Dates open with five nights at Glasgow’s Celtic Park, before an impressive 11 gigs at The Etihad in Manchester, followed by shows across Europe.

In August, there are three shows in Boston and three in Las Vegas, and the tour then wraps up with two stops at Slane Castle in Ireland and four at Knebworth.

The announcement comes following their new documentary Don’t Look Back In Anger arriving in cinemas, which was then followed by a teaser campaign that culminated in a drone show over the Etihad .

Now, Noel Gallagher has spoken about when he and brother Liam decided that they wanted to do another tour – revealing that they settled on the idea early into their Live ‘25 tour dates after seeing the massive response from fans.

"We decided to [tour again] after the 2nd Wembley show." Noel Gallagher tells talkSPORT all about the latest Oasis tour amid the 2027 tour dates being released pic.twitter.com/9s1CrjkJ8t — talkSPORT (@talkSPORT) September 14, 2026 “It was after the second Wembley show [on July 26 2025],” Noel told TalkSPORT in a new interview.

“Nobody really knew what was going to happen or how it was going to go.

So we did Cardiff and Manchester, then by the time we got to Wembley, somebody said ‘Well, you know?’ and it was decided we were going to do it.” “It was all set in motion then,” he added, also sharing that they always knew they would announce shows in “Italy, France, Germany and Spain” because the fans there have “been great with us throughout the years”, but only settled on more UK shows during the Live ’25 dates.

As for the newly announced US shows, the legendary songwriter shared that the two cities lined-up for Live ‘27 were places that they were “meant to do last time, but couldn’t for some reason”.

It was from there, Gallagher explained, that the idea of a Live ’27 tour started to take shape and he found himself asking “what about Knebworth?”, particularly because they were “having such a great time, that why wouldn’t we?” Also on the TalkSPORT interview, Gallagher was asked if the band had been working on any new music since rejoining – potentially their first since 2008’s ‘Dig Out Your Soul’ – although he was quick to shut down any rumours.
