Britpop legends Oasis have officially drawn the curtain on their blockbuster 'Oasis Live '25' reunion tour, culminating in a final show in Brazil that has left their global fanbase eagerly anticipating what comes next.
The End of an Epic Comeback
The Mancunian band, fronted by the formerly feuding Gallagher brothers, has stunned the music world over the last five months. Their triumphant return began with a sold-out show in Cardiff back in July and concluded with a spectacular finale in Brazil. In total, the iconic group performed 41 sold-out stadium shows, reigniting the passion of their massive fanbase across the globe.
This tour marked a historic moment, as it was the first time Liam and Noel Gallagher had shared a stage in 16 years, following their well-documented fallout and the band's acrimonious split in 2009. The siblings managed to settle their differences last year, paving the way for this hugely successful reunion.
A Pause for Reflection
As the final notes echoed in Brazil, the band released an official statement addressing rampant speculation about another tour in 2026. Rumours had been swirling about a potential Knebworth residency or shows at Manchester City's Etihad Stadium. However, the band's message was measured, stating simply: "There will now be a pause for a period of reflection."
This ambiguous note was preceded by a more candid update from frontman Liam Gallagher. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), the 53-year-old responded directly to a fan who referenced his previous comment at a Wembley Stadium gig where he told the crowd the band would "see you next year."
Liam clarified his position, writing: "You will see me next year and the year after and so on just not sure yet if it’ll be with oasis we need to sit down and discuss these things." He added a note of frustration, stating, "If it was all up to me then you know we’d be touring till the day we die as it’s the best thing in the world but UNFORTUNATELY it’s not."
Fan Reaction and What's Next
Liam's comments sent a wave of concern through the Oasis faithful. One heartbroken fan replied, "I can't believe you're actually making me tear up over this right now I'm not being dramatic, I'm heartbroken." Another echoed the sentiment, expressing devastation that the 2009 split might have been the last time they saw the band live.
However, other fans adopted a more optimistic view, pointing to Noel Gallagher's apparent happiness on stage during the tour as a sign that he might be open to continuing. One supporter highlighted the most important outcome, writing: "The important thing is that both of you are brothers again and are smashing it on stage. Thank you for coming back."
For now, the future of one of Britain's most beloved bands hangs in the balance. The Gallagher brothers have given the world a legendary reunion tour, but whether this is a permanent new chapter or a one-off victory lap remains the biggest question in music.
