‘The Great Wait Is Over’, Oasis Are Back After A 16-Year Hiatus

The unthinkable has happened. After years of rumours about a potential reunion, Liam and Noel Gallagher have buried the hatchet to reform Oasis for a 2025 tour.

Earlier this week, the iconic Britpop band teased a huge announcement across their various social media channels before releasing a statement declaring, “The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned. The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised.”

After splitting up in 2009, the band will be hitting the road in 2025, playing 14 shows across the UK and Ireland. For some, this tour came as a bit of a shock as the Gallagher brothers have been infamous for their hatred of one another.

After Liam teased the idea of a reunion in 2023, Noel called his brother a “little bit disingenuous” and a “coward”. Liam shot back at his brother, tweeting that “[Noel is] full of shit he HATES oasis fans doesn’t mind them buying his records.”

While the Gallagher brothers have reunited, according to a report published in The Sun, it doesn’t look like any other original members of Oasis will be joining the tour. Instead, it’s been reported that the brothers will be backed by members of Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds.

This announcement also comes a few days ahead of the 30th anniversary of Oasis’ debut album, Definitely Maybe. Released on August 29th 1994, the album would reach multi-platinum status in multiple countries, spawning huge hits like ‘Supersonic’, ‘Live Forever’ and ‘Cigarettes & Alcohol’.

Will Oasis Bring Their Reunion Tour To Australia?

At this stage, it’s too early to tell. However, an Australian tour isn’t totally out of the question.

While the band has been clear that these UK and Ireland gigs will be their only shows in Europe, an official statement noted that “Plans are underway for Oasis Live ’25 to go to other continents outside of Europe later next year”.
