The news of a reunion has driven Oasis fans wild over the last few days, with many taking to social media to share their excitement.

Some die-hard fans have been left worried that they won’t be able to get their hands on tickets in time.

But on Thursday morning, Oasis’ official Instagram account revealed that additional dates have been added to the tour due to the huge demand.

They wrote: “Due to unprecedented demand, three new UK dates will be added to Oasis Live ‘25.

“Heaton Park – July 16th, Wembley – July 30th, Edinburgh – August 12th.

“Tickets on go on sale this Saturday, 31st August at 9am BST.”

Tickets for the shows in Cardiff, Manchester, London, Edinburgh and Dublin go on sale on Saturday morning – with a presale ballot that opened on Tuesday for 24 hours until 7pm on Wednesday.

Insiders told The Sun that extra concerts will be announced once this run sells out.

A total of 1,066,888 tickets will be available over the 14 gigs with demand set to be four times that.

A source said: “These shows will sell out in less than three minutes. Extra dates will be added for sure.”

Music insiders told The Sun how excitement levels between the Gallaghers reached fever-pitch at 8am on Tuesday when an online post confirmed Monday’s Sun story that Oasis were reforming.

Earlier this week Wembley’s famous arches were lit up in blue and white in a nod to Noel and Liam’s devotion to Manchester City.

Noel, 57, was spotted outside a North London studio yesterday. Liam, 51, performed at Sunday night’s Reading Festival.

New photographs of the pair were also published, with insiders telling The Sun the top-secret snaps were taken three weeks ago in London.

A second source said: “Once the deal was signed seven weeks ago, Noel and Liam confirmed they would meet in person for a shoot.

“The shoot happened around three weeks ago and the few people in the room signed non-disclosure agreements to stop it leaking.

“Noel and Liam haven’t had an easy relationship but they were very comfortable with each other.

“They were messing around and having a laugh. You could feel the magic and chemistry. Being with them in that studio felt like being transported back to the 1990s.”

The band’s founder Alan McGee yesterday told Virgin Radio that the brothers’ mum Peggy, 81, was a major reason for the reunion.

He said: “I’m sure she is behind the whole thing.

“Peggy is great, she is rocking on.”

He added of the brothers: “They’re really professional. I don’t think it (falling out) will be an issue.”

Insiders also said Liam and Noel’s children were key in the shows coming together.

Noel’s daughter Anais, 24, was with Liam before he went on stage on Sunday.

She is also close to Liam’s sons Lennon, 24, and Gene, 23, who said earlier this month they had discussed their parents reforming Oasis.

Gene said of Anais: “We have jokes about it. She knows what her dad is like and I know what my dad is like. Hey, we’re a big happy family everyone.”

Tickets for the tour will go on sale on Saturday at 8am in Dublin and 9am for the UK.

The band start at 74,500-capacity Cardiff Principality Stadium on July 4 and 5.

Next will be 80,000 Heaton Park in hometown Manchester on July 11, 12, 19 and 20.

Oasis will play to 90,000 sellouts at Wembley Stadium on July 25, 26 and August 2 and 3.

Then come Edinburgh’s 67,144-capacity Murrayfield Stadium on August 8, 9, and Dublin’s 82,300-seater Croke Park on August 16, 17.

On Monday, Spotify revealed that streams of Oasis music had rocketed by 160 per cent globally in a week thanks to fans listening to songs from their eight No1 albums.

Music sources have told The Sun that bands including Fontaines DC and Kasabian are among acts being discussed to open the shows.

A source said: “Opening for Oasis is the hottest ticket in town.

“Talks are ongoing with groups like Fontaines DC and Kasabian, as well as Gene Gallagher’s band Villanelle who opened for Liam’s Definitely Maybe tour.

“As Liam would say, the chance to perform at those shows would be ‘biblical’.”
