Oasis are back, well sort of. They aren’t back quite yet. But what they have done though is announce that ‘Live ’25’, a reunion tour film will be made. It will be produced by Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight.
The upcoming tour marks the first time Liam and Noel Gallagher have shared a stage in 16 years, and if history is anything to go by, it will not be smooth sailing.
The ‘Live ’25’ tour, announced last year, will see them hit stadiums across the UK and Ireland in July and August. They’ll play multiple nights at Manchester’s Heaton Park, Wembley Stadium, Cardiff’s Principality Stadium, Dublin’s Croke Park, and Edinburgh’s Murrayfield Stadium. It’s their only European run before heading to North America, South America, Australia, and Asia.
Now, a film is in the works. Directed by Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace—the duo behind LCD Soundsystem’s ‘Shut Up And Play The Hits’—it will be distributed by Sony Music Vision. No release date yet, but given the scale of the tour, expect big production and plenty of drama.
Knight’s involvement adds another layer. His work on Peaky Blinders proved he can craft gritty, cinematic storytelling. Whether ‘Live ’25’ leans into the nostalgia or digs into the Gallagher brothers’ inevitable tensions remains to be seen, but it’s not just another tour documentary.
The anticipation around this tour has been massive, with the huge demand for ticket sales reflecting that. Many have been waiting decades for this moment and it has finally arrived.
The tension has been slowly building since the iconic rock band announced they were reforming. Given they have now been apart longer than they were ever together, the expectations are very high. But at the same time no one expects the Gallagher brothers to suddenly play nice. But that’s part of the appeal. Whether ‘Live ’25’ is a victory lap or just another chapter in the band’s long history of chaos, it’s going to be worth watching either way.
