The reunion tour rolls on: Oasis have announced a trio of shows to take place in Asia next year, the latest gigs added to their Live ‘25 reunion tour.
The Gallagher brothers will head to Seoul, South Korea on Oct. 21. for a show at the Goyang Stadium before heading to Tokyo, Japan for a pair of shows at the Tokyo Dome on Oct. 25 and 26. Tickets for both shows will go on sale on Nov. 29 from the band’s website.
The announcement was made on the band’s social media with messages to fans in both regions. “Korea. Our new best friends. Wait just a little while. Oasis coming soon,” they wrote, adding “Everyone in Japan. We haven’t forgotten about you boys.”
Noel and Liam began teasing their shows in the region earlier this week with a billboard campaign, similar to how they’ve previewed other dates on their global tour. The pair last performed in Japan and South Korea in 2009, with shows in Nagoya and Osaka, as well as a night at Seoul’s Olympic Gymnastics Arena.
The announcement takes the number of dates on the band’s Live ‘25 tour dates up to 41. The global jaunt will kick off at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales on July 4, 2025 before heading throughout the U.K. and Ireland, then to North America, Asia, Australia, and Latin America. There has been no word of any additional dates to be announced. The final date of the tour is slated to take place with a pair of shows at Estádio Morum BIS in Sao Paulo, Brazil on Nov. 22-23.
Oasis last released music in 2008 with what now stands as their final album, Dig Out Your Soul, before splitting a year later. Lead songwriter/guitarist and occasional vocalist Noel and lead singer Liam had successful respective solo careers in the ensuing decades and announced a reunion in late August with a set of U.K. and Ireland tour dates. The onsale process was marred by long queues and the use of Ticketmaster’s controversial “dynamic pricing” model, which the band have since said will not be used on any further dates on the tour.
