Britpop legends Oasis kick off their long-awaited reunion tour tonight in Cardiff, marking their return to the stage after 16 years apart.

Oasis is officially back. The iconic Britpop band launches its 41-date Live '25 reunion tour tonight at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium, Wales, their first show since their dramatic 2009 split.

The Gallagher brothers, Noel and Liam, are reuniting alongside original bandmates for what is being promoted as a one-off global tour, reigniting excitement among fans despite years of feuding.

The two opening nights in Cardiff will be followed by 19 shows across the UK and Ireland, before the band hits stages across North and South America, Asia, and Australia—culminating in Brazil this November. 

While the reunion has thrilled fans, it hasn't been smooth sailing. Ticket sales sparked online chaos and political criticism over pricing tactics, with some paying £355 for standing tickets and resellers listing prices as high as £6,000. Over 50,000 resold tickets were cancelled by the band in protest.

No new music has been announced, but the tour’s raw nostalgia and the possibility of onstage drama between the famously fiery siblings are more than enough to fuel anticipation.
