Oasis are making their reunion considerably bigger in 2027. Liam and Noel Gallagher have confirmed a 38-date international stadium tour spanning nine countries, with five nights in Glasgow, an 11-show Manchester residency, four concerts at Knebworth and a return to the United States.
Oasis Live ’27 begins May 21 at Celtic Park and runs through September 19 at Knebworth, with Richard Ashcroft joining every date as special guest. The official tour announcement largely takes the reunion into cities that were not part of Oasis Live ’25.
The expansion follows a first reunion tour that sold more than 2.2 million tickets and grossed over $405 million, according to Pollstar. Instead of repeating that itinerary, Oasis are concentrating the next phase around long stadium runs and locations with deep connections to the band’s history.
One place that will not be added is Glastonbury. A conspicuous opening in the Manchester schedule fueled speculation about a possible June 27 appearance, but festival co-organizer Emily Eavis has now ruled out Oasis for 2027.
Manchester Gets an 11-Night Oasis Residency
The scale of Oasis Live ’27 becomes clearer when the 38 shows are broken down by location.
Oasis will begin with five nights at Celtic Park in Glasgow before moving to Manchester for 11 concerts at the Etihad Stadium. The hometown run starts June 4 and continues through June 26, effectively turning much of the month into an Oasis stadium residency.
The tour then moves through mainland Europe with two-night stops in Munich, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Paris and Rome. August brings six U.S. concerts split evenly between Gillette Stadium outside Boston and Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
September is built around two venues with particularly strong rock history: two nights at Ireland’s Slane Castle followed by four concerts at Knebworth.
| Location | 2027 shows |
|---|---|
| Glasgow | 5 |
| Manchester | 11 |
| Munich | 2 |
| Barcelona | 2 |
| Amsterdam | 2 |
| Paris | 2 |
| Rome | 2 |
| Boston area | 3 |
| Las Vegas | 3 |
| Slane Castle | 2 |
| Knebworth | 4 |
The concentration is deliberate. With Manchester as the major exception, the Live ’27 itinerary pushes the reunion into locations that did not host the band during the 2025 comeback.
That gives the second tour a different shape. Rather than another broad lap through familiar markets, Oasis are building extended engagements around a smaller number of stadiums while adding European cities and two new U.S. destinations.
Knebworth Brings the Reunion Full Circle
No stop on the 2027 schedule carries more weight in Oasis history than Knebworth.
The band played two concerts there in August 1996 during the peak of (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?, performing to roughly 250,000 people across the weekend. Millions reportedly applied for tickets, turning Knebworth into one of the defining live events of the Britpop era and a measure of how enormous Oasis had become.
The shows arrived less than two years after the release of Definitely Maybe. By Knebworth, songs including “Live Forever,” “Wonderwall,” “Don’t Look Back in Anger,” “Champagne Supernova” and “Some Might Say” had pushed the band from British rock phenomenon into something approaching a generational event.
Just over three decades later, Oasis will return to the same grounds for four shows across two September weekends.
The Guardian describes the dates as a return to the site of the band’s greatest live triumph. The fourth Knebworth concert on September 19 is currently the final show on the entire Live ’27 schedule.
Richard Ashcroft will support all four nights, adding another connection to the music surrounding Oasis at their mid-1990s peak.
The relationship runs deeper than sharing a tour poster. Noel Gallagher dedicated “Cast No Shadow” from (What’s the Story) Morning Glory? to Ashcroft, then frontman of the Verve. Three decades later, Ashcroft will be the sole special guest across all 38 announced Oasis shows.
The 2027 concerts do not need to recreate Knebworth 1996 to make the location meaningful. Oasis are returning with an audience that now spans people who saw the band during its original run, listeners who followed Liam and Noel separately after the 2009 split and younger fans who had never been able to see Oasis before the reunion.
Emily Eavis Rules Out Glastonbury 2027
The Manchester schedule created an immediate question because of one unusually convenient day off.
Glastonbury runs June 23 through June 27 in 2027. Oasis are scheduled at the Etihad Stadium on June 22, June 25 and June 26, but have no concert listed for Sunday, June 27, the final night of the festival.
That gap was enough to revive speculation that Liam and Noel might make the trip to Worthy Farm for a Pyramid Stage headline appearance.
