Oasis is set to embark on a long-awaited reunion tour in 2025, with bassist Andy Bell confirming his involvement. Bell, who previously played with Oasis from 1999 to 2009 and in Liam Gallagher's post-Oasis project Beady Eye, brings valuable experience in managing the dynamics between Liam and Noel Gallagher. He confirmed his participation in an interview with Austrian newspaper Oe24, stating his excitement for the tour. Bell is expected to be joined by Beady Eye bandmate Gem Archer, along with Paul ‘Bonehead’ Arthurs on guitar and drummer Joey Waronker, completing the live band lineup.

The highly anticipated tour features 41 dates booked for 2025, commencing at stadiums across the UK and Ireland in July before extending to multiple continents. Support acts include Cast, Richard Ashcroft, Cage The Elephant, and Ball Park Music. The band, led by brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher, will play three sold-out shows at the Scottish Gas Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh on August 8, 9, and 12. The immense demand for tickets was evident, with 10 million people from over 100 countries attempting to purchase them, leading to a record-time sell-out.

The UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has threatened legal action against Ticketmaster for “misleading” sales methods during the Oasis Live ’25 ticket sale. The watchdog's concerns include the sale of ‘platinum’ tickets, which were priced up to 2.5 times higher than standard tickets without offering additional benefits and often located in the same stadium areas. This practice allegedly misled customers into believing these tickets were superior. Furthermore, Ticketmaster is accused of failing to inform consumers about two different price categories for standing tickets, releasing cheaper ones first before more expensive options, causing confusion and frustration among fans who paid significantly over face value.

Oasis, through a statement, disclaimed responsibility for the dynamic pricing fiasco, asserting that decisions on ticketing and pricing were left entirely to their promoters and management, and they were unaware dynamic pricing would be used. They acknowledged that while initial plans aimed for a fair fan experience, the unprecedented demand made it impossible to achieve, with all parties striving to deliver the best outcome.

Regarding the future, band manager Alec McKinlay has definitively ruled out new material from Oasis and any additional tour dates. This contradicts earlier social media claims by Liam Gallagher, who had suggested a new album was
