Liam and Noel Gallagher will perform together for the first time in 16 years at concerts in five cities across the UK and Ireland.

The Oasis reunion tour was announced via social media, with shows planned for Cardiff, Manchester, London, Edinburgh, and Dublin in July 2025.

The announcement came two days before the 30th anniversary of their debut album "Definitely, Maybe."

The band's statement read: "The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned.

The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised."

Ticket sales begin on Saturday. While Glastonbury 2025 is not included in the announced dates, there are expectations for the tour to expand globally.

Liam, 51, hinted at the reunion on social media.

During his recent solo performance at Reading Festival, he dedicated the Oasis song "Half The World Away" to Noel, 57.

Spotify reported a 160% increase in Oasis streams globally between Monday and the previous week, anticipating the official announcement.

Oasis's enduring popularity is evident in their 21 million monthly Spotify listeners, nearly double that of their Britpop rivals Blur.

Promoters are confident in the band's ability to sell out multiple nights at large venues like Wembley Stadium.
