Oasis will be playing Dublin's Croke Park on August 16 and August 17, 2025, as part of the domestic leg of its Oasis Live '25 world tour, the band announced today, Tuesday, August 27.
Confirming the Irish and UK tour dates, Oasis, the world-famous English rock group that split about 15 years ago, ended years of feverish speculation about a reunion.
As well as Dublin, Oasis, fronted by brothers Noel Gallagher and Liam Gallagher, will hit Cardiff, Manchester, London, and Edinburgh next summer.
The band's European tour dates are already being deemed "the hottest tickets of the decade," with RTE reporting that hotel rooms in Dublin were selling out within minutes of the announcement on Tuesday.
The buzz kicked off on Sunday when Oasis, noted for such hits "Wonderwall," "Don't Look Back in Anger," and "Champagne Supernova," posted to social media a cryptic message that just said “27.08.24” and “8 am.”
The wait was worth it - on Tuesday morning, Oasis confirmed “This is it, this is happening” and announced 14 concert dates for next summer, concluding with two shows in Dublin’s Croke Park.

Oasis was formed in Manchester in 1991 and they released their first album "Definitely Maybe" in 1994. The following year, they released "(What's the Story) Morning Glory?" which catapulted them to superband status in Britain and Ireland.
The concert announcements came almost 15 years to the day that Noel Gallagher announced via a message on the band's website that he was leaving Oasis.
"It's with some sadness and great relief to tell you that I quit Oasis tonight," he wrote on August 28, 2009.
"People will write and say what they like but I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer."
The Dublin shows will be a sort of Irish homecoming for brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher, whose parents are both from Ireland - mother Peggy is from Charlestown in Co Mayo, and father Tommy is from Duleek in Co Meath.
In 1996, Noel - who once played Gaelic football in Croke Park as a child - recalled going to Ireland in his youth during an appearance on RTE's "The Late Late Show."
