Noel and Liam Gallagher are heading to Ireland for the next leg of their huge sold-out comeback tour after performing in Edinburgh, Scotland last week
Thousands of die-hard Oasis fans will descend on Dublin for the first of two sold-out gigs at Croke Park today (16 August) and tomorrow (17 August). Noel and Liam Gallagher will perform for 80,000 people at Ireland’s largest stadium at Croke Park.
Die-hard fans will get the opportunity to experience the much-loved duo singing their biggest hits, with temperatures hitting up to 24C. Health officials have advised revellers to wear their bucket hats, with high UV levels expected amid warm and dry sunny spells in Dublin on Saturday.
This will be the very first time either Noel, 58, and Liam, 52, will be performing in the country since 2009 and it no doubt holds a special meaning considering their parents, Peggy and Thomas were born there.

Their mother was born in Mayo and their father hails from Meath, with the duo often spending many childhood summers in their ancestral home. The pair have previously claimed their trips to Ireland had a big impact on their music and lyrics.
Noel previously claimed Oasis’ debut 1994 album Definitely Maybe was “the sound of five second-generation Irish Catholics coming out of a council estate.”
Their Ireland shows come after they performed three sold-out gigs at the Murrayfield stadium in Edinburgh, Scotland last week, with Scottish fans having their chance for pure Oasis mania in the country’s capital.
After Ireland, Noel and Liam will travel to Canada and America for shows in Toronto, Chicago, LA and Mexico City. The brothers will return to London for two more big gigs at Wembley towards the end of September, before entering the last leg with shows in Asia, Australia and South America. Their last show is scheduled for 23 November in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
The Oasis Live’ 25 Tour began on 4 July at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff before they headed to their native Manchester with five shows at Heaton Park. They then did five shows in London’s Wembley’s Stadium before their current dates in Scotland.

The pair announced their comeback tour in August 2024, with them sharing the news on social media and saying: “This is it, this is happening. The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned. The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised.”
This is the first time Liam and Noel have performed together in 15 years, following their highly-publicised fall-out which led to them icing each other out of their lives.
However, fans may be able to see much more of Oasis beyond their mega reunion as they are said to have been inundated with offers for shows next year. Fans are hoping Oasis will head to Knebworth House next year as they mark the 30th anniversary of their two historic shows there. It would mean they would tip rival Robbie Williams off the post as the artist to have played the most shows at the Hertfordshire venue.
According to The Sun, Oasis has been offered four dates at Knebworth along with a possible residency at their beloved Manchester City’s Etihad Stadium. Fake posters of a 2026 tour have already appeared online as fans hold out hope for a chance to see the brothers back in action.
However, it all boils down to whether Liam and Noel are really up for carrying it on. “They’ll be having a well-earned holiday as soon as this tour finishes later this year,” a source told the publication.
“As for 2026, they’ve seen the speculation, they’ve heard about the offers and they know what the fans want. But it’s ultimately up for them to decide.”
