Noel Gallagher spotted for first time since announcing Oasis reunion gigs with Liam as he heads into recording studio

NOEL Gallagher has been pictured for the first time since he and brother Liam announced they have reunited Oasis.

The feuding brothers buried the hatchet after an icy 15 year feud and have sent fans into meltdown in the process.

Today they revealed they will play 14 stadium shows next summer including four at Wembley – their first gigs since Noel left the group in 2009.

And they’ve hinted at a massive American tour after their UK gigs.

This afternoon Noel was seen arriving at a recording studio with his crew carrying boxes and guitar cases in and out of the building.

The songwriter looked relaxed in a grey polo shirt and jeans as he climbed out of a luxury 4×4, alongside a woman in a cream dress.

It comes just hours after new photographs of the Gallagher brothers – the first of them together since the band’s split – were released to promote the tour.

Fans had been eagerly awaiting the news at 8am following The Sun’s exclusive confirmation that the Wonderwall rockers will hit the road in 2025.

Oasis will perform in Cardiff, Manchester, London, Dublin and Edinburgh, confirming the news with the words: “This is it, this is happening.”

They then referred to their long-standing feud as they added the words: “The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned.

“The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised.”

On their page on social media site X, the band told how it will kick off the gigs at Cardiff‘s Principality Stadium on July 4 and 5 before returning to home turf.

Manchester‘s Heaton Park is up next on July 11, 12, 19 and 20.

The brothers – who have bagged 10 UK number one albums between them – will head down south to London‘s Wembley Stadium on July 25 and 26, before picking up the tour there on August 2 and 3.

Next comes August 8 and 9 at Edinburgh, in the Scottish Gas Murrayfield Stadium, before August 16 and 17 gigs in Dublin, at Croke Park.

The shows, which will run through next summer, are expected to rake in £400million – and they will not be televised.

At 8am on Tuesday, the band’s official X account shared: “Oasis will tour the UK & Ireland in summer 2025! Tickets go on sale this Saturday 31st August. IRE 8am IST UK 9am BST.”

The page added: “These dates will be the band’s exclusive European appearances.”

This means that they could have plans to head over to the US for further dates.

They also appeared to quash hopes they’ll headline Glastonbury next year when they told fans their shows “will not be televised”.

The world famous festival on home soil is extensively filmed and covered on telly by the BBC.

However, Glastonbury headliners are not officially announced until after tickets have gone on sale in October.

It is thought both Noel and Liam could each walk away with a £50m slice of the profits.

They both teased an announcement late on Sunday — when the band’s logo appeared on their social media with the date “27.08.24” flickering to read “8am”.

The same message appeared on big screens at Reading Festival following Liam’s headline set, during which he dedicated song Half The World Away to Noel.

Insiders had told The Sun the warring brothers had secretly come together for a photoshoot which would be used to promote the gigs, which are a joint operation between promoters Live Nation and SJM.

Noel, 57, quit the band in 2009 saying he could no longer work with Liam, 51.

A music industry insider said ­this weekend: “Oasis’s comeback tour is going to be absolutely massive and next summer they’re going to be ­taking over the country.

“They will announce four shows at Wembley Stadium today, along with a load more dates across the whole of the UK — including in Manchester, which will be incredibly poignant for them.

“Live Nation and SJM have joined up on the project because it’s so enormous. In short, today there are going to be a ton of tickets available – Noel and Liam want everyone to have the chance to see them.”

We revealed how the project was given the thumbs up just seven weeks ago and everyone involved in the comeback was made to sign non-disclosure agreements to keep details of the tour top-secret.

Our source added: “It was a pinch-me moment to have Noel and Liam together. It has taken a lot to get them to this point but they’re thinking of the fans.

“The shoot was top-secret and barely anyone knew about it. For their fans to see them together again will be an amazing sight, the ­atmosphere in the room was fizzing, it was electric.

“Once the announcement is made and their fans are rushing to buy the tickets, the hard work will start as they get ready to start performing together again.

“It’s something so many people never thought would happen.

“But now the brakes have been taken off and it’s going to be mad.”

Tickets will be available from www.ticketmaster.co.uk, www.gigsandtours.com, www.seetickets.com, and from www.ticketmaster.ie.

The Oasis 25 tour is expected to head to Europe later in the year.
