Oasis confirm second leg of reunion tour after weeks of social media teasers

After weeks of posting teasers on social media and underneath the Manchester sky, Oasis have confirmed a second leg of their smash hit reunion tour for summer 2027.

The band will return to the scene of their legendary 1996 gigs at Knebworth House to play four nights at the 125,000-capacity venue in September next year.

They will also play a 11-night residency at the home of their beloved Manchester City in June, after kicking off the tour with five gigs at Glasgow's Celtic Park in May.

The announcement dropped on Monday afternoon alongside a new trailer and photo of the band. "Start the celebrations!" said a message on the band's social media.

"After a period of reflection, 'The Most Damaging Pop Cultural Force In Recent British History' has declared itself fit for purpose and will once again return to lift the spirits of the people.

"Come witness the fitness. It shall be a sight to behold."

Oasis will return to Slane Castle in County Meath, Ireland, for two dates in September, after performances in Europe in July and the US in August.

The newly confirmed dates mark the next phase of Oasis's comeback following their acclaimed 2025 reunion tour, which made an estimated £300 million at the box office.

A new ticket registration process, similar to that used for Glastonbury Festival, has been launched in a bid to avoid the noise and confusion of last time around.

The registration period began on Monday with the announcement and closes at 16:00 BST on Thursday 17 September.

In the UK, tickets will go on on sale across Friday 25, Saturday 26 and Sunday 27 September.

Renewed interest in Oasis recently saw their second album (What's The Story) Morning Glory? officially overtake the biggest-selling album by their heroes The Beatles in the list of the UK's most popular albums of all-time.

And Wonderwall, from that album, became a bittersweet England World Cup anthem this summer.

Excitement for Knebworth has been growing for years - ever since it was rumoured to be on the itinerary for Oasis's 2025 tour.

Earlier this summer, it emerged that the band's promoters had applied for an events licence that would cover the Knebworth gigs.

Other big artists to have performed at the grounds of the listed country house venue include Led Zeppelin, Queen, Sir Paul McCartney, Metallica and, in 2022, Liam Gallagher as a solo act.

Oasis made history over two nights in 1996, but in 2003, Robbie Williams beat their combined attendance record by playing three consecutive nights, drawing a total crowd of 375,000 people.

That record now looks set to be broken again.

This is history - as Noel once put it - now repeating itself.
