Oasis confirms Toronto show as part of 2025 reunion tour

After much speculation the Britpop behemoth would be coming to the city, Oasis confirmed Monday it would play the upcoming Rogers Stadium on Aug. 24, 2025.
Backbeat, the word is on the street that Oasis is finally coming to Toronto.
After much speculation the Britpop behemoth would be coming to the city, the English rock band confirmed Monday it would play the upcoming Rogers Stadium on Aug. 24, 2025.
Oasis was one of the dominant British acts of the 1990s, producing hits such as Wonderwall and Don’t Look Back in Anger.
Its sound was fueled by singalong rock choruses and the combustible chemistry between guitarist-songwriter Noel Gallagher and his brother Liam, the band’s singer.
Oasis split in 2009, with Noel quitting the band after a backstage dustup with his brother at a festival near Paris.
While the Gallagher brothers haven’t performed together since, both regularly perform Oasis songs at their solo gigs. They’ve also each fired off criticisms of the other in the press.
Announcing the reunion this summer, the band said fans would experience “the spark and intensity” that occurs only when they appear on stage together. The tour began in the United Kingdom on July 4 and 5.
The band said there were plans for Oasis to perform in “other continents outside of Europe later next year.”