Emily Eavis has now shut down the idea.
When a fan asked Glastonbury’s co-organizer to say she had booked Oasis, Eavis replied, “Sorry Jimmy, not this time!”, as Radio X details.
The answer follows Eavis’ earlier confirmation that all three Glastonbury 2027 headliners have already been booked. She has not identified them publicly, although she previously ruled out Madonna as well, The Guardian noted.
Liam Gallagher had also dismissed the Glastonbury speculation. The open date remains on the Oasis calendar, but it is not currently a Glastonbury booking.
Ticketing Changes After the 2025 Backlash
Demand for Oasis Live ’27 is expected to be enormous, but the ticketing process looks different from the sale that accompanied the original reunion announcement.
There is no conventional open general sale. Fans first had to register for an opportunity to receive a unique code tied to a particular city and purchasing window. Registration closed September 17, with onsales scheduled between September 25 and 27.
Prices are also being published in advance and fixed.
The Ticketmaster guidance lists standard UK tickets beginning at £71.50 and reaching £266.60 depending on venue and category, including fees. VIP, hotel and coach packages are priced separately.
There will be no dynamic pricing for the 2027 UK dates, Time Out confirms.
The changes follow the controversy surrounding the first reunion sale in 2024, when some fans spent hours in online queues before reaching tickets priced substantially higher than they had expected.
The UK Competition and Markets Authority subsequently investigated Ticketmaster’s handling of the sale. The regulator did not find evidence that Ticketmaster had used an algorithmic dynamic-pricing model in the way the term was widely understood at the time.
Instead, the CMA raised concerns about how ticket categories and prices were presented to customers. It later secured changes from Ticketmaster requiring clearer pricing information and more accurate descriptions of ticket tiers.
Resale is being restricted too. Ticketmaster’s Face Value Exchange will automatically limit listings to the amount originally paid, including applicable fees and taxes. UK ticket holders will also be able to use Twickets at the original purchase price.
The official ticket guidance says those resale options will become available closer to the tour.
That will be particularly relevant for Manchester and Knebworth, where the combination of hometown significance, history and enormous reunion demand is likely to make tickets among the most sought-after of the entire run.
The 2025 Reunion Became a Touring Giant
The decision to expand Oasis again makes considerably more sense when placed against the numbers generated by Live ’25.
The tour marked Liam and Noel Gallagher’s first performances together since Oasis split in 2009. What began as one of rock’s least expected reunions quickly became one of the biggest touring events of 2025.
More than 2.2 million tickets were sold, with Pollstar putting the gross above $405 million. The publication ranked Oasis Live ’25 as the second-highest-grossing tour of the year, and the run later received Major Tour of the Year at the Pollstar Awards.
The success was significant for another reason. Before opening night, one of the biggest questions surrounding the reunion was whether Liam and Noel could actually sustain Oasis across a lengthy international tour after years of public hostility between the brothers.
The tour made it through its scheduled run, and Live ’27 now pushes the reunion well beyond the scale of a one-time comeback.
For now, however, the expansion remains centered on concerts rather than a new Oasis studio album. Noel has indicated that new music is not currently part of the plan, leaving the reunion focused on the catalog that made the band enormous in the first place.
That distinction matters. Oasis are functioning again as a major touring act without requiring a new album to justify another cycle of stadium dates.
Oasis Live ’27 Goes on Sale Next
The immediate next step is not another tour announcement but the ticket sale.
Fans who registered before the September 17 deadline will find out whether they have access to the staggered onsales running September 25 through 27. Successful applicants receive non-transferable codes connected to specific cities and purchasing windows, according to Ticketmaster’s instructions.
As currently announced, Oasis Live ’27 consists of 38 concerts across nine countries with Richard Ashcroft supporting every show.
The tour begins May 21 at Celtic Park, moves through Manchester and mainland Europe, reaches the United States in August and finishes with Slane Castle and Knebworth in September.
Glastonbury is not part of that schedule despite the June 27 opening that initially fueled speculation, and no additional Oasis dates have been confirmed.
For now, the final destination remains Knebworth. Oasis are scheduled to close Live ’27 there on September 19, more than three decades after the concerts that became shorthand for the band at its 1990s peak.
