Besides Munich, the itinerary includes Glasgow, Manchester, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Paris, Rome, the American cities of Boston and Las Vegas, Ireland’s Slane Castle, and Knebworth, where the tour will conclude in September. A world tour, yet only eight countries: the United Kingdom, Germany, Spain, the Netherlands, France, Italy, the United States and Ireland. The tour is organised by Live Nation and SJM, the same promoters who ran Oasis’s 2025 tour.
The band will linger longest at home in Manchester, where eleven consecutive concerts will be held at the Etihad Stadium, while the other European cities, including the Bavarian capital, will get two concert nights each. The Knebworth finale refers back to 1996, when Oasis first played two sold-out shows there for 250,000 spectators. The record for the number of nights at the venue was later set by Robbie Williams, who played three nights there in 2003, but in 2027 Oasis will most likely surpass him: four nights in a row on the same stage.
The band has not yet revealed its full route. For several days in a row, encrypted clips with hints appeared on social media, and an end to the guesswork came with a drone show over Manchester’s Joie stadium, where illuminated drones formed the Oasis logo and spelled out the date of the announcement.
How to get tickets
Tickets will not go on general sale. Instead, a pre-registration system applies, which had to be completed by 17:00 German time on 17 September. Registration itself guarantees nothing: from all applications, participants will be selected at random and sent a personal code that can be neither transferred nor sold. The organisers arrived at this scheme for good reason: a year ago, more than 10 million people from 158 countries vied for Oasis Live ’25 tickets, and rumours of dynamic pricing, although they proved unfounded, caused considerable discontent among fans. According to the tour’s organisers, registration with a code draw is intended both to reduce the load on the sales system and to make it harder to resell tickets at inflated prices.
Ticketmaster will once again act as sales operator, and sales will be spread over three days, so that each code is valid only on the date allotted for its use:
- 25 September;
- 26 September;
- 27 September.
Munich and Oasis: not their first encounter
The current announcement is already the band’s third visit to the Bavarian capital. The first took place on 19 November 1997, when Oasis, on the tour supporting the album “Be Here Now”, played a 75-minute set at the Olympiahalle. Critics regard the performance as one of the best of the entire tour, and it was later released on vinyl. A fragment of the German radio broadcast of that concert was used by the band in one of the teasers for the current announcement.
The second memory is far grimmer. On the night of 1 December 2002, a brawl involving Liam Gallagher and other musicians broke out in the nightclub of the Bayerischer Hof hotel: the vocalist lost several teeth, and the band spent the night at a police station. Because of the singer’s injuries, Oasis had to cancel both the Munich concert and the next show in Hamburg. A reference to that episode also turned up in one of the teasers, among footage of two men fighting, alongside a hint at Barcelona, Glasgow, Amsterdam and Paris. Almost a quarter of a century later, the hotel bears the band no grudge: after the Munich dates were announced, its representative assured the public that the Gallagher brothers remain welcome guests.
From the band’s breakup to the new tour
The band’s own history is more complicated than the itinerary of a single concert tour. In 2009, after a quarrel between the Gallagher brothers backstage at a festival near Paris, Oasis broke up. Only a month earlier, the band had managed to play in Germany at the Melt festival, and until the announced Munich concert dates, that show remained the last the band had played there. For more than fifteen years, neither the press nor Oasis fans themselves seriously expected to see the brothers on the same stage again.
Change began in August 2024, when Oasis announced their reunion. For the first time in sixteen years, Liam and Noel took the stage together in July 2025 in Cardiff, Wales, in front of 73,000 spectators, and then played more than forty stadium shows in the United Kingdom, the United States, South America and Australia. That tour ended in November in São Paulo and, by the organisers’ estimates, brought the British economy around £1 billion. The band also presented a chronicle of the reunion in its documentary “Oasis: Don’t Look Back in Anger”, shown at the Venice Film Festival with both brothers in attendance and subsequently released widely in cinemas.
Why it matters
For Munich, the new Oasis concerts will be a notable event in themselves: the Allianz Arena, opened in 2005 and built for 75,000 spectators, has already hosted the 2012 Champions League final and matches of the 2024 European Championship, but a British rock band of this calibre will perform there for the first time. Judging by the experience of last year’s tour, demand for tickets will easily exceed supply even with two nights in a row, so those who have registered are left to await a personal code and the first sales, which begin on 25 September.
