You’re hearing it more and more: an Oasis reunion is reportedly happening, but there may be a catch.
According to UK newspaper The Sun, the Oasis reunion will consist of the Gallagher brothers – Liam and Noel – and no other original members.
Sources told the paper that “no other original Oasis member is expected to join the reunion” and claimed that “the members of Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds will step in for the concerts.”
Another article in The Sun claimed that “A deal was put on the table”, and both brothers said yes, to the surprise of those around them.
The Sunday Times reported that London’s Wembley Stadium and Manchester’s Heaton Park have been rumoured to be where Oasis would play multiple reunion shows.
Yesterday, Oasis, Liam, and Noel Gallagher shared a short video on social media in which they teased the news that’s set to arrive today (27 August) at 8 am UK time (that’s 5 pm AEST).

NME reports that Liam Gallagher added fire to the rumour mill at his Leeds Festival headline set on Friday (23 August), where he said: “It is very interesting, innit? It is a very interesting situation we’ve found ourselves in.” At his Reading Festival set, he reportedly dedicated Half The World Away to “Noel fucking Gallagher.”
The current teasers and reports are the closest we’ve ever seen to an actual Oasis reunion getting closer to happening – there have been many close calls in the past.
In May 2023, The Sun reported that there was a proposed deal on the table for a reunion. However, in the week that news broke, Noel called Liam “disingenuous”, and Liam called Noel a “coward” and a “bellend”.
Liam then tweeted again that his brother is “full of shit he HATES oasis fans doesn’t mind them buying his records.”
In 2022, Liam expressed interest in a possible Oasis reunion in an interview with The Times.
“I’d love Oasis to get back together. If it happens, it happens,” he said. “We should never have split up, but we did, and this is where we’re at.”
On their fallout in 2009, Liam added: “I thought we’d be the Stones, doing it until the day we died. We might have had a break, gone off and done our own thing, and then got back on it. For it to implode like that was disastrous. I went off the rails a bit when it happened because it was the thing that glued my life together.”
