Oasis Fans Think Band Is Teasing U.S. Dates With Cryptic Billboard Campaign

If you were one of the millions of Oasis fans who spent the weekend furiously refreshing in an effort to score tickets to one of their first 17 UK reunion shows to no avail, there may be hope on the horizon. After brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher answered long-held prayers for their return after 15 years apart by announcing a series of summer 2025 gigs last week, ecstatic followers lined up to score seats for the shows in Cardiff, Manchester, London, Edinburgh and Dublin that are slated to kick off on July 4.

And while the Gallaghers have not yet announced any dates outside of the UK yet, they did tease last week that, “plans are underway for OASIS LIVE ’25 to go to other continents outside of Europe later next year.”

Those plans appear to be bubbling based on images of billboards that popped up stateside over the weekend that appear to tease U.S. dates. The electronic messages spotted in New York’s Times Square, — which appear to be sponsored by Amazon Music — feature the company’s logo followed by the by-now-ubiquitous new scowly black and white photo of the Gallaghers, along with the hopeful message: “If we need to put up a billboard to get these guys to come to the States, here it is.”

Last week, along with the news of the UK shows, Oasis previewed two new throwback shirts that are available exclusively on Amazon Music.

At press time a spokesperson for Oasis had not returned Billboard‘s request for comment on the billboard or any potential 2025 U.S. dates. After more than one million tickets quickly sold out for the UK shows, a rep hinted over the weekend that more shows may be announced soon, saying, “anticipation for details of the tour’s international dates is now rapidly mounting.”

Oasis split in 2009 after years of massive chart success and tabloid headlines in the UK tied to the Gallagher siblings’ fierce rivalry, with main songwriter older brother Noel quitting the band after a backstage fight with Liam at a show near Paris that year. The brothers, now 57 and 51, haven’t performed live since then, though they often play Oasis songs during their solo gigs and with their side bands and, until last week, continued to snipe at each other online and in the press.
