Oasis are already heading to the fourth city on their iconic reunion tour – isn’t time flying!
After kicking off their Oasis Live ’25 Tour in Cardiff on July 4, the Britpop band has performed in their hometown of Manchester, London and now they are heading to Edinburgh.
The highly anticipated reunion tour was announced last August which sent fans into an absolute frenzy, with some mega fans waiting for hours in virtual queues.
Around ten million people tried to secure tickets for their run of UK and Ireland shows, as fans came up against inflated ticket prices due to dynamic pricing and other sales issues.

Now, Liam, Noel, and Paul Arthurs, aka Bonehead, together with Andy Bell, Gem Archer, and Joey Waronker, are heading to Edinburgh’s Murrayfield Stadium for three nights of Nostalgia-filled tunes, kicking off on August 8.
Before the band head to Edinburgh, however, Oasis have taken to social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, to “call out” to fans. They wrote: “DOCUMENTARY CALL OUT Get involved here.”
Details on the post read: “Is there a particular Oasis song, story, or moment that has deep meaning for you? We want to hear your stories… A life-changing moment, a love, a loss, a heart-break, or a break for freedom. Contact the documentary team at oasis-film.com”
