In a move set to send seismic waves through the music world, Britpop titans Oasis are officially reforming for a historic, five-night residency at the legendary Knebworth Park in the summer of 2025. The announcement confirms the long-awaited reunion of warring brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher, three decades after their iconic 1996 performances at the same hallowed ground.
A source close to the band revealed the monumental plans are finally locked in, stating: "The deal is done. It’s happening. The plan is to do five huge nights over one weekend next year." The insider added that the mammoth undertaking is being viewed as a celebratory event, marking 30 years since their legendary two-night stand that cemented their status as rock and roll royalty.
A Weekend That Will Define a Generation, Again
Logistics for the event are being planned on an unprecedented scale. The source confirmed the ambitious schedule: "They’ll do two nights one day, then have a day off, then another two, then the final one on the third day." This structure is designed to accommodate the millions of fans expected to descend upon Hertfordshire, with demand predicted to shatter previous records.
The original 1996 Knebworth concerts were a cultural landmark, with an estimated 2.5 million people—a staggering 4% of the British population—vying for just 250,000 tickets. The new shows are poised to eclipse even that frenzy, promising a weekend of pure, unadulterated Britpop nostalgia and anthems like "Wonderwall" and "Don't Look Back In Anger" that defined a generation.
From Feud to Festival: The Brothers' Truce
The reunion signals a monumental thaw in the famously frosty relationship between Liam and Noel. After years of public spats and bitter accusations following the band's 2009 split, the brothers have reportedly been in direct communication to finalise the details. This suggests a professional truce strong enough to deliver what fans have been desperately demanding for over a decade.
While the official announcement is still pending, the music industry is already ablaze with anticipation. This isn't just a tour; it's a national event, a homecoming for one of Britain's most beloved and influential bands. For fans who missed the magic the first time around, or for those who want to relive it, Knebworth 2025 is set to be the musical event of the decade.
