Industry insiders are claiming that Oasis are planning a spectacular 12-night residency at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester next summer, with an announcement expected within weeks. The Manchester Evening News understands that the residency would take place across May and June 2027, and could potentially be expanded to up to 20 dates.
Insider Confirms 12-Night Run
A music industry insider told the MEN: "It will be 12 nights at the Etihad Stadium across May and June. It's just massive for Manchester and for the local economy. They could even add more dates to that as well, there's talk of up to 20. The wider tour is also going to include a return to Knebworth."
Hotel Booking Backs Up Rumours
The MEN has also been told by a separate source that a luxury city centre hotel has been entirely booked out from the end of May through June for the arrival of the band and their touring entourage. This appears to support the suggestion of dates being booked across May and June for the tour.
Parklife Festival Date Shift
Adding further weight to the speculation, Manchester's Parklife festival announced a major change to its dates for 2027. Traditionally held across a weekend in June, next year the festival will take place in July for the first time, on July 10 and 11. This move frees up the Etihad Stadium, which is also the festival's usual venue, for the rumoured Oasis residency.
Liam Gallagher's Tantalising Tease
On Friday morning, Liam Gallagher added further fuel to the fire with a jokey response to fans on social media. Replying to a fan amid football banter around the England v Mexico game, he wrote: "You say that now but soon as we announce the gig nxt wk I mean nxt year I mean happy Christmas you’ll be running around like headless chickens trying to get a ticket so stop acting tuff."
