Oasis have officially wrapped their 2025 Australian tour, marking a triumphant return down under with over 320,000 fans attending across five stadium shows in Melbourne and Sydney.
The Britpop icons played three sold-out nights at Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium, followed by two shows at Accor Stadium in Sydney, concluding on Saturday (Nov. 8). It’s one of the highest-attended rock tours in Australia this year — and one with lasting impact.
“Thanks for putting up with us. We know we were d–kheads sometimes,” Liam Gallagher told the Sydney crowd. “Your support has put us back on the map. Respect! You’ve got a lovely f–king country. See you again.”
The reunion tour has drawn headlines for more than just nostalgia. In Melbourne, seismic sensors at the Seismology Research Centre reportedly picked up tremors during the band’s performances — a rare but real phenomenon caused by thousands of fans stomping and singing in unison.
One of the city’s most iconic live music venues, Cherry Bar, credited the band with sparking a major nightlife revival. “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?!” wrote owner James Young on social media, calling it the bar’s “biggest weekend and biggest week on record.”
While the first show had some minor issues, including a fan launching flares into the crowd, the tour’s reception has been overwhelmingly positive.
Billboard said of the rockers’ first Melbourne gig, “Kicking off with ‘Hello,’ into which Liam inserted the lyrics ‘it’s good to be back,’ then ‘Acquiesce,’ and ‘Morning Glory,’ provided an opening combination that hit hard and fast. ‘G’day,’ Liam told the 58,000 gathered fans, Tina Arena and Jelly Roll among them. ‘Did you miss us? Because we missed you.’”
“This tour is off to a blinder, a result for anyone in the place who wanted, waited for this band, and used the opportunity to go let it all out, and sing at the top of their lungs.”
Oasis now heads to South America for shows in Argentina, Chile and Brazil, before continuing their global tour into 2026.
