The Australian leg of Oasis’ huge ‘Live ‘25’ tour came to an end on Saturday (November 8) in Sydney.

Over 320,000 fans saw the Britpop icons on their stops in the country as part of their reunion tour. They played three nights at Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium on October 31 and November 1 and 4 before two nights at Sydney’s Accord Stadium on November 7 and 8, supported by Brisbane indie rockers Ball Park Music on all dates. 

“Thanks for putting up with us. We know we were dickheads sometimes,” Liam Gallagher told the audience in Sydney (via Billboard). “Your support has put us back on the map. Respect! You’ve got a lovely fucking country. See you again.”

While no shows for 2026 have been announced yet, Liam has previously teased the potential for more gigs. On September 27, he told gig-goers at Wembley Stadium – near the end of their most recent UK show, “I wanna thank you lot for keeping the faith and putting this band back on the map. See you next year.”

Oasis have almost finished touring for the year with a few South American dates remaining. And rumours of more shows have been rife in recent months – particularly that the band could play Knebworth or the Etihad Stadium next year, with the 30th anniversaries of their huge Knebworth and Maine Road falling in 2026.

Remarkably, a British peer in the House of Lords seemed to accidentally reveal that Oasis would play Knebworth next summer last month before backtracking. On October 22, Lady Taylor of Stevenage stood up and claimed that the band would play five back-to-back anniversary gigs at Knebworth House next year.

She then told The Guardian, “I was speaking hypothetically following speculation that they would play Knebworth again as they did in August 1996. I understand the band have not confirmed this.”

The Australia tour, meanwhile, became one of the highest-attended in Australia this year, and sensors at the Seismology Research Centre in Melbourne reportedly even picked up tremors during the shows (per 7NEWS Melbourne).

James Young, the owner of Cherry Bar, one of Melbourne’s most iconic music venues – which Noel Gallagher reportedly wanted to buy himself in 2002 (per The Age) – praised the band on social media too, calling the week of Oasis’ Melbourne dates the bar’s “biggest weekend and biggest week on record.”

He said: “The darkest hour is before the dawn, Melbourne and Cherry Bar needed a hero and who knew that it would come in the shape of a couple of ‘no f#cks given’ Mancunian larrikins?!”

A moment at the first Melbourne show, however, caused controversy with a fan launching a flare into the crowd. Liam later took to X (Twitter) to call the fan in question a “massive c**t”, adding: “You are 1 seriously fucked up individual and you will get yours trust me.”

Oasis are off to South America later this week, with two shows at Estadio Mâs Monumental in Buenos Aires, Argentina on November 15 and 16. They’re then playing Estadio Nacional Julio Martínez Prádanos in Santiago, Chile, on November 19, before two gigs at MorumBIS in São Paulo on November 22 and 23 to round off the year.

Bonehead will be rejoining them after the guitarist, real name Paul Arthurs, took a break from the tour to continue his cancer treatment. He was given the all-clear from tonsil cancer back in 2022, but shared at the start of October that he was diagnosed with prostate cancer earlier this year, and would sit out of Oasis’ Asia and Australia shows so he could have “the next phase of care”. 

During those shows, the band performed with an honorary cut-out of Bonehead. In his absence, Mike Moore from Liam’s solo band filled in.
